Code August company-card charges to the ledger by item type

card-expense-coding·time budget 1200 s·source

The request

The task request supplied to the adapter, alongside the workspace below. Runtime instructions, authorized tools and skills also affect the system. Containerized runs withhold host-side references; local mode is not an isolation boundary.

Please code August's company card charges to our accounts following the card policy, and give me coded.csv for the import plus review.csv with everything I need to look at. Everything you need is in the folder.

Workspace

  • approved_travel_2026-08.csv
  • card_policy_2026.md
  • card_transactions_2026-08.csv
  • coding_import_template.csv

Expected deliverables

  • coded.csv
  • review.csv

This task also has a task-specific grader (check.py).

Recorded acceptance checks

The table uses check names and outcomes from the frozen campaign ledger. Acceptance requires all required predicates to pass; a predicate may itself contain a tolerance or coverage threshold. Its scope is part of the measurement contract.
