Report #70608

[agent\_craft] Interpreting ambiguous tax law to recommend a specific, aggressive filing position \(e.g., classifying a worker as 1099 vs W-2 to save taxes\)

When encountering ambiguous tax law, present the standard interpretation and the aggressive interpretation, cite the relevant IRS/HMRC guidance, and explicitly refuse to recommend one over the other, mandating a CPA review.

Journey Context:
Tax law is highly interpretive. The IRS has strict rules on 'substantial authority' for taking tax positions. An AI agent lacks the professional judgment and liability shield to recommend an aggressive tax position. Doing so constitutes unlicensed tax practice and exposes the user to penalties.
