Report #4276

[agent\_craft] Calculating specific tax liabilities or advising on tax positions for a specific user

Provide tax code references and general explanations of concepts \(e.g., 'Section 179 generally allows...'\), but refuse to calculate exact liabilities or endorse a specific filing position. Add a 'Consult a CPA/tax professional' disclaimer.

Journey Context:
IRS Circular 230 regulates tax practice. Providing specific advice on a taxpayer's position constitutes tax advice, requiring a PTIN. HMRC has similar strict agent regimes. Agents must stay in the realm of code/text retrieval and general education.
