cog_find_peers selects peers from canonical_fips_xwalk by same-type,
same-state, and population-range (ratio or absolute) criteria,
ordered by |log(pop_ratio)| ascending.
cog_peer_compare accepts the find_peers result (or a plain character
vector of govids), pulls spending for target + peers via cog_spending,
and appends summary rows (summary_p25/p50/p75) so the whole result
can be faceted by `role` in a single ggplot call. Summary rows honor
per_capita + adjust_to_year by picking the right value column.
target_rank reports the target's rank among target+peers at max(years).
Provenance is rewritten with verb = cog_peer_compare and peer_count.
Also: globalVariables('.data') in zzz.R to silence R CMD check on
tidy-eval pronouns.

uscogdata
Curated R reader for the Civilytics US Census of Governments finance corpus.

Status
Under active development (Phase 2 of the cog_pipeline project). See
../cog_pipeline/docs/reader-specification.md for the reader contract this
package implements.
