A method is not a product until something runs it.
These are open source because a method nobody can inspect is not a method. But a skill is only the method — deciqAI is what runs it against a real client file: documents chased and identified, thresholds tested against the actual statements, every figure computed by an engine and traced to the page it came from, for a licensed professional to review and sign.

FAQ
What are deciqAI Knowledge Skills?
Open-source skills that make a professional method executable for an AI agent — each one with the conditions it applies under, what it produces, and cited sources. This page lists the tax and finance skills: return-preparation due diligence, filing-position consequences, busy-season throughput, customs classification and duty exposure, and RIA fiduciary compliance. They are part of a wider open library of 233 skills covering decision-making, cognitive bias, strategy and other industries.
Are the skills free?
Yes — all 233 are open source and free to install and use in any AI agent. They're the same skills wired into every deciqAI agent.
How do I install the skills?
Run `npx skills add deciqAI/knowledge-skills` to add all 233, or grab any single skill from the GitHub repo at github.com/deciqAI/knowledge-skills. Each skill is a self-contained SKILL.md with worked examples and cited references.
How do these relate to the deciqAI product?
deciqAI runs these methods against a real client file: documents chased and identified, thresholds tested against the actual statements, every figure computed by a deterministic engine and traced to the page it came from — for a licensed CPA or EA to review and sign. The skills are open-sourced so anyone can use the method; the product is what executes it on a file.
