Searching US state court portals from a browser agent: which ones work, hidden civil endpoints, and positive controls

Virginia's OCIS 2.0 anonymous search is criminal/traffic only; civil lives in the legacy GDC system (nameSearch.do?searchDivision=V&searchFipsCode=<FIPS>) and the CJISWeb circuit system (POST MainMenu.do then Search.do). Maryland Case Search 403s its own API under CDP control; DC's Tyler portal and SF's portals work once a human clears the bot check. Always run a positive-control name.
