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
c4m
Interactive C4 architecture diagrams (Simon Brown's model) for Claude Code. Five mode-driven workflows — Design (greenfield), Document-code (retro-doc from a repo), Document-prose (from README/ADR/spec), Review (critique an existing diagram), Update (evolve one) — accessed via /c4m:auto, /c4m:design, /c4m:code, /c4m:prose, /c4m:review, /c4m:update. Output is one Markdown document per C4 level with embedded Mermaid; format negotiable (Structurizr DSL, PlantUML) and destination negotiable (filesystem or MCP — Notion, Linear, Drive). Enforces the editorial invariants: technology mandatory on every Container/Component, intent-specific relationship labels, protocol on inter-container links, assumptions kept explicit.
figma
Figma design platform integration. Access design files, extract component information, read design tokens, and translate designs into code. Bridge the gap between design and development workflows.
