Norman: Tax Deduction Finder
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
This instruction-only tax helper is purpose-aligned, but it will access sensitive financial records and can recategorize transactions after user confirmation.
This skill appears coherent and instruction-only. Before installing, make sure you are comfortable letting it inspect your Norman Finance transaction and tax data, and only approve transaction recategorizations after checking that the suggested tax category is correct.

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 agent may be able to view sensitive business, tax, and transaction data through the connected finance service.
The skill depends on a Norman Finance MCP integration, which implies delegated access to the user's finance workspace or account.
requires:\n mcp:\n - norman-finance
Install only if you trust the Norman Finance connection and are comfortable granting the agent access to your financial records for the requested period.
A tax-deduction review may expose a full year of transaction history, company information, and tax configuration to the agent context.
The instructed workflow reads transactions, company details, and tax settings. This is sensitive financial and business information, though it is aligned with the tax-deduction purpose.
Call `search_transactions` for the specified period (default: current year)\n- Call `get_company_details` to understand the business type\n- Call `list_tax_settings` to check VAT status and tax regime
Ask for a narrow period when possible and avoid using the skill if you do not want the agent to inspect those finance records.
Incorrectly confirmed category changes could affect bookkeeping, tax estimates, or later filings.
The skill can mutate accounting categorizations. The instruction requires user confirmation, so this is purpose-aligned, but it still affects financial records.
Use `categorize_transaction` to recategorize if the user confirms
Review each proposed category and rationale before confirming changes, and keep an audit trail or backup of accounting changes.
