Ranked after every change
The low path falls $530 below the protected amount. Pause optional transfers until the gap clears.
Required bills and the starter reserve rank ahead of optional savings or debt payments.The exact manual date is included in every path; changing it moves the cash curve without changing unrelated income assumptions.
A user-confirmed manual income event stays exact rather than being replaced by an optimistic estimate.The three future retainer deposits use $700 low, $850 base and $1,000 high bounds.
Only recurring irregular income varies across paths; the manual payment and required outflows stay exact.No optional amount is released while the low path is below the protected amount.
Optional capacity is the low-path surplus above the protected amount, capped at $180 in this fixture.Always-visible audit trail
Rubato placed the exact payment on August 11, recalculated all 13 weekly balances, protected near-term bills and the starter reserve, then ranked the action queue.
