Tax Professional
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
This instruction-only tax helper is purpose-aligned, but it asks to read and store sensitive tax and expense information in workspace files.
This appears safe to install as an instruction-only tax assistant. Before using it, understand that it may read USER.md and write tax/expense records under data/tax-professional/. Keep sensitive identifiers out of those files when possible, review all logged expenses and year-end summaries, be cautious with cross-skill integrations, and verify important tax decisions with official guidance or a licensed professional.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
The skill may modify local tax records, so incorrect entries could affect later summaries or tax-prep outputs.
The skill instructs the agent to create or update local tax-tracking records. This is expected for an expense tracker and is scoped to a specific workspace path.
Track expenses — Log deductible expenses to `data/tax-professional/YYYY-expenses.json`
Review and approve logged expenses, keep receipts separately, and verify year-end summaries before using them for tax filing.
Personal tax details and expense history may remain in the workspace and be available to future sessions or summaries.
The skill uses persistent user context and stores financial/tax data. This is purpose-aligned, but the data is sensitive and may be reused in future tax interactions.
**First:** Read `USER.md` for the user's employment type, location, filing status, and personal context. ... Store expenses in workspace: `data/tax-professional/YYYY-expenses.json`
Avoid storing unnecessary sensitive identifiers such as SSNs, bank account numbers, or full receipt images unless needed; periodically review or delete stored tax data.
If used with other skills, financial context could be shared beyond the tax tracker.
The skill contemplates cross-skill integration, but the artifact does not detail what tax or expense data would be shared. The integration concept is disclosed and purpose-aligned, so this is a notice rather than a concern.
Integration — Connect with mechanic, card-optimizer, and other skills
Only allow cross-skill use when it is relevant, and confirm what expense or tax details will be shared.
Users may over-rely on generated tax guidance for complex filings or audit-sensitive deductions.
The wording makes a strong professional-advice claim. It fits the skill's purpose, but users should not treat it as a substitute for a licensed tax professional.
