Em dashes (—) and en dashes (–) had spread across comments, docs, tests,
and a few UI strings, reading as AI-generated boilerplate rather than
house style. Replaced each with punctuation matching its context: colon
for explanatory clauses, comma for asides, plain hyphen for numeric/legal
ranges (e.g. "21-23§"), "to"/"till" for date ranges, parentheses for
paired-dash asides. messages/en.json and messages/sv.json were fixed by
hand together to keep sv/en in sync.
Left untouched where the dash is the functional subject rather than
decorative punctuation: date-range-parser.ts's separator regex,
charset-repair.ts's CP1252 byte-mapping table (and its test), the SIE
encoding mojibake docs, generic-csv.ts's minus-sign normalizer, the
agent system-prompt files that already instruct against em dashes, and
a golden iXBRL test fixture compared byte-for-byte.
Also fixes two bugs surfaced along the way: an off-by-one in
ApiKeysPanel's scope-label split (a leftover from an earlier partial
pass), and a charset-repair test that had lost the literal en-dash it
exists to verify.
Regenerated the agent atom seed migration (skills:generate) since 27
SKILL.md files changed. Added a CLAUDE.md rule against em/en dashes,
with an explicit carve-out for the functional-dash cases above.

The HTTP routes call requireCapability at every paid chokepoint, but the
MCP/agent path bypassed the paywall entirely: the three external-service
tools stage operations whose commit calls the email / Skatteverket services
directly, with no capability check. After the 2026-07-07 trial cutover a
trial-connected non-payer using the gnubok MCP connector could still send
invoice emails and file AGI/VAT.
Close the gap with two layers, mirroring the existing TOOL_SCOPE_MAP gate:
- Dispatch gate (mcp-server/server.ts): MCP_TOOL_CAPABILITY_MAP, checked
right after the scope check, blocks a non-entitled company before any
pending op is staged. Emits errorKind='capability_denied' telemetry.
- Commit-time gate (commitPendingOperation): PAID_OPERATION_CAPABILITY_MAP,
checked before the atomic claim. The real external-service chokepoint —
applies to the MCP approve tool AND the UI approval path, and closes the
trial-connected-token window (the grant has expired by commit time). A
blocked op stays 'pending', so it is re-approvable once the company subscribes.
Adds a transport-free capabilityBlockedError() helper (shared bilingual
copy) and locks both maps with tests (maps, dispatch gate, commit gate).
Only the three write/submit tools are gated; SKV read/local tools stay free
per the statutory carve-out. No DB/migration change; self-hosted stays all-on.
