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
ai-ready
Analyze any repository and generate AI-ready configuration — AGENTS.md, copilot-instructions.md, CI workflows, issue templates, and more. Mines your PR review patterns and creates files customized to your stack.
session-orchestrator
Session-level orchestration for Claude Code - structures development work into 5 typed waves (Discovery → Core → Polish → Quality → Finalization) with parallel subagent execution, inter-wave quality gates, and verified close-out. Auto-detects GitLab or GitHub from your git remote for full VCS lifecycle support. Three commands replace manual session management: /session starts with project analysis, /go executes the wave plan, /close verifies and commits.
