LLC / Company Formation

The user provided: $ARGUMENTS

Parse $ARGUMENTS into:

• country — English name or ISO-3166 alpha-2/alpha-3 (e.g. US, USA, AE, EST).
• entity_type (optional) — if the user says "LLC", "llc"; otherwise omit or pass their wording (e.g. corporation, ibc, free_zone).

Live data (preferred)

If the Polystate MCP server is connected (/mcp shows polystate), call the MCP tool get_company_formation with:

{ "country": "<ISO2 or ISO3>", "entity_type": "<optional filter>" }

• Use ISO codes as returned from your geography knowledge or by mapping from the country name.
• If the user asked specifically for LLCs, set "entity_type": "llc".
• Present the JSON result in clear Markdown: program name, entity type, min investment, annual cost, time to formation, requirements, benefits, tax implications, sources, confidence.

If MCP returns empty formations[], say so and suggest checking spelling or another entity type.

Offline fallback

If MCP is not available or the call fails, read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/data/company-formation.json (array of objects). Each object has these fields:

• country — e.g. "United States - Wyoming LLC" or "Estonia - OÜ" (includes jurisdiction + entity variant)
• entityType — e.g. "llc", "corporation", "free_zone", "ibc"
• minInvestment — startup cost
• annualCost — yearly maintenance
• timeToFormation — e.g. "1-3 business days"
• requirements — array of strings
• benefits — array of strings
• taxImplications — string
• sources — array of URLs
• lastVerified — ISO date
• confidence — "high" / "medium" / "low"

Match rows where the country field contains the user's country name (case-insensitive substring) AND entityType matches if the user specified one. This file mirrors the MCP catalog; it may be older than live MCP.
