# CLAUDE.md — Gnubok
## Project Overview
gnubok is a Swedish-focused accounting SaaS for sole traders (enskild firma) and limited companies (aktiebolag). It implements double-entry bookkeeping compliant with Swedish accounting law (Bokforingslagen), including VAT handling, tax reporting, and 7-year document retention. Multi-tenant: each user can own or be a member of multiple companies, optionally grouped into teams (for consultants).
**Tech stack**: Next.js 16.1.5 (App Router), React 19.2.3, TypeScript 5 (strict), Zod 4, Supabase (PostgreSQL + RLS + email/password + TOTP MFA auth), Tailwind CSS 4 + shadcn/ui, Vercel hosting, Docker (self-hosted).
**Integrations**: Enable Banking (PSD2), TIC Identity, Anthropic SDK, AWS Bedrock, OpenAI, Resend, Sentry, Svix, web-push, Upstash Redis, Google Drive, JSZip, sharp, Framer Motion, Recharts, PDF.js, `@react-pdf/renderer`, xlsx, fuse.js, ics.
**Path alias**: `@/*` maps to the project root. **Language**: All code, comments, and commit messages in English. **License**: AGPL-3.0-or-later.

## Key Architectural Relationships
- **Multi-tenant model**: `companies` owns all business data. `company_members` links users to companies (owner/admin/member/viewer). `teams` group companies. Context resolved via `gnubok-company-id` cookie in `lib/supabase/middleware.ts`.
- **All journal entry creation** routes through `lib/bookkeeping/engine.ts`. Lifecycle: `createDraftEntry()` → `commitEntry()` (atomic voucher via `commit_journal_entry` RPC). `createJournalEntry()` does both. Reversal: `reverseEntry()`. Correction: `correctEntry()` in `lib/core/bookkeeping/storno-service.ts`.
- **API routes** emitting events must call `ensureInitialized()` (`lib/init.ts`) at module level to load extensions and wire handlers.
- **Event bus** (`lib/events/bus.ts`) is a module-level singleton using `Promise.allSettled`. 36 event types in `lib/events/types.ts`. Persisted to `event_log` table (30-day TTL).
- **Supabase clients**: browser (`client.ts`), server cookies (`createClient()`), service role (`createServiceClient()`), cookieless service role for API keys (`createServiceClientNoCookies()`). Pagination: `fetchAllRows()`.
- **Extension system**: Opt-in via `extensions.config.json`. Core runs with zero extensions. Enabled: `enable-banking`, `email`, `arcim-migration`, `tic`, `mcp-server`, `cloud-backup`.
- **Core reports** (`lib/reports/`): balance sheet, income statement, trial balance, general ledger, AR/supplier ledger + reconciliation, VAT declaration, journal register, monthly breakdown, continuity check, opening balances, KPI, NE-bilaga, INK2, SIE export, full archive, salary journal, vacation liability, avgifter basis.
- **Types**: Shared types in `types/index.ts` (~2,570 lines). Import via `import type { T } from '@/types'`. Event types in `lib/events/types.ts`. Extension types in `lib/extensions/types.ts`.
- **Error messages**: `lib/errors/get-error-message.ts` maps to Swedish (Zod → Postgres → HTTP → fallback).
---
## Multi-Tenant Architecture
- **companies**: Business unit. All business data has a `company_id` column.
- **company_members**: Roles `owner`/`admin`/`member`/`viewer`, source `direct`|`team`.
- **teams**: Consultant grouping. Team members auto-sync to company_members via DB triggers.
- **user_preferences**: Stores `active_company_id`.
**Context resolution** (`lib/supabase/middleware.ts`): cookie → `user_preferences.active_company_id` → first membership. RLS uses `user_company_ids()` helper.
**Invitations**: `company_invitations`/`team_invitations` with `gnubok_inv_` tokens (SHA-256, 7-day TTL). See `lib/auth/invite-tokens.ts`.
---
## Authentication
Supabase Auth: email+password (primary), magic link (fallback), TOTP MFA. MFA enforced **application-side** (middleware + API routes), not in RLS.
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_SELF_HOSTED=true` → MFA never enforced
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_REQUIRE_MFA=true` → middleware redirects to `/mfa/enroll` or `/mfa/verify` until AAL2
**API route auth** (`lib/auth/require-auth.ts`): `requireAuth()` returns `{ user, supabase, error }`, enforces MFA on hosted.
**API keys** (`lib/auth/api-keys.ts`): SHA-256 hashed, `gnubok_sk_` prefix. Scoped via `TOOL_SCOPE_MAP`. Rate limited 100 RPM via `validate_and_increment_api_key` RPC.
**Cron auth** (`lib/auth/cron.ts`): `verifyCronSecret()` constant-time comparison.
---
## Core Bookkeeping Engine
The engine (`lib/bookkeeping/engine.ts`) is the most critical system. All accounting flows route through it.
**Lifecycle**: `createDraftEntry()` → `commitEntry()` (atomic voucher via `commit_journal_entry` RPC). `createJournalEntry()` does both. `reverseEntry()` for storno; `correctEntry()` (`lib/core/bookkeeping/storno-service.ts`) for corrections.
**Engine files**: `transaction-entries.ts`, `invoice-entries.ts` (with `generatePerRateLines()` for mixed-rate), `supplier-invoice-entries.ts`, `vat-entries.ts`, `currency-revaluation.ts`, `mapping-engine.ts`, `booking-templates.ts`/`counterparty-templates.ts`, `propose-payment-lines.ts`/`propose-send-lines.ts`, `handlers/supplier-invoice-handler.ts`.
**BAS data** (`bookkeeping/bas-data/`): Full BAS 2026 chart by class (1–8) + SRU mapping.
### Key BAS Accounts
`1510` Accounts receivable | `1930` Business bank account | `2013` Private withdrawals (EF) | `2440` Accounts payable | `2611`/`2621`/`2631` Output VAT 25%/12%/6% | `2641` Input VAT | `2645` Calculated input VAT (EU) | `2893` Shareholder loan (AB) | `3001`/`3002`/`3003` Revenue 25%/12%/6% | `3305`/`3308` Export/EU service revenue
### VAT Treatments
`standard_25`, `reduced_12`, `reduced_6`, `reverse_charge`, `export`, `exempt`
Invoice items support individual `vat_rate` values (mixed-rate invoices). Use `getAvailableVatRates(customerType, vatNumberValidated)` from `lib/invoices/vat-rules.ts`. VIES validation via `lib/vat/vies-client.ts`.
### VAT Declaration Rutor (SKV 4700)
`VatDeclarationRutor` type maps to momsdeklaration:
- **Ruta 05**: Domestic taxable sales (3001+3002+3003)
- **Ruta 06/07**: Unused, always 0
- **Ruta 10/11/12**: Output VAT 25%/12%/6% (2611/2621/2631)
- **Ruta 39/40**: EU services / Export (3308/3305)
- **Ruta 48**: Input VAT (2641/2645)
- **Ruta 49**: Moms att betala/återfå = (10+11+12+30+31+32+60+61+62) − 48
---
## Core Services (`lib/core/`)
- `bookkeeping/period-service.ts` — Fiscal period lifecycle management (open, close, lock)
- `bookkeeping/year-end-service.ts` — Year-end closing procedures
- `bookkeeping/storno-service.ts` — Reversal/correction entry generation
- `tax/tax-code-service.ts` — Tax code definitions and rates
- `audit/audit-service.ts` — Audit trail and compliance logging
- `documents/document-service.ts` — Document attachment lifecycle (WORM storage with version chains)
---
## Accounting Guard Rails
These rules exist for legal compliance, enforced by database triggers. **Never violate them.**
1. **Committed entries are immutable.** Once `status: 'posted'`, cannot be edited or deleted (DB trigger).
2. **Never delete posted entries.** Use `reverseEntry()` (storno) to cancel.
3. **Every entry must balance.** `sum(debits) === sum(credits)`, both `> 0`.
4. **Voucher numbers are sequential.** Assigned atomically via `commit_journal_entry` DB RPC. Never set manually.
5. **Voucher gap documentation.** BFNAR 2013:2 requires documented explanations for gaps (`voucher_gap_explanations` table, `detect_voucher_gaps` RPC).
6. **Period lock enforcement.** DB trigger blocks writes to closed/locked periods. Company-wide lock date enforced via `enforce_company_lock_date()` trigger.
7. **7-year document retention.** DB triggers prevent deletion of documents linked to posted entries.
8. **Storno, never edit.** Use `correctEntry()` from `lib/core/bookkeeping/storno-service.ts`.
9. **Use `Math.round(x * 100) / 100`** for monetary calculations. Never `toFixed()`.
10. **Always use engine functions.** Never insert directly into journal tables.
11. **Account numbers are strings.** `'1930'`, never `1930`.
---
## Extension System
Extensions are opt-in plugins in `extensions/general//`, controlled by `extensions.config.json`. Core runs with zero extensions. `npm run setup:extensions` generates static imports in `lib/extensions/_generated/` (auto via `predev`/`prebuild`). Extensions **cannot** use dynamic imports.
**Available (12)**: Enabled — `enable-banking` (PSD2), `email` (Resend), `arcim-migration`, `tic` (org lookup), `mcp-server`, `cloud-backup` (Google Drive). Disabled — `inbox-smart-match`, `invoice-inbox`, `push-notifications`, `calendar`, `skatteverket`, `example-logger`.
**Registration** (`lib/extensions/registry.ts`): Singleton. `register()` wires handlers. `get(id)`, `getAll()`, `getByCapability(key)`.
**Context** (`lib/extensions/context-factory.ts`): `ExtensionContext` = `userId`, `companyId`, `extensionId`, `supabase`, `emit()`, `settings`, `storage`, `log`, `services`.
**API routes**: `app/api/extensions/ext/[...path]/route.ts` catch-all → `/api/extensions/ext/{extensionId}/{routePath}`. Path params as `_paramName` query.
**Service patterns**: Interface registration (email — `registerEmailService()`/`getEmailService()`) or services record (extension exposes via `services` property).
**Creating**: `npx tsx scripts/create-extension.ts --name my-ext --sector general --category operations --description "..."`.
---
## MCP Server & API Keys
gnubok exposes its bookkeeping engine as an MCP server for Claude Desktop/Code.
**MCP extension** (`extensions/general/mcp-server/`): 35 tools covering transactions, categorization, customers/suppliers, invoices, accounts, fiscal periods, reports (trial balance, GL, BS, IS, AR/supplier ledger, VAT, KPI), reconciliation, salary runs, AGI, document upload. JSON-RPC 2.0. Endpoint: `/api/extensions/ext/mcp-server/mcp`.
**API keys** (`lib/auth/api-keys.ts`, `api_keys` table): SHA-256, `gnubok_sk_` prefix, scoped via `TOOL_SCOPE_MAP`, 100 RPM via `validate_and_increment_api_key` RPC. `createServiceClientNoCookies()` — all queries filter by `company_id` (defense in depth).
**OAuth 2.1** for Claude connectors: `.well-known/oauth-protected-resource` + `.well-known/oauth-authorization-server` discovery; `/api/mcp-oauth/authorize`, `/token` (PKCE), `/register`. Stateless AES-256-GCM auth codes (`lib/auth/oauth-codes.ts`). Single-use via `oauth_used_codes`. Allowlist: `claude.ai/api/*`, `claude.com/api/*`, `localhost`.
**npm package** (`packages/gnubok-mcp`): Stdio-to-HTTP bridge; users run `npx gnubok-mcp` with API key.
**Tool authoring conventions** (enforced by tests):
- Every `inputSchema` must declare `additionalProperties: false` at the top level. Guarded by `extensions/general/mcp-server/__tests__/strict-schemas.test.ts`.
- Tool descriptions must be ≤ 280 chars (guarded by `output-schema.test.ts`). No `Args:` / `Returns:` / `Examples:` blocks — those belong in JSON Schema, not description prose. Use agent-native hints like "Use to…" / "Call X first" instead.
- Completion-signal pattern: write tools that stage operations return `STAGED_OPERATION_SCHEMA` (`server.ts:495`) — `{ staged, risk_level, actor, message, preview, period_status?, next? }`. The `staged: true` boolean is the explicit completion signal; agents must not infer completion from prose. Do NOT introduce a parallel `{ success, shouldContinue, output }` envelope.
- Tools that touch a fiscal-period-bound date (categorize, mark paid, create voucher, correct/reverse entry, approve supplier invoice) pass `dateForPeriodCheck` to `stagePendingOperation` so the response includes `period_status: { period_id, status: open|locked|closed, lock_date }`. Widgets and agents use this to disable writes without round-trips.

## API Route Pattern
```typescript
import { createClient } from '@/lib/supabase/server'
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server'
import { ensureInitialized } from '@/lib/init'
import { validateBody } from '@/lib/api/validate'
import { MySchema } from '@/lib/api/schemas'
ensureInitialized() // Module-level — loads extensions for event emission
export async function POST(request: Request) {
const supabase = await createClient()
const { data: { user } } = await supabase.auth.getUser()
if (!user) return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Unauthorized' }, { status: 401 })
const result = await validateBody(request, MySchema)
if (!result.success) return result.response
// Business logic... always filter by company_id (defense in depth alongside RLS)
return NextResponse.json({ data: result })
}
```
- Dynamic route params: `{ params }: { params: Promise<{ id: string }> }` (Next.js 16)
- Response shapes: `{ data }` for success, `{ error }` for failures
- Zod schemas in `lib/api/schemas.ts` — 30+ schemas with shared primitives (uuid, isoDate, accountNumber, nonNegativeAmount)

---
## Testing
**Framework**: Vitest 4, `node` env, tests in `__tests__/`. Scope: `lib/` and `app/api/`. No component/E2E tests.
**Helpers** (`tests/helpers.ts`): `createMockSupabase()`, `createQueuedMockSupabase()`, `createMockRequest()`, `parseJsonResponse()`, `createMockRouteParams()`, plus fixture factories (`makeTransaction`, `makeJournalEntry`, `makeInvoice`, `makeCustomer`, `makeSupplier`, `makeSupplierInvoice`, `makeFiscalPeriod`, `makeReceipt`, `makeDocumentAttachment`, `makeCompany`, `makeCompanySettings`, `makeTaxCode`, `makeSIEVoucher`, `makeBankConnection`, etc.).
**Patterns**: Always mock `@/lib/supabase/server`. `vi.clearAllMocks()` + `eventBus.clear()` in `beforeEach`. Test auth (401), validation (400), 404, 500, happy path.
**pg-real**: Parallel Vitest project for triggers/RPCs/RLS using real Postgres (CI: `supabase/postgres:15`, migrations replayed). Local: `npm run test:pg`. File convention `*.pg.test.ts`. Helpers: `tests/pg/setup.ts` (`getPool()`, `withUserContext()`), `tests/pg/fixtures.ts` (`seedCompany()`, `insertDraftJournalEntry()`, etc.). **Required**: any PR touching a trigger/RPC/RLS/DEFERRABLE must include or extend a `*.pg.test.ts`.
---
## Database & Migrations
**Location**: `supabase/migrations/` — 118 files. Early migrations use sequential numbering (`20240101000001`–`20240101000038`), later ones use real timestamps.

### Migration Rules
1. Enable RLS + policies using `user_company_ids()` for company-scoped data
2. Add `updated_at` trigger via `update_updated_at_column()`
3. UUID PKs: `DEFAULT uuid_generate_v4()`
4. Company ownership: `company_id UUID REFERENCES companies NOT NULL` + `user_id UUID REFERENCES auth.users ON DELETE CASCADE NOT NULL`
5. Never modify existing migrations — create new ones
6. Never modify enforcement triggers (migration 017) — legally required
7. Apply via Supabase MCP `apply_migration`
8. Always end with `NOTIFY pgrst, 'reload schema'` when altering table structure
---
## Skills, Git & CI
**Skills**: Always use `/frontend-design` for new UI. Use `vercel:deploy` for deployment. Use `/supabase-migration` for new migrations. Use `/erp-api-route` for new API routes. Use `/create-extension` for new extensions. Use the Swedish domain skills (`swedish-sie-import-export`, `swedish-accounting-compliance`, `swedish-vat`, `swedish-invoice-compliance`, `swedish-payroll`, `swedish-year-end-closing`, `swedish-financial-reporting`, `swedish-sru-filing`, `swedish-asset-accounting`, `swedish-project-accounting`, `swedish-tax-planning`) for accounting domain questions.
**Git**: Conventional commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `refactor:`, `test:`, `docs:`). Atomic commits, branch from `main`.
**CI**:
- `.github/workflows/core-build.yml` — resets extensions to empty, runs build + test, verifies no core code imports from `@/extensions/` directly.
- `.github/workflows/swedish-compliance-review.yml` — Swedish accounting compliance review on PRs touching bookkeeping/reports/tax logic.
- `.github/workflows/docker-publish.yml` — pushes images to GHCR on main.
**Docker** (`.github/workflows/docker-publish.yml`): Pushes to GHCR (`erp-mafia/erp-base`) on main push. 4-stage Dockerfile (base → deps → builder → runner) with Node 22 Alpine. Runtime env placeholder replacement via `docker-entrypoint.sh`. Docker Compose with app + supercronic cron service.
---
## Deployment
### Vercel (Hosted)
Cron jobs in `vercel.json`: deadline status (`6:00`), invoice reminders (`8:00`), tax deadlines (yearly Jan 2), enable-banking sync (`5:00`), document verify (`3:00`), sandbox cleanup (`4:00`), event log cleanup (`2:00`, 30-day TTL), cloud-backup auto-sync (hourly).
### Docker (Self-Hosted)
- `Dockerfile`: 4-stage Node 22 Alpine build with standalone output
- `docker-compose.yml`: App service + supercronic cron scheduler
- `docker-entrypoint.sh`: Validates required env vars, replaces build-time placeholders in `.next/static/` JS
- Extension presets: `docker/extensions.self-hosted.json`, `docker/extensions.hosted.json`
### Environment Variables
**Required**: `NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL`, `NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY`, `SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY`, `NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL`, `CRON_SECRET`
**Auth**: `NEXT_PUBLIC_REQUIRE_MFA` (set `true` on hosted), `NEXT_PUBLIC_SELF_HOSTED` (set `true` for Docker)
**Extension-specific** (only when extension is enabled): `ENABLE_BANKING_APP_ID`/`ENABLE_BANKING_APP_KEY`, `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, `OPENAI_API_KEY`, `RESEND_API_KEY`, `VAPID_PUBLIC_KEY`/`VAPID_PRIVATE_KEY`
**Optional**: `SENTRY_DSN`, `SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN`
## Other
Never create a NUL/nul file: \gnubok\NUL

## Design Context
### Users
Swedish sole traders (enskild firma) and small business owners (aktiebolag) who need to manage their own bookkeeping. They are not accountants — they are professionals (consultants, freelancers, shop owners) who want to stay compliant without hiring one. They use gnubok in short, focused sessions: sending an invoice, categorizing bank transactions, filing a VAT declaration. Speed and clarity matter — every second spent in the app is a second away from their real work.
### Brand & Aesthetic
**Editorial monochrome.** Paper-white surfaces, hairline borders, serif headlines. The interface should feel like a well-made instrument — considered, quiet, confident. Anti-references: enterprise software (SAP/Oracle density), neon SaaS coldness.
- **Palette**: Achromatic foundation. Pure white background, warm beige (`40 11% 89%`) for chips / active sidebar / hover / secondary buttons. Achromatic primary (no cool tint). Semantic colors (`--success` sage, `--warning` ochre, `--destructive` terracotta) exist but are **data-only** — they appear in charts and financial numbers (positive/negative deltas), never as chrome backgrounds. In chrome, only `--destructive` survives.
- **Typography**: Hedvig Letters Serif for display headings, Geist (sans) for body, forms, and tables. Hedvig is single-weight (400) — do not apply `font-medium` to display text; its natural high-contrast strokes carry the weight. Tabular numbers everywhere financial data appears.
- **Surfaces**: Cards sit flat on the page — no shadow, full-opacity hairline border (`border-border`), `rounded-lg` (8px). Card background matches page background; the border carries hierarchy. Dark mode drops the warm tint from secondary for a pure-gray mood shift; light mode keeps the beige.
- **Spacing**: Generous whitespace. Dense data (tables, ledgers) uses tighter spacing but never feels cramped.
- **Motion**: Functional, not decorative. No press-scale, no hover-lift, no spring overshoot. Hover state is a flat background shift (`bg-secondary/60`). `transition-colors duration-150` is the default. Stagger animations on list entry are fine. Respect `prefers-reduced-motion` (already wired).
- **Icons**: Lucide — 15px in navigation, slightly larger in empty states.
### Design Principles
1. Clarity over cleverness — Swedish labels, obvious hierarchy.
2. Earned minimalism — remove what doesn't serve the task, keep compliance context.
3. Numbers are first-class — tabular-nums, alignment, positive/negative clarity.
4. Trust through consistency.
5. Speed is a feature — optimize for the 90-second session.
### Accessibility
WCAG AA (4.5:1 text, 3:1 UI). Keyboard-navigable + visible focus rings. Respect `prefers-reduced-motion`. Color never sole state indicator. Touch targets ≥40px (44px for mobile-critical). Icon-only buttons need `aria-label`.
### Design System Tokens
These conventions are locked. Don't reinvent them in new code; deviating from them on existing pages is a regression.
**Spacing scale.** Only use Tailwind values `1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12`. **Forbidden:** `2.5`, `5`, hardcoded pixels in page logic.
| Token | Tailwind | Use for |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | `1` | icon padding |
| 8 | `2` | tight inline gaps |
| 12 | `3` | dense list rows, badge gaps |
| 16 | `4` | default form / control / grid gap |
| 24 | `6` | **card padding default** (`p-6`) |
| 32 | `8` | **between page sections** (`space-y-8` on page root) |
| 40 | `10` | hero spacing |
| 48 | `12` | top of page after header |
Compact metric cards (e.g. dashboard tiles, salary KPI row) use `p-4`. Detail cards use `p-6`. Never mix `p-5`.
**Layout.**
- Sidebar width: `md:w-64` (256px). Main content offset: `md:pl-64`.
- Main container: `max-w-5xl mx-auto px-5 py-8 md:px-8 md:py-10` (via `components/dashboard/MainContainer.tsx`).
- Page root: `
`.
**Primitives — always use these, don't hand-roll.**
| Need | Component | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Page title + action | `components/ui/page-header.tsx` `PageHeader` | Use this, not bespoke `
` + `
` blocks. Drop the `description` prop when it just paraphrases the title. |
| Data table | `components/ui/table.tsx` `Table / TableHeader / TableHead / TableRow / TableCell` | Header style is baked in: `text-[11px] font-medium uppercase tracking-wider text-muted-foreground`. Wrap in `` when the table is a card's primary content. Add `tabular-nums` to numeric cells. |
| Status indicator | `components/ui/badge.tsx` `` | Variants: `default / secondary / success / warning / destructive / outline`. **Never** use raw Tailwind colors (`bg-blue-100`, `bg-emerald-500/10`, etc.) for status. Map status → variant via a small `Record` per feature. |
| No-data state | `components/ui/empty-state.tsx` `EmptyState` | Don't hand-roll `
…
`. Preset variants exist (`EmptyInvoices`, `EmptyCustomers`, `EmptyTransactions`, etc.). |
| Loading placeholder | `components/ui/skeleton.tsx` `` | Don't hand-roll `bg-muted rounded animate-pulse` divs. |
| Inline help / formulas | `components/ui/info-tooltip.tsx` `InfoTooltip` | Hover-revealed; don't use always-visible info buttons. |
| Fiscal year picker | `components/common/FiscalYearSelector.tsx` | Don't use raw `
