What it does
This server computes US paycheck and payroll tax calculations for 2026 across all 50 states and DC. It provides take-home pay breakdowns, bonus withholding amounts, state comparisons, and per-state tax rate schedules using real arithmetic based on 2026 tax data.
- Calculate net annual and biweekly pay for a given salary and state, including federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and state income tax.
- Compare take-home pay across multiple states for the same salary to see which state results in the highest net income.
- Determine exact withholding amounts for bonuses under federal supplemental rates and state-specific bonus tax treatment.

Before you enable it
An MCP server runs with whatever access you give it. Start with a development account rather than production, and check which tools the server exposes before you let an agent call them unattended.
