Subject: <citation or act_id, or a topic and a list of states>.\n---\n\nCompare across states whichever subject the conversation is about. If it is not clear from the conversation, ask for it before calling anything.\n\nTwo routes. Pick by what you were given.\n\n**Given one provision** (a citation or `act_id`):\n\n1. Resolve it to an `act_id` if needed (`resolve_statute_citation`, 2 credits).\n2. Call `get_section_cross_state` (6 credits). It returns at most one provision per state, most similar first.\n3. Fetch the body of each hit worth reporting.\n\n**Given a topic and a list of states:**\n\n1. Call `search_us_statutes` once with `state` as a **list**, for example `[\"ca\",\"ny\",\"tx\"]`. One call, not one per state.\n2. Take the best hit per state, then fetch bodies.\n\nEither way, verify before you compare. `similarity` is a retrieval score, not a legal opinion: a high score means two provisions cover the same ground, never that they impose the same obligation, and the differences are usually the entire point of the question.\n\nReport as a table, one row per state: citation, the operative requirement in a short phrase, and `goodLawStatus`.\n\nThen, below the table, write the part that matters:\n\n- **Where they actually differ.** Thresholds, deadlines, who is covered, what triggers the duty, what the remedy is.\n- **Any state that did not come back**, and which of the two reasons applies. Fewer states than requested means the rest did not clear the similarity floor, not that they are missing from the corpus. Check `list_statutes_coverage` (free) before saying a state has no such law.\n- **Any state whose `goodLawStatus` is not `good_law`**, called out rather than folded into the table.\n\nDo not present the comparison as legal advice about which state is stricter. Present what each text says and let the differences speak.\n"
