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
AitherOS ADK
Agent runtime with typed memory, knowledge and code graphs, plus file and web tools
NEAT
A live graph of your running system, code fused with OTel runtime, that your agent queries over MCP.
How to run each
AitherOS ADK As a local MCP server: PyPI package
claude mcp add --env "AITHERIUM_API_KEY=<YOUR_AITHERIUM_API_KEY>" --transport stdio aither-adk -- uvx aither-adkRequires: AITHERIUM_API_KEY (secret)
NEAT As a local MCP server: npm package
claude mcp add --transport stdio neat -- npx -y @neat.is/mcpCommands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.
Tools each declares
Neither one's marketplaces publish a list of tools, so there is nothing to compare.
Settings each asks for
Only AitherOS ADK asks for
AITHERIDENTITY_URLAITHERIUM_API_KEY (secret)
Only NEAT asks for
NEAT_CORE_URL
Settings as each marketplace publishes them. Asking for fewer is not better in itself.
