Claude skill to do your taxes

TL;DR Claude Code did my 2024 and 2025 taxes. Added a skill that anyone can use to do their own. I tested it against TurboTax on my own 2024 and 2025 return. Same result without clicking through 45 minutes of wizard steps. Would love PRs or feedback as we come up on tax season. Learnings from replacing TurboTax with Claude Skill looping The first iteration of my taxes took almost an hour and a decent amount of prompting. Many context compactions, tons of PDF issues, lots of exploration. When it was done, I asked Claude to write the skill to make it faster the next time (eg: Always check for…

Same result without clicking through 45 minutes of wizard steps. Would love PRs or feedback as we come up on tax season. Learnings from replacing TurboTax with Claude Skill looping The first iteration of my taxes took almost an hour and a decent amount of prompting. Many context compactions, tons of PDF issues, lots of exploration. When it was done, I asked Claude to write the skill to make it faster the next time (eg: Always check for XFA tags first when discovering form fields) Skills aren’t just .MD files anymore Now they’re folders that can contain code snippets, example files, rules. In 2025 we were all building custom agents with custom tools. In 2026 every agent has its own code execution, network connection, and workspace. So it’s custom skills on the same agent (trending towards Claude Code or Cowork)

    I Made a Claude Skill for Spec-Driven Development (SDD)May 2026 · github.com · ▲40

    At my work they provided a single Claude subscription for everyone on the team. To be honest I like kiro better as it provides a way better SDD management. But the company can't provide it and I can't afford it yet. Turns out I had the skill creator skill in my claude instance so I made use of it to create this Skill. I made it fully by using Claude but I wanted to make it open source, so I asked it to help me make tests and preparations for it, even a CI to run python tests. Well, we got this results with it: - Phase 2A: 67 static assertions (Python script, runs in CI) - Phase 2B: 15…

    Claude-account – switch Claude Code accounts without logging in againJul 2026 · github.com · ▲54

    I use separate Claude Code accounts for work and personal projects. Having to log out and go through the login flow every time I switched accounts became annoying, so I built a small CLI to solve it. The commands are intentionally simple: claude account add myworkaccount claude account add mypersonalaccount claude account use myworkaccount claude account current After switching, Claude Code works normally: claude claude "fix this bug in main.py" Repository: https://github.com/hamzarehmandeveloper/claude-account Give it a try

    A registry for curated, high quality Claude skills and skillsetsJan 2026 · noriskillsets.dev · ▲9

    Hi Hacker News! I’m Ritam, working with the small but mighty team at Nori. We’ve been obsessed in recent months with how to take tools like Claude Code from “I’ll experiment around with this” to “This is the most useful and necessary thing I use every day”. When I first sat down with our team to check out what they’d built, I found my skepticism about agentic coding melting away—they’d built useful, high quality, handwritten skills, instructions that functioned as “skillsets” to tie skills together for consistent and replicable results, and tooling to manage loading the right context for the…
