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.

Neither one's marketplaces publish a list of tools, so there is nothing to compare.
Settings each asks for

GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN (secret)
Only github-twin asks for
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (secret)GEMINI_API_KEY (secret)GITHUB_TOKEN (secret)GT_PATHS__DATA_DIR
