AgentTax MCP Server
Tax compliance for MCP tool developers and AI agents, powered by AgentTax.
For MCP tool developers
If you build MCP tools that charge for usage, you have sales tax obligations in states where your buyers are located. Most payment processors don't handle this correctly for digital services.
Add AgentTax to your MCP setup and call track_payment after every payment. That's it.
{
"mcpServers": {
"agenttax": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@agenttax/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"AGENTTAX_API_KEY": "atx_live_your_key"
}
}
}
}
After a payment:
track_payment({
amount: 49.00,
buyer_state: "TX",
buyer_zip: "78701",
description: "MCP API access — monthly subscription",
payment_id: "pi_stripe_abc123",
source: "stripe"
})
Returns your tax liability, compliance status, and logs it to your account. All transactions are viewable in your AgentTax dashboard.
Stripe webhook (fully automated)
For fully automatic tax tracking without calling any tool manually, point your Stripe webhook to AgentTax:
- In Stripe Dashboard → Developers → Webhooks, add an endpoint:
https://agenttax.io/api/v1/webhooks/stripe?key=atx_live_YOUR_KEY - Select events:
payment_intent.succeeded,checkout.session.completed,invoice.paid,charge.succeeded - Optional: set
metadata.work_typeon your Stripe products (compute|research|content|consulting|trading) for precise tax classification
Every payment is automatically classified, taxed, and logged. No code changes required.
Requires a billing address on the Stripe payment. Enable full address collection in your Stripe Checkout settings.

Claude Code
claude mcp add agenttax -- npx @agenttax/mcp-server
export AGENTTAX_API_KEY=atx_live_your_key

Demo mode works without a key (50 calls/day, no account required). Tools marked "Yes" below need AGENTTAX_API_KEY.

track_payment
track_payment({
amount: 49.00,
buyer_state: "TX",
buyer_zip: "78701",
description: "MCP tool subscription",
work_type: "content",
payment_id: "pi_stripe_abc123",
source: "stripe"
})
Returns tax_owed, tax_rate, taxable, transaction_id, a classification (where the work type came from) and a compliance_note. Sellers get $0 in states where no nexus is configured; the response says so in nexus_warning.
Pass work_type explicitly (compute | research | information_service | content | consulting | trading) when you know what you sold. It is a declaration and gives the exact answer, and it is the only way the consulting or trading exemption applies: for example, AI consulting sold to an Arizona buyer is an exempt professional service (A.R.S. §42-5061(A)(1), TPR 93-48), so work_type: "consulting" returns $0 in AZ. Without work_type the server guesses from description, but a guess never takes the consulting or trading exemption: a description that looks like consulting (e.g. "SOC 2 audit platform subscription") or trading is taxed as SaaS, and classification.note tells you to resend with work_type if the guess was right. A description that looks like compute or research keeps the 1.1.1 classification, which can tax less than SaaS in some states (e.g. CT, MD, SC, TN, WV); pass work_type for an exact answer. Leave is_b2b out when you don't know the buyer; false declares a consumer. Upgrading from 1.1.1? Some track_payment results change; see CHANGELOG.md.
calculate_tax
calculate_tax({
role: "buyer",
amount: 500,
buyer_state: "TX",
buyer_zip: "78701",
transaction_type: "compute",
work_type: "compute",
counterparty_id: "seller-agent-123",
is_b2b: true
})
Optional fields: seller_state / seller_zip (origin-sourced intrastate sales in TX, UT, AZ, TN and some OH sales), use_context (Maryland B2B), digital_content_type (with transaction_type: "digital_good"), seller_remitting. transaction_type and work_type are sent exactly as given and treated as declared facts; don't guess them (consulting is exempt in Arizona).
Nexus
get_nexus_thresholds({ state: "NY" }) // what triggers registration
configure_nexus({ nexus: { TX: { hasNexus: true, reason: "Economic nexus" } } })
get_nexus() // what you have configured
Capital gains and 1099-DA
log_trade({ asset_symbol: "ETH", trade_type: "buy", quantity: 2, price_per_unit: 2500, asset_class: "crypto" })
log_trade({ asset_symbol: "ETH", trade_type: "sell", quantity: 1, price_per_unit: 3100, asset_class: "crypto" })
export_1099_da({ year: 2026 }) // draft, not a filed return
Get an API Key
curl -X POST https://agenttax.io/api/v1/auth/signup \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"email": "[email protected]", "password": "securepass", "agent_name": "my-mcp-server", "agent_work_type": "compute"}'
All four fields are required; agent_work_type is one of compute, research, information_service, content, consulting, trading. Save the api_key.key from the response — it's only shown once.
