feat(fp): WP-05 — parse-don't-validate closure + MDX

Close the three remaining unvalidated `as <DomainType>` casts at the wire
boundary (intake-policy, big-register aantekening type, brief passage scope),
each replaced by a Result-returning parser with a rejection-case spec, plus
the Foundations/Parse, don't validate curriculum page.

# Parse, don't validate
The wire is untrusted. A `boolean`/`string` field coming back from `fetch` is typed `unknown`
until something checks it — casting it away with `as` doesn't check anything, it just tells the
compiler to stop complaining. This repo's rule: every response crosses the FE⇄BE seam through a
hand-written `parse*` function that returns a `Result<string, T>` (`src/app/shared/kernel/fp.ts`).
Once you hold the parsed value, you never re-check it — the type _is_ the proof.
## Two places this shows up
**Value objects** (`src/app/registratie/domain/value-objects/`) parse a single user-entered
field — `Postcode`, `Uren`, `BigNummer` — from a raw string into a branded type.
**Boundary parsers** (`*.adapter.ts` in every `infrastructure/`) parse a whole DTO — or one
enum-ish field inside it — from the generated `ApiClient`'s response into the domain shape the
rest of the app trusts.
```ts
parsePostcode(raw) // Result<string, Postcode>
|> mapErr(toLocalizedMessage) // swap raw msg → UI copy
|> map(toDomain) // only runs on success
```
## The failure mode this closes: the silent `as` cast
An `as SomeUnion` cast on a wire value compiles even when the value doesn't match — the tag
just gets forwarded as-is, and something far away breaks on an "impossible" case. A validated
parse turns that into an explicit `Failure` at the boundary, right where the untrusted data
enters.
### Before/after: `big-register.adapter.ts`
```ts
// before — the wire's `type` string is trusted outright
function toAantekening(n: AantekeningDto): Aantekening {
return { type: n.type as AantekeningType, omschrijving: n.omschrijving ?? '', datum: n.datum ?? '' };
}
```
```ts
// after — an unrecognized type is a Result you can spec, not a silently-wrong tag
const AANTEKENING_TYPES: readonly AantekeningType[] = ['Specialisme', 'Aantekening'];
export function parseAantekening(n: AantekeningDto): Result<string, Aantekening> {
if (!n.type || !AANTEKENING_TYPES.includes(n.type as AantekeningType))
return err(`aantekening: unknown type ${n.type}`);
return ok({ type: n.type as AantekeningType, omschrijving: n.omschrijving ?? '', datum: n.datum ?? '' });
}
```
The resource loader throws on `Failure`, which Angular's `resource()` turns into its error
state — the same `Failure` a `RemoteData` consumer already renders, no new plumbing.
### Before/after: `brief.adapter.ts`
```ts
// before — `dto.scope` is checked, then re-cast anyway
if (typeof dto.passageId !== 'string' || (dto.scope !== 'global' && dto.scope !== 'beroep'))
return err('passage: bad shape');
// … scope: dto.scope as PassageScope
```
```ts
// after — split the guard so TS narrows `scope` on its own; no cast needed
if (dto.scope !== 'global' && dto.scope !== 'beroep')
return err(`passage: unknown scope ${dto.scope}`);
// … scope: dto.scope // already narrowed to PassageScope
```
Splitting a compound `if` into two single-condition guards is often enough to make the cast
disappear entirely — the compiler was already able to prove the narrowing, the `||` was just
hiding it.
### Before/after: `intake-policy.adapter.ts`
```ts
// before — the resource exposes the raw DTO; consumers reach into it with `?.`
policyResource() {
return resource({ loader: () => this.client.policy() });
}
```
```ts
// after — a domain-side type + a validated parse; the resource never surfaces raw wire shape
export interface IntakePolicy { readonly scholingThreshold: number }
export function parseIntakePolicy(json: unknown): Result<string, IntakePolicy> {
if (typeof json !== 'object' || json === null) return err('intake-policy: not an object');
const dto = json as { scholingThreshold?: unknown };
if (typeof dto.scholingThreshold !== 'number')
return err('intake-policy: missing scholingThreshold');
return ok({ scholingThreshold: dto.scholingThreshold });
}
```
## The sanctioned exception
Narrowing `unknown` to `Partial<Dto>` so you can *start* checking fields is fine — that's not a
trust decision, it's just giving the compiler a shape to probe (`const dto = json as
Partial<DashboardViewDto>`, see `dashboard-view.adapter.ts`). What's never fine is casting a
field to its final domain type without having checked it first.
## Spec every parser like a decision table
Each parser gets a spec covering: a valid shape, a missing required field, and — for
tagged/enum-ish values — an unknown tag. See `big-register.adapter.spec.ts`,
`intake-policy.adapter.spec.ts`, and the scope-rejection case in `brief.adapter.spec.ts`.
