Overview

AI-generated overview

A read-only US tax reference server that explains IRS notices, forms and deadlines and produces clearly labeled estimates from nonidentifying figures.

What you can do
Decode IRS notice codes and explain US tax forms and information documents in general terms, without the documents themselves being submitted. Screen IRS payment and collection options, ITIN eligibility, Form 5472 triggers, FBAR and Form 8938 thresholds, and US-Turkey treaty withholding rules. Estimate federal penalties, quarterly tax payments, accountable-plan reimbursements, the Augusta rule, and basic rental income from coarse figures. Return common federal filing and payment dates for a selected filer or entity type.
When to use it
Useful when someone has a US tax question at a general level — an IRS notice code, a form they do not recognize, a filing deadline, or a rough estimate — and wants an explanation or screening answer rather than a filed return or a transcript lookup.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no package, environment variable or header is declared, and no authentication is declared.
Before you install
Results are educational screens and estimates, not IRS determinations or advice; deadlines must be checked for weekends, holidays, extensions and fiscal years. The tools are designed to avoid taxpayer identifiers, notice documents, account numbers and identity documents, so do not supply them. Nothing here prepares or files a form.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Arc & Ledger Tax Reference in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.arcandledger%2Ftax-tools/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
