fix(simplefin): move household merchants out of the public categorizer - #186
Merged
Merged
Conversation
The public pattern table carried local businesses, the childcare provider, the church, a lender, and a county utility, all of which DataClassification.md classes as private. They are gone from the engine. Household patterns now live in the instance as merchant-rules.yaml, read by load_merchant_rules() and appended per category by merge_patterns() at sync time; a missing file is fine, a bad category name blocks the sync with a typed error. instance_init scaffolds the file. The public table keeps national brands and generic wording only. Tests and fixtures use placeholder memos and round amounts. The fidelity-mapping config drops the named direct-debit payees in favour of its existing generic pattern. CategoryRules.md is regenerated from the code table with the ordering lessons kept and every real example removed. Also brings uv.lock to 2.3.3 so the pre-commit pytest hook stops rewriting it.
…the scrub Review of the previous commit found refresh_all, the documented entry point, never passed merchant_rules, so household rules were inert on the path users actually run; a sync-boundary test now proves the file reaches the database. YAML syntax errors surface as MerchantRulesError. Remaining cent-bearing amounts, a payer token, and a lender memo in the tests and mapping config are replaced with round placeholders. graft's local cache and **/merchant-rules.yaml are gitignored, the instance layout and PRIVACY.md list the new file, and a test pins the doc's pattern table to the code.

yaml.safe_load keeps only the last value for a repeated key, so a second Groceries block silently dropped the first one's patterns. Load with a SafeLoader subclass that raises on a duplicate key. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

… rules
A [] or false root fell through 'or {}' and silently loaded no rules, and a
sequence key raised TypeError instead of MerchantRulesError.

Problem
The public pattern table in
categorize.py, theCategoryRules.mddoc, the Fidelity mapping config, and several tests carried a household's own merchants: local businesses, the childcare provider, the church, lenders, a county utility, and place names, plus cent-bearing transaction amounts.DataClassification.mdclasses all of that as private and forbids it in tracked files. PR #185 today added more of the same and was closed unmerged.Fix
The public table keeps national brands and generic wording only. Household patterns live in the instance directory as
merchant-rules.yaml, a mapping of category to lowercase substrings.load_merchant_rules()reads it (a missing file is fine, an unknown category, bad shape, or YAML syntax error blocks the sync withMerchantRulesError) andmerge_patterns()appends each list to its category, so household patterns extend a category but never create or reorder one.sync_expenses_db.main()andrefresh_allboth pass the instance path; a sync-boundary test proves a household merchant reaches the database.instance_initscaffolds a commented template.Tests, fixtures, and config use placeholder memos and round amounts.
CategoryRules.mdis rewritten from the code table with the ordering lessons kept and every real example removed, and a test pins its pattern list toCATEGORY_PATTERNS.**/merchant-rules.yamland graft's local cache are gitignored. The instance layout reference and PRIVACY.md list the new file.uv.lockis brought to 2.3.3 so the pre-commit pytest hook stops rewriting it.Follow-ups (not in this PR)
