* fix(mcp): surface the database reason and code behind LINK_TX_DB_ERROR to the approver gnubok_link_transaction_to_journal_entry failed reproducibly for a customer on certain incoming payments with a bare LINK_TX_DB_ERROR: the service put the Postgres message in details.reason, but the code had no structured entry and the commit dispatcher dropped executor data on failure, so neither the MCP approve result nor result_data said why. LINK_TX_DB_ERROR now has a structured entry; the executor appends the DB reason to the message and sets errorCode; the dispatcher persists and returns executor failure details (result_data.details, CommitResult.data, .code); gnubok_approve_pending_operation exposes error_code. The next failing call tells us which constraint or trigger fired. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(mcp): keep tools/list under the context budget (drop approve schema descriptions) The two output-schema descriptions added for data/error_code pushed the projected tools/list payload 7 tokens over the ceiling guarded by payload-size.bench.test.ts. The fields stay; the prose goes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(pending-ops): log loudly when the terminal rejected write fails Review finding: the rejection branch wrote pending_operations without checking the result, so a failed write left the row in 'committing' with the executor error, code and details lost silently. Mirror the finalize branch: inspect the write result and log with the ids plus the failure we could not persist; the daily recovery sweep still resolves the row.

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. Add ?tool_namespace=accounted for the Accounted tool names. Requests without it retain the legacy Gnubok namespace. OAuth and stdio bridges live alongside the API surface: see app/api/mcp-oauth/, packages/accounted-mcp/, and the compatibility package in packages/gnubok-mcp/.
Tool authoring contract
Enforced by tests in __tests__/: these are not style preferences, they're guard rails.
additionalProperties: falseon everyinputSchema. Guarded bystrict-schemas.test.ts. Forces clear rejections on hallucinated fields instead of silent ignores.- Descriptions ≤ 280 chars. Guarded by
output-schema.test.ts. NoArgs:/Returns:/Examples:prose: those belong in JSON Schema. Use agent-native hints ("Use to…", "Call X first", "HIGH risk"). - Staged-operation envelope for write tools:
outputSchema: STAGED_OPERATION_SCHEMA(server.ts). Fields:staged, risk_level, actor, message, preview, period_status?, next?. Thestaged: trueboolean is the explicit completion signal; agents must not infer completion from prose. Do NOT introduce a parallel{ success, shouldContinue, output }envelope. period_statusthreading: any tool that ties to a fiscal-period-bound date (categorize, mark paid, create voucher, correct/reverse entry, approve supplier invoice) passesdateForPeriodChecktostagePendingOperation. Response then includesperiod_status: { period_id, status: open|locked|closed, lock_date }so widgets and agents disable writes without round-trips.- Scope mapping: every new tool needs an entry in
lib/auth/api-keys.tsTOOL_SCOPE_MAP. Missing entries default to deny. - Tests for new write tools: add staging-gate coverage to
__tests__/voucher-tools.test.ts(or a sibling) plus executor coverage tolib/pending-operations/__tests__/voucher-executors.test.tsif the tool stages a newoperation_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. If the test fires, the right answer is rarely "raise the ceiling". Instead, trim descriptions or set specialized wide tools to catalogVisibility: 'search'. Those tools remain discoverable with full schemas through gnubok_search_tools and callable through tools/call without bloating the default catalog.
