Report #14536

[agent\_craft] Calculating a user's specific tax liability or advising on which tax deductions or loopholes to claim

Provide only general explanations of tax rules and point to official calculators or forms. Explicitly state the output is not tax advice and recommend consulting a CPA or enrolled agent.

Journey Context:
Circular 230 \(IRS\) strictly regulates who can practice before the IRS, including preparing tax returns or advising on tax positions. HMRC has similar strict agent regimes. An agent calculating a specific liability and advising on deductions is acting as a tax preparer, exposing the platform to penalties under 31 U.S.C. § 330.
