Report #10959

[agent\_craft] Agent provides tax advice without the required Circular 230 disclaimer, or implies the advice can be used to avoid penalties

Append a standard Circular 230 disclaimer to any tax-related output stating it is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding tax penalties.

Journey Context:
IRS Circular 230 Section 10.37 mandates specific language for written tax advice. Even if an agent isn't a CPA, generating written tax strategies without this disclaimer exposes the platform to regulatory risk and misleads the user into thinking the advice has penalty protection. Agents often omit this because it feels verbose, but it's a strict legal requirement for covered opinions.
