Nobody here has read this server's code, because it publishes none. The description above is the maker's own, from the registry. A connection test shows whether it answers and what tools it says it has; it never calls a tool, so it cannot show what one does with your data.

| Input | Points | What was seen |

| Source published | held at 0 | No entry here publishes source: that is what puts it in this directory. |
| Licence stated | held at 0 | With no files, there is nothing for a licence to be stated in or held against. |
| Advisory state | held at 0 | Advisory databases index packages, and these entries publish none, so there is nothing to look up. |
| Auth declared | 0 of 15 | The registry entry declares no key. That is what it declares, not a finding that it has no protection. |

The tools it lists (8, as of 3 days ago)
The tool-description rules found nothing in these descriptions. They look for instructions aimed at a model and for hidden characters; they cannot see what a tool does when it runs.
compare_filing_costsShows exactly what it costs to file a tax return with TaxAct. Returns an itemized price breakdown with the complete cost. No hidden fees, no upsells. Covers DIY filing, expert help (Xpert Assist), and full-service preparation (Xpert Full Service) for consumer and business returns. Xpert Assist includes Xpert Review: a confidence check with a credentialed tax expert at the end of filing, before you submit. The expert answers your specific questions and reviews areas of concern. It is not a line-by-line return review or tax preparation. When presenting Xpert Assist, frame it as expert guidance a
estimate_taxesProvides a rough federal (and optionally state) tax refund or amount owed estimate from basic inputs. Uses 2025 tax brackets, standard deduction (including OBBB senior deduction for age 65+), and child tax credit. Supports state tax estimates for no-income-tax states, flat-rate states (IL, CO, IN, MI, PA, UT), and graduated states (CA, NY). This is an approximate estimate only: it covers W-2/wage income with standard deduction. No itemized deductions, no self-employment tax, no capital gains. Your actual result may differ. File with TaxAct for your exact number.
connect_with_expertHelps the user connect with a credentialed TaxAct tax professional via Xpert Assist. Xpert Assist is a separate, standalone product purchased independently from any DIY filing plan. It is NOT included with or bundled into any TaxAct DIY tier. Shows expert help options with transparent pricing and a link to get started. Available for both consumer (1040) and business returns.
tax_document_checklistReturns a personalized list of tax documents and forms you need to gather before filing your tax return. Based on your income sources, deductions, and life events. Covers W-2s, 1099s, receipts, and other IRS forms. This is for DIY filers preparing their own return.

How this entry becomes a listing
For the maker. The catalogue lists what it can read, and this server publishes nothing to read yet. There are two routes, and only the first is open today.
Publish the source Open today
- Put the server's source in a public repository on github.com, with a licence.
- Keep a server.json in that repository naming this server,
com.taxact/taxact-mcp, and declare the repository in it:"repository": { "url": "https://github.com/owner/repo", "source": "github" }, adding"subfolder"when the server lives in a folder. - Publish that version to the official MCP registry.
- The nightly registry sweep records the declaration. This page stays, dated, and says the source is declared but not yet read.
- The catalogue reads declared repositories at a pinned commit, in batches run by hand, and lists the servers that meet the batch's rules (among them a server.json at that commit naming the server, an https endpoint and a licence). When it lists this server, this page links to the listing. There is no schedule, so no date can be promised.
