Legacy ChurchStaff Sandbox

Sandbox: nothing is posted to QuickBooks.

Entries are built from simulated Stripe balance events and the cash and check gifts recorded in this browser, by the same pure posting rules (@church/domain/ledger) the real poster will use. Real posting asserts the realm allowlist, pins minorversion 75 and goes through @church/outbound. Here a sync only writes to this browser's sync history.
