* fix(entitlements): gate paid AI document OCR server-side (free-tier leak)

Free/manual-tier companies could trigger paid Bedrock OCR (extractInvoiceFields)
with no `ai` capability check, on every transport:
- invoice-inbox HTTP paths — /upload + email /inbound (shared uploadAndExtract),
  /items/:id/attach-document, /items/:id/retry-extraction (4 call sites, zero
  capability refs);
- the gnubok_upload_document MCP tool — absent from MCP_TOOL_CAPABILITY_MAP, so a
  free-tier API key (incl. the claude.ai connector's minted gnubok_sk_ key) got
  unlimited AI extraction. This disproved the keys.ts "no MCP tool invokes AI"
  comment.

Fix (money-blocker for the free/paid tier cutover):
- Gate the 3 inbox call sites on hasCapability(CAPABILITY.ai). Upload + attach
  degrade gracefully (document still stored; extraction skipped with reason
  `no_ai_entitlement`, highest priority in the existing skipReason chain). Retry
  is an explicit "run AI now" action, so it hard-blocks with 403
  capabilityBlockedResponse.
- Register gnubok_upload_document -> CAPABILITY.ai in MCP_TOOL_CAPABILITY_MAP; the
  dispatcher already enforces the map. Correct the stale keys.ts comment and the
  misleading "deterministic field extraction" tool description + manifest copy
  (the extension migrated regex -> AI OCR).

Tests: no-AI upload/attach skip + retry 403 (sandbox-skip-extraction), retry 403
(retry-extraction), and the MCP map contract + refined dispatch<->commit parity
(capability-maps: upload_document is dispatch-only, no commit counterpart).

Self-hosted stays all-on (hasCapability short-circuits). No migration.
Follow-up (not in scope): capability-blind DashboardNav (free/paid rails identical)
and /chat gated on isVerified not `ai` — see dev_docs/nav_ia_redesign.md Part 4.

* test(mcp): assert gnubok_upload_document is ai-gated at dispatch

The gnubok_upload_document handler runs extractInvoiceFields (Bedrock OCR)
inline rather than through the entitlement-gated uploadAndExtract, so the
central MCP_TOOL_CAPABILITY_MAP dispatch check is the only paywall on that
transport. Lock it with a test (flagged by PR review as an untested money
path) so a free-tier connector key can never reach paid OCR.

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
