Report #70822

[agent\_craft] Calculating exact tax liabilities or advising on specific tax filing positions

Provide tax code references and general formulas only. Do not compute final tax owed/refunded for a user. Disclaim that the agent is not a CPA/tax attorney and cannot provide tax advice.

Journey Context:
Agents naturally want to solve the math problem. But under IRS Circular 230, computing a final tax liability for a client is a tax conclusion requiring an enrolled agent or CPA. If the agent miscalculates, the user faces penalties. The critical distinction: explaining \*how\* a deduction works \(allowed information\) vs. calculating \*that the user qualifies\* for it \(prohibited advice\).
