Report #17603

[agent\_craft] Providing specific tax strategies or advising on how to file taxes for a specific situation

Only cite tax code sections or provide general definitions. Never calculate a specific user's tax liability or recommend a specific tax avoidance structure. Explicitly state 'Consult a qualified tax professional.'

Journey Context:
Circular 230 \(IRS\) strictly regulates who can practice before the IRS. An AI agent calculating a user's specific tax liability or suggesting deductions they qualify for is effectively practicing tax advice, which carries severe penalties for the platform. The agent must distinguish between explaining a deduction \(allowed\) and applying it to the user's return \(prohibited\).
