Tier 2 orchestrator skill that assembles the complete federal income tax return package for US freelance software developers filing as sole proprietors or single-member LLCs disregarded for federal tax. Sequences the upstream content skills (bookkeeping, SE computation, retirement, SE health insurance, QBI, estimated tax) in dependency order, resolves circular computations between SE health insurance and retirement contributions, produces Form 1040 with all required schedules (Schedule 1, Schedule 2, Schedule 3, Schedule C, Schedule SE, Schedule D if needed, Form 8829, Form 4562, Form 8995 or 8995-A, Form 8962 if marketplace coverage, Form 2210 if penalty, Form 7206), performs cross-form reconciliation checks, and produces the final reviewer package.
