    ⚠️ Audit Flags & Missing Info

    New MacBook Pro: Computers are not "listed property," but the IRS still expects the deduction to match actual business use. Keep the receipt and a reasonable record of business vs. personal use. If you use it 80% for work, deduct $1,600. Section 179 is also limited by your business's taxable income for the year.
    *

    Internet bill: A home internet line is almost always mixed-use. Estimate the business share (e.g., hours of work use, or the share of usage attributable to the business) and document your method. Claiming 100% on a home line is a common red flag.
    *

    Starbucks meeting: Note the client or prospect's name, the date, and what you discussed. Without a documented business purpose, the deduction can be disallowed. Coffee alone with no business discussion isn't deductible.
    *

    Train ticket to see mom: Excluded. Purely personal travel isn't deductible. It only becomes partially deductible if you held a genuine, documented business activity on the same trip, and even then only the business-related portion counts.
    *

    Facebook ads: Keep the ad account invoices or billing statements rather than relying on a card statement line, and make sure the ads promote your business and not personal content.
    *

    Adobe CC: If the subscription is also used for personal projects, deduct only the business portion. Keep the monthly or annual invoices.

    About this skill

    Messy expense lists and vague receipt descriptions make tax season a nightmare for freelancers. This skill transforms raw spending data into structured, audit-ready tax deduction reports based on current CPA standards.

    What it does

    • Strict Categorization maps informal descriptions like "coffee with lead" or "new macbook" to formal tax categories.
    • Deductibility Calculation automatically applies specific limits, such as the 50% rule for business meals.
    • Audit Flagging identifies high-risk claims or personal items that lack sufficient business justification.
    • Financial Mapping translates raw input into professional terminology suitable for accounting software or tax filings.

    How it works

    1. Provide a raw list of expenses, credit card statements, or informal notes.
    2. Specify the freelance profession to ensure industry-specific deduction logic.
    3. Review the generated Markdown table for mapped categories and deductibility percentages.
    4. Check the audit flags section for missing documentation requirements.

    Frameworks & tools

    This skill is designed for individual freelancers, 1099 contractors, and single-member LLCs using standard tax reporting categories.

    Why this beats prompting it yourself

    Generic prompts often miss the nuances of tax law, like the difference between a daily commute and business travel. This skill enforces specific percentage limits and Section 179 expensing logic that standard LLMs frequently overlook.

    Use cases

    • Preparing end-of-year expense reports for an accountant.
    • Categorizing monthly business spending from a mixed personal/business bank statement.
    • Estimating quarterly tax liability based on current deductible spending.

    Known limitations

    Does not support complex corporate tax structures or international tax laws outside of standard US-centric freelance guidelines. It cannot verify if a receipt actually exists.
