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
aws-agents
Build, deploy, and operate AI agents on AWS. Skills for scaffolding agents with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, connecting tools, memory, policies, evaluation, debugging, and production hardening.
any-subagent
Runs other coding-agent CLIs (Codex, opencode, Pi, Antigravity, another Claude Code) as background subagents through one agent-send command. Each delegated conversation has a name, so a follow-up resumes the same backend session with its context. Roles map to backends in user config, and each agent logs its spec and notes to a per-session file. One bash script and a skill; no hooks, no MCP servers.
