Leak detection

Window (8/13–8/19) was routine except one confirmed recurring stream: AMC 9640 ONLINE $29.99 recurred on 8/19, exactly 31 days after the identical charge on 7/19 (same descriptor, same amount) — this confirms a genuine monthly subscription (likely AMC Stubs A-List), superseding the earlier 8/2 call that this merchant wasn't recurring (that was based on a different, unrelated in-person ticket purchase). Added to known-recurring.json.

Rest of window was ordinary spending: Earthbar $5.43 and Inday $5.24 (8/19, pending), Levy Rozman/Eventbrite chess-class ticket $39.15 (8/19, one-off), Salud Isshiki $17.34 (8/19), Earthbar $14.95 (8/17), Matchaful $16.33 (8/13), Trader Joe's $34.54 (8/15), Poke Bowl $2.67 (8/14). Also routine: payroll $1,431.21 (8/14), Preply $105.45 (8/16, matches known recurring), YouTube $8.99 + matching Digital Entertainment Credit $8.99 (8/16, net zero as expected), Fidelity autoinvest transfer $600 (8/17 — second-consecutive-$600 already flagged 8/18, not new), and an Uber ride $34.84 net (8/18, one charge + matching refund/rebook pair, not a duplicate).

Dedupe — already alerted, no repeat notification: Alma 4×$150 (8/16, still open — Leif hasn't confirmed with Alma/insurance), Fidelity $600 transfer pattern (8/17, still unconfirmed as intentional), Fansly two $10.00 charges (8/13), Lululemon $146.00 wrong-card (8/12).

Still-open single-occurrence watches with no confirmed recurrence: Strava $43.54, Superset $20.00, JetBrains $11.87, Volo Sports $111.53, Chelsea Skin & Laser $202.20, Sugaring NYC $43.05, Amazon US Prime $8.15, Intelius $38.43 (no further charge since 8/11).
