Jakob WennbergandClaude Fable 5 163fbd8222 feat(dimensions): PR8 salary — employees.default_dimensions, per-employee cost lines, aggregation re-key (#869)
Employees carry a default dimensions bag and the salary booking puts each
employee's cost on their kostnadsställe/projekt
(dev_docs/dimensions_implementation_plan.md PR8):

- employees.default_dimensions (migration 20260702220000; jsonb DEFAULT
  '{}' + object CHECK)
- salary-entries: the one-line-per-account aggregation is re-keyed to
  account+bag — P&L cost lines (löner incl. line items + base remainder,
  arbetsgivaravgifter, semesteravsättning + dess avgifter, pension, SLP)
  split per employee bag while every balance-sheet/settlement leg (2710,
  1930, 2731, 29xx, 2740, 2514) stays aggregated; liability credits equal
  the sum of the rounded debit buckets so entries balance by construction;
  dimension-less runs book byte-identically to before. Replaces the dead
  SalaryRunEmployee.cost_center/project pair (never wired)
- both book routes (dashboard + v1) read the bag via the employees join —
  read-at-book, so the run review shows exactly what will book
- employee form (new + edit) gets a gated Kostnadsställe/Projekt card;
  run review shows per-employee dims chips; run GET + v1 employee
  routes/schemas + MCP list_employees carry the field
- pre-merge audit: all salary reports (salary-journal, AGI,
  avgifter-basis, vacation-liability) read salary_run_employees — not
  journal lines — and every ledger consumer sums per account, so the
  line split breaks nothing; SIE export + dimension P&L pick the split
  up as intended

8 new engine propagation tests + book-route dims flow test.

Accounted MCP server

JSON-RPC 2.0 server exposing the Accounted bookkeeping engine to MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, etc.). Endpoint: /api/extensions/ext/mcp-server/mcp. OAuth and stdio bridge live alongside the API surface — see app/api/mcp-oauth/ and packages/gnubok-mcp/.

Tool authoring contract

Enforced by tests in __tests__/ — these are not style preferences, they're guard rails.

  1. additionalProperties: false on every inputSchema. Guarded by strict-schemas.test.ts. Forces clear rejections on hallucinated fields instead of silent ignores.
  2. Descriptions ≤ 280 chars. Guarded by output-schema.test.ts. No Args: / Returns: / Examples: prose — those belong in JSON Schema. Use agent-native hints ("Use to…", "Call X first", "HIGH risk").
  3. Staged-operation envelope for write tools — outputSchema: STAGED_OPERATION_SCHEMA (server.ts). Fields: 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.
  4. period_status threading — any tool that ties to a fiscal-period-bound date (categorize, mark paid, create voucher, correct/reverse entry, approve supplier invoice) passes dateForPeriodCheck to stagePendingOperation. Response then includes period_status: { period_id, status: open|locked|closed, lock_date } so widgets and agents disable writes without round-trips.
  5. Scope mapping — every new tool needs an entry in lib/auth/api-keys.ts TOOL_SCOPE_MAP. Missing entries default to deny.
  6. Tests for new write tools — add staging-gate coverage to __tests__/voucher-tools.test.ts (or a sibling) plus executor coverage to lib/pending-operations/__tests__/voucher-executors.test.ts if the tool stages a new operation_type.

Determinism / cache stability

Tool definitions (name, description, inputSchema, outputSchema, annotations) are declared as static object literals at module load — no timestamps, no UUIDs, no Date/Math.random in the definition layer. This makes the tools/list JSON payload byte-stable across requests, which lets agent-side prompt caches stay warm. Do not introduce per-request non-determinism into the definitions block. Anything time-bound or random belongs inside execute().

For internal Anthropic API usage (today only extensions/general/invoice-inbox/lib/extract-invoice-fields.ts): annotate stable prefixes with cache_control: { type: 'ephemeral' } and log usage.cache_read_input_tokens for hit-ratio observability. The 1h TTL from the agent-native API plan (item 10) requires the direct Anthropic API; Accounted's Bedrock path defaults to a shorter TTL.

Payload-size watchdog

payload-size.bench.test.ts enforces a tools/list JSON payload ceiling (currently 36,000 tokens — bumped from 32,000 when top-level Tool.title landed on all tools for Claude Connectors Directory readiness). If the test fires, the right answer is rarely "raise the ceiling" — instead, trim descriptions or leverage gnubok_search_tools (already deployed; tool definitions can defer to it for discovery rather than enumerating in tools/list).

Where things live

  • server.ts — the tools array + JSON-RPC dispatcher
  • tool-result.ts — withNext(), toToolError() response helpers
  • resources/ — read-only Accounted:// URIs (active company, period, recent activity, capabilities, attention items, voucher gaps, chart of accounts, VAT treatments)
  • widgets/ — inline HTML widgets (receipt-matcher, vat-review)
  • prompts/ — slash-command-style prompts
  • skills/ — domain-knowledge skill bodies served via gnubok_load_skill
  • __tests__/ — strictness guards + per-tool coverage
