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
Engineering
Streamline engineering workflows — standups, code review, architecture decisions, incident response, and technical documentation. Works with your existing tools or standalone.
genesis-governance-claude
Genesis Governance turns a Claude Code project into a governed project. Instead of dropping generic templates, it derives a constitution, governance config, CLAUDE.md, document registry, CI checks, first audit, and specialized agents from a structured 5-layer intake. It works for new projects and brownfield repos, supports checkpoint resume, and includes drift detection through /genesis-sync.
