    Skills

    Free accounting and tax skills for AI agents — extraction, matching, footing, tie-outs, and anomaly detection. Every skill proves its own work and refuses to deliver a workpaper that doesn't tie. Everything runs on your machine: no cloud, no API keys, no uploads.

    Document extraction and conversion

    • Bank statement → Excel

      bank-statement-to-excel

      Convert PDF bank, credit card, and merchant-processor statements into a clean workbook with dates, descriptions, debits, credits, and running balance — and prove the extraction is complete against the statement’s own control totals. Local OCR for scans.

    • Schedule K-1 → standardized summary

      k1-extract-summarize

      Extract Schedule K-1 data box by box with the code preserved, then foot the aggregate K-1s to the entity return. Detects a missing K-1 through ownership percentages and a two-way recipient reconciliation. Full TINs rejected on input.

    • Receipts → expense spreadsheet

      receipts-to-expense

      Receipt images to an expense spreadsheet, proved by each receipt’s own internal sum — subtotal plus tax plus tip equals the printed total, a check independent of the OCR. Output schema is expense-policy-testing’s input schema exactly.

    Foundational — run before the rest

    • Month-end close checklist

      month-end-close-checklist

      A close checklist derived from your trial balance, not a generic template. Assigns the right procedure per account from what the account is, and names the skill that performs it. An account absent from the checklist is reported as not considered — the usual close failure.

    • Trial balance and chart of accounts integrity

      trial-balance-integrity

      Run first on a new client, cleanup, or conversion. Debits equalling credits proves almost nothing; this proves every account maps to a statement line, the mapping foots, and surfaces duplicates like Repairs & Maintenance versus Repairs and Maintenance.

    Reconciliation and close

    • Bank reconciliation → GL

      bank-rec-to-gl

      Reconcile a bank statement to the GL cash account through a six-pass matching cascade, then produce the four-column reconciliation, the journal entries for unrecorded bank items, and aged outstanding-item schedules.

    • Year-over-year variance

      return-yoy-variance

      Compare two years line by line under dual materiality, flag the movements and the suspicious non-movements, and enforce that every explanation is causal and quantified.

    • Payroll tax reconciliation

      payroll-tax-reconciliation

      Four-way tie across the payroll register, the four Forms 941, W-2/W-3, and the GL. Infers the Social Security wage base from the data rather than asserting one, and isolates undeposited trust-fund tax.

    • Three-way match

      three-way-match

      PO to invoice to receiving, with four duplicate-detection patterns, quantity and price tolerances, vendor-level pattern rollup, and a quantified goods-received-not-invoiced accrual.

    • Depreciation and fixed asset tie-out

      depreciation-tie-out

    Tax

    • Tax return review

      tax-return-review

      Review a prepared return against a structured checklist with evidence for every item tested. Starts with what’s missing — dropped carryforwards, absent forms, unfiled information returns. Checklists for 1040, 1120-S, 1065, 1120, depreciation, and amended returns.

    • Year-over-year variance

      return-yoy-variance

      Compare two years line by line under dual materiality, flag the movements and the suspicious non-movements, and enforce that every explanation is causal and quantified.

    • Schedule K-1 → standardized summary

      k1-extract-summarize

      Extract Schedule K-1 data box by box with the code preserved, then foot the aggregate K-1s to the entity return. Detects a missing K-1 through ownership percentages and a two-way recipient reconciliation. Full TINs rejected on input.

    • Depreciation and fixed asset tie-out

      depreciation-tie-out

      Fixed asset register to depreciation schedule to return. Recomputes straight-line exactly; tests accelerated methods for consistency without asserting any rate. Catches disposed assets still depreciating and beginning balances that do not agree to the prior year.

    • Sales and use tax reconciliation

    Audit and assurance

    • Bank reconciliation → GL

      bank-rec-to-gl

      Reconcile a bank statement to the GL cash account through a six-pass matching cascade, then produce the four-column reconciliation, the journal entries for unrecorded bank items, and aged outstanding-item schedules.

    • Journal entry anomaly scan

      journal-entry-anomaly-scan

      Full-population journal entry scan across 26 tests — duplicates, round-dollar, weekend, after-hours, self-approval, threshold circumvention, unreversed accruals, Benford — with accumulating risk scores.

    • Audit sampling

      audit-sampling

      MUS/PPS, stratified, and attribute selection with a mandatory seed so the sample can be re-performed exactly. Population must tie to a control total; negative balances need an explicit decision. Projects with tainting.

    • Three-way match

      three-way-match

      PO to invoice to receiving, with four duplicate-detection patterns, quantity and price tolerances, vendor-level pattern rollup, and a quantified goods-received-not-invoiced accrual.

    • AR aging tie-out

      ar-aging-tie-out

    Payroll

    • Payroll tax reconciliation

      payroll-tax-reconciliation

      Four-way tie across the payroll register, the four Forms 941, W-2/W-3, and the GL. Infers the Social Security wage base from the data rather than asserting one, and isolates undeposited trust-fund tax.

    Fixed asset register to depreciation schedule to return. Recomputes straight-line exactly; tests accelerated methods for consistency without asserting any rate. Catches disposed assets still depreciating and beginning balances that do not agree to the prior year.

  • AR aging tie-out

    ar-aging-tie-out

    Ties the aging to the GL control account and then recomputes every bucket from the invoice date — because the total can agree while the aging is wrong. Grosses up netted credits, tests cutoff, and uses subsequent receipts to separate collection timing from valuation.

  • Cash flow statement tie-out

    cash-flow-tieout

    Indirect-method statement of cash flows with working capital derived from the balance sheet rather than taken from the statement. Cross-checks every non-operating movement, so a plug hidden in an “other” caption is caught even when the statement foots.

  • Month-end close checklist

    month-end-close-checklist

    A close checklist derived from your trial balance, not a generic template. Assigns the right procedure per account from what the account is, and names the skill that performs it. An account absent from the checklist is reported as not considered — the usual close failure.

  • sales-tax-reconciliation

    Filed returns to the sales ledger to the GL, with a liability rollforward that isolates collected-but-unremitted tax. Derives rates from the returns and produces a nexus screening schedule rather than a conclusion. Separates marketplace-facilitated sales throughout.

  • Filing diff

    filing-diff

    Compares two versions of a filing field by field. Catches what an ordinary diff cannot: a total that did not move while its components did, a field that stayed put where a dependent one moved, and any change made after review sign-off.

  • Ties the aging to the GL control account and then recomputes every bucket from the invoice date — because the total can agree while the aging is wrong. Grosses up netted credits, tests cutoff, and uses subsequent receipts to separate collection timing from valuation.

  • Revenue trace to source

    revenue-trace-to-source

    Traces revenue from the GL through invoice, contract, delivery and cash. States direction and assertion explicitly, since this tests occurrence and cannot detect unrecorded revenue. Matches subsequent credit memos against tested revenue.

  • Expense and T&E policy testing

    expense-policy-testing

    Tests expense, T&E, and card spend against the client’s own written policy across fourteen exception types including split transactions. Organised by approver first — an approver with a high exception rate explains the other findings.

  • Cutoff and search for unrecorded liabilities

    cutoff-and-unrecorded-liabilities

    Search for unrecorded liabilities and cutoff testing, working on what was not recorded. Classifies on the service date, not the invoice or payment date, and treats a missing service date as unclassified rather than guessing.

  • Bank reconciliation review

    bank-rec-review

    Audits a reconciliation someone else prepared — recomputes from item detail, not the preparer’s subtotals, and tests subsequent clearance, which is what catches a fabricated item, a stale item, and a plug alike.

  • Audit workpaper

    audit-workpaper

    Objective, population, procedures, evidence, exceptions, conclusion — then validates that the conclusion is supported. Refuses “no exceptions noted” when exceptions exist, which is the most frequently cited documentation deficiency in inspection.
