How you could try it

Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Claude Code or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.

Finance task: manage investments, taxes and credit. Tabulate numbers, mark uncertainties, and do not file, pay, or submit until I confirm.

Tip: Keep the agent in 'propose, don't pay' mode: let it gather numbers and draft messages, and approve any payment or account change yourself.
