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/io.github.theluckystrike%2Fcar-loan-interest-deduction-calculator-mcp/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

An MCP server that calculates the 2025-2028 car loan interest deduction, the new SALT cap, the $2,200 child tax credit and the 2025 and 2026 federal brackets from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (P.L. 119-21), using IRS forms and revenue procedures.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
calculate_car_loan_interest_deductionDeduction for car loan interest after the $10,000 cap and the $200-per-$1,000 MAGI phase-out over $100,000 ($200,000 joint). Checks the vehicle and loan tests: new, US final assembly, personal use, loan after 2024, under 14,000 lb, first lien, not a lease.
calculate_salt_deductionDeductible state and local tax under the $40,000 (2025) and $40,400 (2026) cap, the 30% phase-down over $500,000 / $505,000 MAGI and the $10,000 floor. Covers 2027-2029 steps and the 2030 return to $10,000. Optionally compares itemizing with the standard deduction.
get_tax_brackets_and_standard_deduction2025 and 2026 brackets and standard deductions, the extra amount for age 65 or blind, and the tax and marginal rate on a given taxable income.
calculate_child_tax_credit$2,200 per child and $500 per other dependent, the 5% phase-out, the tax liability limit and the refundable part up to $1,700 per child.

Every result has structured JSON, a plain-English summary, as_of, source (the irs.gov document) and more (a calculator page on taxbreakcalc.com).

What it knows that your model does not

  • The car loan interest deduction started in tax year 2025, after most models were trained. You can take it without itemizing.
  • Its phase-out is $200 for each $1,000 or part of $1,000 over the threshold. One dollar over $149,000 (single) wipes out the last $200. Schedule 1-A line 28 rounds up.
  • Only new vehicles with final assembly in the US qualify, the loan must be originated after December 31, 2024, and leases never count.
  • Married filing separately can claim it, with the same $100,000 threshold as single filers.
  • The SALT cap is $40,000 for 2025 and $40,400 for 2026, not $10,000. Above $500,000 of MAGI it shrinks by 30 cents per dollar, but never below $10,000.
  • The 2026 standard deduction is $16,100 single and $32,200 joint (Rev. Proc. 2025-32). The child tax credit is $2,200, with up to $1,700 refundable.
  • The IRS has not published 2027 amounts yet (checked 2026-11-02). The tools say so instead of guessing.

  • "Does a used car or a leased car qualify for the no tax on car loan interest deduction?"

  • "What is the 2026 standard deduction and what is my federal tax on $60,000 of taxable income?"
  • "We have two kids under 17 and MAGI of $410,500. What is our 2026 child tax credit?"

Data sources

All numbers come from documents fetched on 2026-11-02: the 2025 Schedule 1-A and Form 1040 instructions, IRS Notice 2025-57, the 2025 Schedule A instructions and 2026 draft Schedule A, IRC 164(b)(7), Rev. Proc. 2024-40, Rev. Proc. 2025-32 and the 2025 Schedule 8812 with its instructions. See DATA_SOURCES.md for each item and URL.

Limitations

  • Results are estimates, not tax advice.
  • Federal income tax only. State taxes on the same items are not covered.
  • It does not look up a VIN. Check final assembly on the vehicle label or the NHTSA VIN decoder.
  • 2027-2029 SALT amounts follow the statute's 101% rule; the IRS may round them when it prints the forms.
  • The child tax credit tool does not model the Schedule 8812 alternative for three or more children based on social security and Medicare tax.
  • Overtime, tips and the senior deduction are in a separate server: no-tax-on-overtime-mcp.

calculate_car_loan_interest_deduction

Car loan interest deduction (2025-2028)

Calculates the 2025-2028 federal deduction for car loan interest created by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (P.L. 119-21, IRC 163(h)(4)) the way IRS Schedule 1-A Part IV does: up to $10,000 of qualified passenger vehicle loan interest, then $200 off for each $1,000 or part of $1,000 of MAGI over $100,000 ($200,000 married filing jointly), so it reaches $0 at $149,001 ($249,001 joint). Checks the eligibility tests: loan originated after Dec 31 2024, new vehicle, final assembly in the US, personal use, car/minivan/van/SUV/pickup/motorcycle under 14,000 lb GVWR, first lien, not a lease. Available whether or not you itemize. Rules copied from the 2025 Schedule 1-A, Form 1040 instructions and IRS Notice 2025-57.

Uses the IRS State and Local Tax Deduction Worksheet. Optionally compares itemizing with the standard deduction. Amounts copied from the 2025 Schedule A instructions, the 2026 draft Schedule A and the statute.
