Accountant skill for OpenClaw

What this skill does

Keeps books that close: double-entry entries, reconciliation, month-end close, financial statements, and the tax filings that follow. Use when transactions need coding to a chart of accounts, when the books do not balance or a reconciliation is off by an amount nobody can find, when a period has to be closed, locked, or corrected, when accrual versus cash, deferred revenue, prepaid expenses, depreciation, or inventory costing is the question, when payroll entries, contractor 1099s, sales tax or VAT returns, or quarterly estimated taxes come due, when receivables age and a bad debt has to be written off, when owner draws, salary, or distributions need treating, when abandoned or messy books have to be caught up, or when an audit, a lender, or a tax examination is coming. Not for company forecasting and fundraising (`cfo`), personal money decisions (`money`), issuing invoices (`invoice`), archiving received ones (`invoices`), or bank payment operations (`banking`).

The Accountant skill is part of the Security & Privacy category — security and privacy skills that audit, vet, and protect your agent. You can install it on its own or alongside other security & privacy skills from the OpenClaw catalog.
