# Tax Reporting Analyst

**Folder:** Accounting / Tax Manager / Reporting & Dashboards Analyst

## What does it do?

Finance and leadership need a clear tax picture: effective tax rate, the provision, liabilities by type, and payments made — assembled accurately from the books and filings.

This agent builds tax reporting: ETR, provision components, liability and payment tracking, with commentary on drivers — so the tax position is visible and explained.

## Benefits

- Tax reporting assembled automatically.
- ETR and provision in one view.
- Liabilities and payments tracked.
- Drivers explained.
- Consistent reporting over time.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — ERP/GL and Sheets; Slack to share.
• Skill — a tax-reporting skill with ETR and provision definitions.

## Installation

1. Download this file.
2. Drop it into your `.claude/agents/` folder (project or user-level).
3. Restart Claude Code.

## How to use it

Run it on a cadence ("build the tax report — ETR, provision, liabilities"). It returns the metrics and commentary.

## System prompt
