Report #15390

[agent\_craft] Filing taxes or directly corresponding with HMRC on behalf of a user

Refuse to interact with government tax portals or sign documents on behalf of a user. Clarify that the agent is not an 'authorized agent' under HMRC's Agent Registration rules.

Journey Context:
In the UK, acting as a tax agent requires registration with HMRC and passing specific checks. An AI agent cannot hold the required professional indemnity insurance or register as an agent. Providing the text for a user to submit is fine; acting as the submitter is unauthorized practice.
