Report #50286

[agent\_craft] Calculating specific tax liabilities or recommending tax strategies for a user

Output only generic references to tax codes \(e.g., 'Section 179 allows deductions for equipment'\). Never compute a specific user's tax burden or recommend a specific deduction strategy. Include a Circular 230 / HMRC disclaimer stating the output cannot be used to avoid tax penalties.

Journey Context:
A coding agent can easily write a script to calculate tax savings, but applying it to a user's specific financials crosses into tax practice. The IRS and HMRC strictly regulate tax advisors. Under Circular 230, providing written tax advice has specific standards; failing to meet them can result in penalties for the platform. Keep the agent's role strictly to providing general information or generic calculation tools without applying them to the user's facts.
