2. HMRC Mandatory Payrolling of Benefits in Kind (BiKs) — 50% Cash-Pay Cap & Carry-Forward Calculator

Models HMRC's PAYE Specification (v24.0) ahead of the November 2026 registration window and 6 April 2027 mandate: total Income Tax deducted in any pay period cannot exceed 50% of cash pay, carrying uncollected tax forward across pay periods plus real-time 15% Class 1A Employer NIC.

3. Apify .actor/input_schema.json → MCP Silent Bug Linter & Auto-Fixer

Catches the silent Apify MCP Server bug where marking an input property as both "required" and having a "default" causes tools/list to tell AI agents (Claude, Cursor, Grok Bot) that the field is optional — while Apify's daily health check hides the failure via prefill. Returns an auto-fixed schema moving default → prefill.
