Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by openaccountants on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Af Vat Gst AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/openaccountants/openaccountants/tree/main/agent-skills/af-vat-gst
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/openaccountants/openaccountants.git /tmp/openaccountants
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/openaccountants/agent-skills/af-vat-gst .claude/skills/af-vat-gst

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Af Vat Gst in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Af Vat Gst on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Af Vat Gst is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Afghanistan VAT / GST

VAT status and Business Receipts Tax

Afghanistan has enacted a VAT Law but, as of 2025, its commencement has been repeatedly postponed and it is not generally operational. In practice the consumption-type levy in force is the Business Receipts Tax (BRT), a tax on gross turnover with no input-credit mechanism.

Operational VAT — No general VAT is currently operational; the VAT Law's entry into force has been deferred ((approx — confirm current commencement status with ARD)) (Value Added Tax Law (not yet in force))
Legislated VAT standard rate (when in force) — 10 percent (Value Added Tax Law)
Legislated VAT registration threshold — 150,000,000 AFN annual turnover ((approx — confirm; applies only when VAT commences)) (Value Added Tax Law)
Business Receipts Tax — general rate — 4% of gross receipts percent (Income Tax Law 2009)
BRT — small restaurants — 2% of gross receipts percent ((approx — confirm sector classification)) (Income Tax Law 2009)
BRT — hotels, large restaurants, club halls — 5% of gross receipts percent (Income Tax Law 2009)
BRT — telecom / airlines — 5% of gross receipts (incl. telecom services fee components where applicable) percent ((approx — confirm)) (Income Tax Law 2009)
BRT tax base — Total gross receipts (sales) before any deduction; no input credit (Income Tax Law 2009)
BRT filing / payment frequency — Quarterly (Income Tax Law 2009)
Reverse charge — Not applicable while VAT is not operational; BRT has no reverse-charge mechanism (Income Tax Law 2009)

Frequently asked questions

What does the Af Vat Gst AI skill do?

Source-cited draft: vat / gst for Afghanistan (tax year 2025) — rates, thresholds and rules with primary-source citations. Unverified; pending local-accountant review.

Why use Af Vat Gst on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Af Vat Gst is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Af Vat Gst in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/openaccountants/openaccountants/tree/main/agent-skills/af-vat-gst. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Af Vat Gst?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Af Vat Gst?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Af Vat Gst with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Af Vat Gst AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by openaccountants under the AGPL-3.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
