@@ -133,6 +133,37 @@ filter on `settled` — half a 2025 grocery shop was your expense whether or not
 the other half was repaid. Filtering it out re-inflates exactly the figures the
 historical import exists to correct.
 
+**Every split totals 100%, and the payer's row is written down.** `myShare`
+resolves the payer's share as `100 - SUM(everyone else)`, so a 50/50 stored as
+a lone "Sonu 50%" row still computed correctly — and still read on screen as a
+50% share against a blank. `completeSplit` (`src/lib/splits.ts`) is the single
+place that materialises the remainder, and every write path ends in it:
+`applyRuleActions`, `POST /api/transactions`, the Slack nudge's share button,
+and the rule-revert restore. `POST /api/transactions/[id]/splits` needs no call
+— it already rejects anything not summing to 100.
+
+The remainder always goes to the transaction's **owner**, never to "me". The
+owner's row on their own transaction is excluded from both halves of
+`getParticipantBalances` (`ts.participant_id != $1` on transactions I own; the
+converse on ones I do not), so writing it cannot create, enlarge or discharge a
+debt. A row for *me* on someone else's transaction is a real obligation — never
+synthesise one. This is what made the 7-row backfill in `22e4a1e` safe;
+balances were byte-identical across it.
+
+There is no database-level constraint on the sum. Enforcing it needs a deferred
+constraint trigger, and the rule path commits its DELETE and INSERT as separate
+autocommitted statements, so the trigger would reject the intermediate state.
+
+`share_percent` has a CHECK of `> 0 AND <= 100`, so a 0% row cannot be stored —
+when the others grow to cover the whole amount, the owner's row is deleted
+rather than zeroed.
+
+**Un-sharing needs DELETE, not an empty POST.** The splits route rejects an
+empty array ("splits array required"), so `DELETE /api/transactions/[id]/splits`
+is the only way to clear. The order panel's "Shared 50/50" toggle was inert in
+both directions until `22e4a1e` because it posted a lone 50% row to share and
+`[]` to un-share, and the endpoint rejected both.
+
 **Any split write path that deletes-and-recreates must carry `settled` across.**
 `POST /api/transactions/[id]/splits` did not, and silently converted discharged
 obligations into live debt — $37,233.28 was exposed. Fixed in `6add958`.
