Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Open-source AI accounting skills verified by licensed accountants (tax, VAT, payroll).

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Accounting, finance & tax

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

Common questions

Is OpenAccountants safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 6 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

OpenAccountants

Open tax skills for AI. Your AI answers tax questions from memory. Add these skills and it answers from the law: every rate, threshold and deadline cited to its official source, for 190+ jurisdictions.

2,132 AI skills across 249 jurisdictions · 33 accountant-reviewed · 39 named accountants · 6,115 questions answered through connected AIs

Live from openaccountants.com — updated 2026-10-30 by the nightly sync.


Find your country

[Browse all countries](skills/COUNTRIES.md), by region, with the state of each pack. United States: federal and states.


Add to your AI

Add this address to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf or any AI that takes a connector:

https://www.openaccountants.com/api/mcp

Guided setup: [openaccountants.com/connect](https://www.openaccountants.com/connect)

Then ask a question your AI would otherwise guess at:

*"What's the combined sales tax rate in Manatee County, Florida for 2026?"*

Prefer self-hosting or manual files?

  • pip MCP server: pip install openaccountants-mcp (mirrors this repo's packages/)
  • Manual: download your jurisdiction's folder from packages/ and upload the files to your AI. Start with your country's main package; index.json is the machine-readable inventory.

Also listed on Smithery and the MCP Registry.


Contribute

Three ways in, all in [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md):

  • I can write. Take a country and write its missing skills from the law.
  • I am an accountant. Review a skill and put your name on it.
  • I found a mistake. Open an issue with the source that shows it.

How to read a skill

Every skill shows Built from the law. An approved accountant publishing their own professional work is also its approver; they record their own approval in the original PR. No second accountant or separate approval PR is required. Skill content is source-available under the terms in LICENSING.md.

Each skill has one approval status:

StateMeaning
Approved by [name]The accountant's approval is recorded with tier: 1, reviewed_by and reviewed_on. The website resolves that name to a current approved accountant account.
Not yet approvedNo named accountant approval is recorded. Independent source checking before merge is separate from professional approval.

The definitions: docs/QUALITY-TIERS.md. How skills are built, checked and corrected: docs/ACCURACY-METHODOLOGY.md. Which number to quote and where it is measured: docs/COVERAGE.md.

⚠️ General reference, not advice. Skills may be incomplete, outdated, or wrong for your facts. Have a qualified professional review outputs before filing, payment, or action.


Need the work done?

OpenAccountants also does the bookkeeping, VAT, payroll and tax work for businesses, in the countries they work in. Talk to us. The skills and the AI connection stay free.


How it stays accurate

A tax library is only as good as its worst stale number, so machines re-check this one every night:

  • The maths check re-reads every skill and flags sums that do not add up, tax bands with gaps, totals that do not total, and years that disagree.
  • The source watch visits the official pages the figures came from and raises a hand when a page changes.
  • The refresh engine re-derives the stalest skills from official sources on a fixed monthly budget, refusing to publish any figure without a link.
  • The nightly exam tests whether AIs actually said what the skills say that day, or improvised. Improvisation gets caught, counted and fixed at the source.

GitHub is the source of truth for skill documents. Merged PRs are delivered to the platform and checked against the published content. Generated packages and indexes are refreshed by the scheduled sync. A merge alone does not prove that a skill is live.
