+
+#### Scenario: Unknown merchant falls back to local model

+
+### Requirement: Ambiguous suggestions remain user-controlled
+The system SHALL keep the final saved category under user control for ambiguous or model-generated suggestions.
+
+#### Scenario: User confirms model suggestion before save
+- **WHEN** the category suggestion comes from model inference instead of a deterministic rule
+- **THEN** the user can review and confirm or change the category before the expense is saved
+
+#### Scenario: No cloud fallback is used
+- **WHEN** the local suggestion service is unavailable
+- **THEN** the system continues to allow manual category selection and does not send merchant data to a hosted provider

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: User can generate monthly AI insights on demand
+The system SHALL allow the user to manually generate monthly AI insights for any month with existing or sparse data by sending structured monthly context to a fully offline local inference runtime.
+
+#### Scenario: Insights are generated for a month with data
+- **WHEN** the user requests insight generation for a month with recorded activity
+- **THEN** the system sends monthly aggregates plus transaction samples to the local AI service and returns a rendered narrative summary with structured supporting totals
