What it does

Kraken Tax Export is an agent skill from krakenfx/kraken-cli. Export trade history, ledgers, and cost basis data for tax reporting.

Its SKILL.md is about 810 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Tax preparation. The repository describes itself as: The first AI-native CLI for trading crypto, stocks, forex, and derivatives. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Tax preparation

Example prompts

  • “/kraken-tax-export”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Export all trades for the tax year (CSV).
  2. Import into tax software (Koinly, CoinTracker, etc.).
  3. Verify deposit/withdrawal records match exchange data.
  4. Cross-reference staking rewards from ledger entries.
  5. Generate tax report.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa56e59. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Kraken Tax Export loads about 809 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 240 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~809

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

kraken-tax-export

Use this skill for:

  • exporting trades and ledgers for tax preparation
  • generating CSV exports for import into tax software
  • computing realized gains from trade history
  • auditing deposits and withdrawals for completeness

Trade Export

Request a full trade export for a tax year:

bash
kraken export-report --report trades --description "2024 tax year" --format CSV --starttm 1704067200 --endtm 1735689600 -o json 2>/dev/null

Check status:

bash
kraken export-status --report trades -o json 2>/dev/null

Download when ready:

bash
kraken export-retrieve <REPORT_ID> -o json 2>/dev/null

Clean up after download:

bash
kraken export-delete <REPORT_ID> -o json 2>/dev/null

Ledger Export

Ledgers capture all account activity (trades, deposits, withdrawals, staking rewards, fees):

bash
kraken export-report --report ledgers --description "2024 full ledger" --format CSV --starttm 1704067200 --endtm 1735689600 -o json 2>/dev/null

JSON Trade History (Alternative)

For smaller date ranges, query directly:

bash
kraken trades-history --ledgers --consolidate-taker -o json 2>/dev/null

Filter by time:

bash
kraken closed-orders --start 1704067200 --end 1735689600 -o json 2>/dev/null

Futures History

Futures trades are exported separately:

bash
kraken futures history-executions --since 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z --before 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z --sort asc -o json 2>/dev/null

Futures account log (CSV):

bash
kraken futures history-account-log-csv --since 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z --before 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z -o json 2>/dev/null

Deposit and Withdrawal Records

Complete picture for tax reconciliation:

bash
kraken deposit status --start 1704067200 --end 1735689600 -o json 2>/dev/null
kraken withdrawal status --start 1704067200 --end 1735689600 -o json 2>/dev/null

Earn/Staking Rewards

Staking rewards appear as ledger entries of type staking:

bash
kraken ledgers --type staking --start 1704067200 --end 1735689600 -o json 2>/dev/null

Cost Basis Workflow

  1. Export all trades for the tax year (CSV).
  2. Import into tax software (Koinly, CoinTracker, etc.).
  3. Verify deposit/withdrawal records match exchange data.
  4. Cross-reference staking rewards from ledger entries.
  5. Generate tax report.

Hard Rules

  • Requesting and reading exports is read-only, but export-retrieve (writes to disk) and export-delete (irreversible) are flagged dangerous. Never delete a report without explicit human approval.
  • Verify export completeness by checking trade counts against trades-history totals.
  • Keep exports secure; they contain full trading history.
  • Futures and spot exports are separate; ensure both are included.
  • If you hit a mismatch between what you are trying to do and the CLI's interface or responses — including a mismatch between this skill and the installed CLI version's contract — feel free to submit feedback with kraken feedback.
