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
skillers
Learn from your workflow patterns and suggest skills, hooks, and agents to automate the repetitive work. Skillers reads your AI conversation transcripts (Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode), extracts recurring patterns into themed weighted-knowledge files, then recommends concrete skills/hooks/agents to codify them. Two phases: `/skillers compact` analyzes transcripts and writes `.skillers/<theme>.md` knowledge files; `/skillers recommend` reads accumulated knowledge plus your existing plugin/skill ecosystem and suggests automations that don't already exist. The output is "here are 4 patterns I see you doing manually every week and the exact SKILL.md / hooks.json that would automate each."
