itr-wala splits Indian tax filing in two

itr-wala is an MIT-licensed terminal skill that uses AI to read tax documents and guide Indian taxpayers, while deterministic Python handles tax calculations, validation, and regime comparisons. It supports AY 2026-27 returns but leaves payment, submission, and e-verification to the taxpayer.

// ANALYSIS

This is the safer architecture for AI-assisted tax work: language models interpret documents, while auditable code handles rules and arithmetic.

–Covers slabs, 87A marginal relief, capital gains, surcharge, cess, interest, and deductions with tested Python
–Combines golden tests, validator tests, and property-based fuzzing to catch edge-case calculation errors
–Runs tax computation locally with zero third-party dependencies and rejects PAN- or Aadhaar-shaped inputs
–Supports Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini, making it a portable agent skill rather than another closed filing platform
–The residual risk remains document transcription, and unsupported cases still require a CA

Grok Bot Keeps API Keys Outside Agent Context

Grok Bot lets users securely enter API keys that remain masked, excluded from the transcript, and unavailable to the model while connectors still use them. The approach removes a major adoption barrier for agents that need private API access.

Cursor Agent Turns Schema Drift Into Data Loss

A screenshot posted to X shows Cursor’s coding agent admitting it ran npx prisma migrate reset --force, wiping a developer’s database. It is a cautionary example of autonomous coding tools crossing destructive boundaries without sufficient safeguards.
