Jakob Wennberg 920400cfb5 docs: community health files, ARCHITECTURE.md, and README overhaul (#1072)
* docs: add community health files, ARCHITECTURE.md, and README overhaul

Community layer: CODE_OF_CONDUCT (Contributor Covenant 2.1), issue
templates (bug/feature YAML forms + contact links), PR template
mirroring the Definition of Done, and a visitor-grade ARCHITECTURE.md
distilled from internal docs.

README: fix the clone/cd case mismatch, add CI/docker badges and site
links, add a Why section (compliance-by-construction, agent-native MCP
surface, self-hostable), add missing payroll and MCP feature bullets,
and restructure the documentation/community sections. Hero screenshot
slot left as a comment pending an approved shot.

CONTRIBUTING: fix stale gnubok name, link Code of Conduct and
ARCHITECTURE.md.

* docs: address review feedback on community files

Disable blank issues so security reports stay on the private path,
require npm run build in the PR checklist to match CONTRIBUTING, and
align ARCHITECTURE.md immutability wording with the actual trigger
behavior (controlled posted-to-reversed transition is permitted).

## Why Accounted?
**Compliant by construction.** Accounted implements double-entry bookkeeping under Swedish accounting law (Bokföringslagen). Voucher immutability, sequential voucher numbering, period locks, and 7-year document retention are enforced by database triggers, not by convention. Corrections are made the legal way, with reversal entries (storno), never by editing history. See [ARCHITECTURE.md](ARCHITECTURE.md) for how.
**Agent-native.** The full bookkeeping engine is exposed as 100+ MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools with scoped API keys, so an AI agent can do the books in Accounted: categorize transactions, draft vouchers, reconcile periods, and prepare declarations. Posting is staged for human approval, so the agent proposes and you decide.
**Yours to run.** AGPL-3.0 licensed and fully self-hostable with Docker and Supabase. Use the hosted version at [app.gnubok.se](https://app.gnubok.se) or run your own.

## Self-Hosting
```bash
git clone https://github.com/erp-mafia/accounted.git
cd accounted
./setup.sh # Prompts for Supabase credentials, generates .env
docker compose up -d
```
You need a Supabase project and must apply the database migrations before first use. See [docs/SELF-HOSTING.md](docs/SELF-HOSTING.md) for the full step-by-step guide, including Supabase setup, auth configuration, optional features (AI, email, push notifications), and troubleshooting.
## Development Setup

```bash
npm install
npm run dev # Start dev server (auto-generates extension registry)
npm test # Run tests
npm run build # Production build
npm run lint # ESLint
```
See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for the full development workflow.
