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
context-kit
Cross-session memory for Claude Code projects: handoff note injected at session start, staleness warning, handoff / resume skills.
recall
Persistent conversation recall for Claude Code. Indexes every exchange into a local SQLite database so you can search, browse, and recover context at any time. Survives /clear commands and context compaction. Search across all sessions in a project or globally across every project. Auto-tags technical terms for discovery. Shares findings between parallel sessions via opt-in highlight connections. Includes a PostCompact nudge that automatically re-orients Claude after context loss. Optional proactive skill teaches Claude to detect context loss and suggest recall commands. Zero external dependencies, pure Python stdlib with FTS5 full-text search and WAL mode for concurrent session safety.
