"description": "Edit one posted sample transaction, read back the saved edit, undo exactly that change, and verify restoration. Setup: connect the dedicated reviewer demo account with Allow bookkeeping changes enabled (switchbooks.read and switchbooks.write); use Dunder Mifflin sample books and one posted, editable transaction returned by the preceding August search. Description edits require a posted transaction; do not select a transaction still in To Review. Save its full returned transactionID (accepted as ref), or returned ref, and all returned original field values before writing. No other writer should modify that row during the case. If the posted editable fixture is missing, the case is blocked rather than passed. The user authorizes only the named description edit and its reversal in this case; do not expand it into other corrections, rules, or automatic posting.",

Call update_transactions with the exact ref, state posted, and set.description equal to the original description plus the requested suffix. A ref-targeted description edit is immediate. Do not change the date, amount, account, category, payee, note, or posting state. Read the same ref with list_transactions and verify the saved description and unchanged other returned fields. Identify the exact change batch from the update response or list_bookkeeping_changes, then call undo_bookkeeping_change with that batch identifier as name. Read the same transaction again and verify its original description and all other returned fields. Compare the note when it is returned; if it or another field is omitted, explicitly report that its preservation is not independently observable instead of claiming it was verified. Do not pass action selectors to these individual tools or invoke grouped writes. Claim success only from actual write, readback, exact-batch undo, and final readback results; report any blocker or incomplete restoration."

"description": "Edit a sample journal entry separately from transaction editing, verify it, then explicitly restore and verify the original name. Setup: the dedicated reviewer account has switchbooks.read and switchbooks.write. Use an existing editable journal entry in Dunder Mifflin sample books returned by an all-date journal-entry list. Save its exact ref, original name, date, accounting lines, and top-level or line memos when returned. This case deliberately restores the name with a second explicit update. Recorded journal-entry updates may also support undo using the returned change receipt, subject to current-record and reconciliation checks; generic JE undo is not the restoration method exercised by this case. Do not use bank transactions or invent a missing fixture.",

Choose one returned editable entry and retain its exact ref, original name, date, accounting lines, and top-level or line memos when returned. Call update_journal_entry with that ref and newName equal to the original name plus the requested suffix. Omit date, memo, and lines so the update changes only the name. Read the same ref with list_journal_entries to verify the changed name and unchanged other returned fields. Then call update_journal_entry with the same ref and newName set to the exact captured original name. Read the same ref again and verify the original name, date, and balanced accounting lines. Compare memos returned in the original read; line memos equal to the entry name may be suppressed and can become visible as the original name after renaming. If a memo or another field is omitted, explicitly report that its preservation is not independently observable instead of claiming it was verified. Do not pass action selectors. Do not call undo_bookkeeping_change for this case because the prompt specifically requests explicit name restoration. Do not claim journal-entry updates are categorically unsupported by undo; eligibility depends on a recorded change receipt and the undo safety checks. Do not treat an unexecuted edit, failed readback, or incomplete restoration as success."

Corrects journal-entry undo guidance: recorded updates can be eligible under their change receipt and safety checks. The journal-entry review case still deliberately verifies explicit name restoration. Retains the original switchbooks-chatgpt identity, OAuth configuration, and /api/mcp/chatgpt endpoint. Includes a new live ChatGPT demo of reports, observational review, transaction editing with exact undo, journal-entry naming with explicit restoration, and read-only server enforcement. All five positive and three negative review cases were retested in ChatGPT."
