Build one self-contained HTML page that sets two or more states of the same mechanism side by side at full identifier-level detail.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

Produce ONE self-contained HTML file (Mermaid via CDN) and deliver it rendered in the side panel
(`SendUserFile` with `display: render`; where that tool is absent, name the path). Put it beside the
session's other docs written for the user.

Three regions, left to right:

1. **Shared** — spans every row, split into two panels of its own. Left: the problem in three
   sentences, then a table of every object the diagrams name. Right: a glossary of every label,
   grouped tables · functions · columns · arguments, one plain sentence each.
2. **Diagrams** — one Mermaid diagram per state, stacked. The same boxes and the same layer count in
   every one, so they overlay.
3. **Reading** — one panel per diagram, in the same grid row so the tops align: the state's name, a
   numbered list that walks the arrows, and one coloured verdict box.

Rules:

- Read the code that produces each box before drawing it. A doc's description is not a source. Every
  line number comes from a file opened this session.
- Real identifiers inside a diagram — table, id argument, columns. Plain words live in the glossary
  and the reading. Never paraphrase inside a box.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add federbenjamin/feder-skills/compare-states@sha256:86b296e6ffb856b6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.87f312a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
