Description

Session Goal

Define and harden a modular accounting reporting pipeline that separates canonical data processing from presentation notebooks, with emphasis on executive briefs, operating-result reporting, debt netting, and review-ready exports.

Key Activities

  • Specified a dedicated notebooks/[[accounting]]/ layer that consumes canonical outputs from out/ rather than mixing business logic into presentation notebooks.
  • Defined notebook responsibilities and output contracts for:
    • a one-page executive brief,
    • a monthly operating-result notebook with regime-based reconciliation,
    • a compact semester bridge notebook for human review,
    • a monthly metric audit notebook for anomaly screening,
    • and supporting CSV inspection / QA workflows.
  • Audited the first executive brief design and identified semantic issues around metric meaning, reporting window selection, and fallback behavior.
  • Reframed the operating notebook around monthly regime analysis so funding-family flows, withdrawals, cash, and debt are not treated as operating income.
  • Added constraints for compact reporting artifacts: limited table sizes, human-readable summaries, QA checks, caveats, and export bundles in Markdown/HTML/CSV.
  • Proposed source-granularity validation for monthly audits to prevent quarterly or periodic sources from being mislabeled as monthly.

Achievements

  • Established a clearer architecture that keeps accounting logic separate from report rendering.
  • Clarified the semantic distinction between operating costs, family draws, funding, and true operating result.
  • Defined a practical notebook sequence from raw canonical outputs to executive-facing summaries.
  • Identified QA requirements and anomaly-review steps needed before outputs can be considered report-ready.

Pending Tasks

  • Implement the revised notebook sequence and ensure each notebook reads from the correct upstream artifact.
  • Add source-granularity checks and monthly-series validation to the audit notebook.
  • Verify fallback logic, period selection, and metric semantics in the executive brief and operating-result notebooks.
  • Produce the final meeting-pack / reporting bundle once the upstream notebooks are stable.
