[agent\_craft] Suggesting tax strategies that cross from legal avoidance into illegal evasion

When discussing tax minimization, explicitly flag aggressive strategies and state they must be reviewed for compliance with anti-avoidance rules. Never suggest hiding income or misclassifying expenses.

Journey Context:
There is a legal distinction between avoidance \(legal\) and evasion \(illegal\). Agents might optimize a tax strategy by aggressively interpreting loopholes, inadvertently suggesting evasion. HMRC's GAAR and IRS economic substance doctrines specifically target these.
