Prepare German taxes with an AI agent for founders and solopreneurs: personal Einkommensteuer and small-company (UG/GmbH) Umsatzsteuer-Voranmeldung, annual USt, Koerperschaftsteuer, Gewerbesteuer, E-Bilanz, Einspruch, Aussetzung der Vollziehung, Vorauszahlungen-Herabsetzung and Fristen, filed through Mein ELSTER with certificate login. Carries the traps that cost real money: section 13b reverse charge on EU and US SaaS (Anthropic Ireland, Cursor, Supabase), vendors billing the placeholder VAT…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# German taxes and ELSTER, done by an agent Built from a real filing season: one founder, one small UG, a personal return, every 2025 return and 2026 Voranmeldung filed through Mein ELSTER by an agent with certificate login, plus the Bescheide, Schaetzungsbescheide and Einsprueche that followed. Every trap below cost money or a correction in that run. Personal data has been removed; amounts in examples are illustrative. **This is not tax advice.** German tax law changes every year. Every claim tagged *(verify)* must be checked against the current law (gesetze-im-internet.de, BMF-Schreiben, the current ELSTER form) before it is relied on. When a case involves a foreign entity, a shareholder dispute, a possible Steuerstraftat (any letter that mentions § 371 AO) or real money at stake, recommend a Steuerberater and say why. ## Safety rules (non-negotiable) 1. **The agent prepares, a human submits or explicitly approves each submission.** Pressing "Absenden"/"Übermitteln" is a legally binding declaration in the taxpayer's name (§ 150 AO). Get an explicit go for *that* form and *those* numbers, in this session. A general "do my taxes" …

How to install
mdr add getedgehq/skills/german-taxes-elster@sha256:2fc4d1c7089e6ca1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261003.55b7860, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
