Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
JetBrains
A model context protocol server to work with JetBrains IDEs: IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc. Also, works with Android Studio.
clean-code-assistant
Enforces clean code principles across your project and fixes the code for you - not just flags what's wrong. Ships with 14 plain-language rules (formal textbook names in parentheses for experts), 13 skills, a background reviewer agent that appends non-blocking suggestions after every edit, and a plan-mode hook that reminds Claude to factor clean code into every plan. Every detection skill supports both report-only mode and a fix mode that applies the changes directly. Multi-platform: generates matching configs for Cursor (.cursorrules) and Codex CLI (AGENTS.md) from one source of truth. Based on Code Complete 2nd Ed., The Art of Clean Code, and OOP vs. Functional Programming.
