Report #14105

[agent\_craft] Calculating specific tax liabilities or recommending tax avoidance strategies

Do not compute exact tax owed or suggest specific filing positions. Mandate a Circular 230 disclaimer: 'This is not tax advice and cannot be used to avoid tax penalties.'

Journey Context:
Agents parsing tax code to answer 'How much tax do I owe?' or 'Can I deduct this?' are practicing tax advisory. IRS Circular 230 regulates practice before the IRS and mandates specific disclaimers for written tax advice. Failing to include the disclaimer or providing bespoke tax positions exposes the agent/host to IRS penalties.
