Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.

indian-mact-drafting
For every advocate practising before India's Motor Accident Claims Tribunals — the tribunal-tier where every road accident in India ultimately lands for compensation — and before the High Court on Section 173 appeals and the Magistrate's Court on the rash / negligent-driving trial under BNSS 2023, this open-source Claude Code plugin standardises the full motor-accident litigation surface. Case-config and state-config-aware: forum (MACT of the territorial district, High Court for Section 173 appeal, Magistrate Court for the rash / negligent-driving prosecution, Collector for Section 174 recovery), accident-trigger date, claimant composition (legal representatives of the deceased / injured claimant / property-damage claimant), vehicle particulars, FIR particulars, insurer particulars, Sarla Verma + Pranay Sethi multiplier inputs, and State Motor Vehicles Rules variations are user-supplied. Battle-tested for Section 166 fault-based claims, Section 164 lump-sum claims (post-2019 amendment, replacing Section 163A)
