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.

What each says it does

indian-tax-drafting

In its own words, on Claude Code: claude-plugins-community:

For every direct-tax litigator and chartered-accountant counsel practising before India's tax appellate hierarchy — Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals), Income-tax Appellate Tribunal, High Court Tax Bench under Section 260A, the PCIT / CIT for registration and revision, and the Dispute Resolution Panel — this open-source Claude Code plugin standardises drafting under the Income-tax Act 1961. Case-config-aware: structural skeletons follow the statutory Form layouts (Form 35 under Rule 45, Form 36 under Rule 47, Form 10A under Rule 17A); the forum, assessment year, financial year, limitation anchor, assessment-order vintage (pre-Finance-Act-2021 reassessment regime vs Section 148A regime), faceless-vs-physical jurisdiction, and demand-notice / penalty-notice trajectory are user-supplied. Battle-tested for CIT(Appeals) Form 35 appeals under Section 246A, ITAT Form 36 appeals under Section 253, High Court appeals on substantial questions of law under Section 260A, Section 12A / 12AB charitable-trust registration

io.github.CsoftTarun/gstinapi-mcp
