claude-itr2-filing-skill: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

claude-itr2-filing-skill CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from gargraman/claude-itr2-filing-skill. It costs 1,361 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of repository instructions for editing a Claude agent skill that helps Indian individuals file income-tax returns. It explains the repository structure and says validation is manual because the project contains guidance documents rather than application code.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for maintaining tax guidance in Markdown, checking it against Indian tax references, and preserving the links and cross-references between the skill's files.
Why use it?
It prevents developers from treating the repository like a normal software application with builds and automated tests, and directs them to check tax sources and document links instead.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

claude-itr2-filing-skill CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 14d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

What this repo is

This is not an application — it is a Claude Agent Skill: a package of prose instructions (SKILL.md + references/*.md) that guides a resident Indian individual through filing ITR-2 / ITR-3 for AY 2026-27 (FY 2025-26). There is no code, no build system, no dependencies, no tests. "Editing this repo" means editing tax-domain markdown, and the correctness bar is factual/legal accuracy against Indian tax law — not a passing test suite.

There are no build, lint, or test commands. Validation is manual: re-read the changed reference against its cited source (incometax.gov.in circular, Finance Act 2025, ICAI Guidance Note), and check cross-references between files still line up (see "Invariants" below).

Architecture

The whole skill runs on progressive disclosure, and that constraint drives every structural decision:

  • SKILL.md is the only file loaded up-front. It holds the YAML frontmatter (name, description — the description is what triggers the skill, so it enumerates every keyword a user might type), the hard gates, the load-on-demand table, and the 7-step workflow. It must stay small; it delegates all tax detail to references/.
  • references/*.md are loaded only when their topic becomes active during the workflow. SKILL.md's load-on-demand table (the "When to load" column) is the contract: each reference is pulled in at a specific step or on a specific trigger, never preloaded. When adding or renaming a reference, update that table in the same change.

The 7 steps are sequential and gated — Intake+form-selection → Schedule triage → Per-schedule walkthrough → AIS/26AS reconciliation → Regime comparison → Final summary (the CONFIRMED gate) → JSON generation. Output at every step is governed by references/output-format.md, which defines numbered templates (Template 0–7); the workflow steps reference those templates by number rather than improvising layout.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
