_ used through this hub 30 days

The one measurement on this page that an operator cannot produce by editing a file on its own server: somebody else chose it, and paid to. Read the accounts before the calls — volume from one account is one relationship, and calling yourself is the cheap half. Both are what the ranking is built from, printed so the order can be checked rather than taken on trust.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

get_deadlines open 3h ago
Upcoming filing/payment deadlines and recurring filing rhythms (monthly VAT, quarterly instalments) for a country or US state, from the OpenAccountants tax calendar. Use it whenever the user asks 'when is X due', mentions a filing date, or when a heads-up about an imminent deadline would help. Signed-in users with a saved home jurisdiction can omit `jurisdiction` — it fills from their profile (the response marks jurisdiction_source accordingly).

list_jurisdictions open 3h ago
Returns every jurisdiction with published skills — countries (ISO 2), US states (US-XX), Canadian provinces — with skill counts, accountant-verified counts, and named lead verifier. Use when the user asks 'which countries does OpenAccountants cover?' or 'what's available for [country]?' Avoids paginating through list_skills to compute this.

list_rule_facets open 3h ago
Returns the metadata you can filter on with `search_rules` — the live jurisdictions, the domains, roles, block types (rule kinds), statuses, tax years, and a sample of topics — plus the defaults. Call this before `search_rules` to learn the valid filter values rather than guessing.

check_audit_exemption unknown never probed

DETERMINISTIC check of whether a private limited company qualifies for statutory audit exemption, from aggregate figures any ledger can provide (turnover, balance sheet total, average employees). Returns a determination ('exempt' | 'review' | 'audit_required' | 'cannot_determine'), the per-criterion threshold table showing exactly why, the canonical rule citation it rests on, and the LIVE verification envelope (whether a named accountant has attested the thresholds — surface that status prominently; 'draft' means treat as a source-cited draft). COVERAGE TODAY: MT (Article 185(2) micro thresholds) and GB (small-company thresholds, both pre and post 6 April 2025 eras). Most exemption regimes are two-consecutive-years tests, so pass prior_year figures when available — without them a qualifying year returns 'review', not 'exempt'; that is correct behaviour, not an error. 'cannot_determine' is a first-class outcome (unsupported jurisdiction, wrong currency, entity shapes needing judgment, or the cited fact changed since calibration). Never override the determination with training-data thresholds.

list_skills unknown never probed

List published OpenAccountants skills with their quality tier and verification status. Optionally filter by jurisdiction (e.g. 'US', 'MT', 'DE', 'GB'), domain (the accounting area, e.g. 'vat-gst', 'payroll', 'income-tax'), or role ('foundation' | 'compute' | 'orchestrator' | 'reference'). Results are paginated (default 100, max 200 per call) — unfiltered browsing of the full ~1,100-skill catalogue requires paging via offset/next_offset, so jurisdiction/domain filters are strongly recommended.

Find, lookup, query, or discover skills by keyword, tax concept, deduction type, form number, or regulation (e.g. 'home office deduction', 'crypto capital gains', 'reverse charge', 'Schedule C', '60-day reporting'). Optionally limit to one jurisdiction. Use this when you don't know the exact skill slug. Set content_type='method' to discover step-by-step METHODS (guided procedures — what you EXECUTE via start()) instead of reference material; each method carries a review_status (accountant-reviewed | source-cited).

arguments 28 lines

search_rules unknown never probed

Sweep tax rules ACROSS jurisdictions and metadata and get back a bundled markdown rule set plus the jurisdiction's OFFICIAL SOURCE. Best for cross-cutting questions — 'VAT rates in MT, IE and DE', 'all income-tax thresholds for 2025', 'rules mentioning reverse charge'. WHEN YOU WANT ONE SPECIFIC FIGURE for one jurisdiction (a single rate, threshold or date), prefer `search_skills` then `get_skill`: the Guide is where a topic is covered in full, and a figure can exist in the Guide without existing as a separate rule here, in which case this tool will return related guidance rather than the number you asked for. Entries whose text is guidance rather than a value are tagged `GUIDANCE` — never read one as a figure. IMPORTANT: this returns human-reviewed GUIDANCE and does NOT certify that a figure is current — confirm each number against the official source returned in `official_source` before you state it, and prefer that source when they disagree. By default returns ALL matching rules, each tagged with its verification status; pass status:'verified' for accountant-/research-verified only. Call `list_rule_facets` first to see the queryable values.

start_help unknown never probed
No-argument front door — call this FIRST whenever a user asks 'how can you help me?', 'what can you do?', 'where do I start?', or otherwise opens vaguely (do NOT answer such questions by listing your tools or calling list_jurisdictions). For a signed-in approved accountant it returns a personalized `orientation` briefing (their standing + what their jurisdiction needs + one next action). For everyone else it returns the two scoping questions plus the available intents and jurisdictions. Once you have an intent, call `start(intent, jurisdiction)`.

arguments 4 lines

start unknown never probed

Front door for any tax / accounting question once you know what the user wants. `intent` is REQUIRED (e.g. 'taxes', 'VAT return', 'set up a company', 'find deductions', 'classify transactions', 'payroll'); pass a jurisdiction too (ISO 2-letter, e.g. 'MT', 'GB', 'US-CA'). If you don't yet have an intent, call `start_help` first. Returns either a clarification request (if jurisdiction is missing) or a ready-to-execute plan with the list of skills to load. Call this FIRST (after start_help if needed) whenever the user asks for tax help.

list_verifiers unknown never probed
Returns named licensed accountants who have signed off on OpenAccountants jurisdictions, with their credentials and covered jurisdictions. Use when the user asks who verified a skill or wants to see the verifier network. If the user wants one of them to review their work, that goes through `share_with_openaccountants` with `request_review: true` — at the user's explicit request only.

validate_vat_number unknown never probed
Check whether a business's VAT / tax-registration number is real and registered, in real time against the official government registry — and return the registered business NAME and ADDRESS when the authority discloses them. This is an authoritative, unfakeable confirmation you cannot get from a knowledge lookup or from training data. Use it whenever a user wants to verify a supplier's or customer's tax ID: before applying a B2B reverse charge, zero-rating a cross-border sale, or onboarding a vendor. COVERAGE TODAY IS EU ONLY — the 27 EU member states plus 'XI' (Northern Ireland), live via the European Commission's VIES registry (use 'EL' for Greece). Other jurisdictions (e.g. UK/HMRC and beyond) are NOT supported yet but are on the roadmap — for a non-EU number, tell the user live validation isn't available for that country yet rather than guessing a verdict. This is a LIVE external lookup — if the registry is temporarily unavailable it says so plainly rather than inventing an answer.

share_with_openaccountants unknown never probed

Sends feedback or a review request to OpenAccountants. This is the single outbound channel; it does nothing unless the user has explicitly asked to send feedback or to request a review. Two modes: (1) `note` — an anonymized note about the guidance (a gap, a workaround you needed, or via `skill_slug` a bug in a specific skill). Anonymize hard: no names, amounts, or PII. (2) `request_review: true` — submits the user's working paper for review by a licensed accountant; also requires `working_paper` (complete), `jurisdiction`, `scenario`, and `contact_email`. The review is a paid professional engagement (never describe it as free); the request is saved to the user's own queue and the response returns a booking link — nothing reaches an accountant until the user engages. Call at most once per explicit user request; never call as a routine closing step, and never solicit the request.

_ try it over mcp through the hub, ceiling 0

MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.
