Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | AgentOS | OpenMozi | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 5.5 | 6.0 | OpenMozi — Pick this if you want to set the blast radius before the first token; pick a terminal agent if choosing a branch and a permission level up front feels like ceremony. |
| El Crítico | 5.3 | 5.3 | no preference |
| El Profesor | 6.3 | 6.8 | OpenMozi — Every claimed deliverable is checked against the filesystem before completion is reported, which converts the most common failure in this category into a detectable one. |
| La Inversora | 5.0 | 5.0 | no preference |
| La Jefa | 5.0 | 4.8 | AgentOS — Zero per seat across sixty desks, a signed receipt for every action, and no console, no SSO and nothing that runs unattended. |
| El Hacker | 6.0 | 5.5 | AgentOS — Apache-2.0 and my own key is the good half; MCP is absent on both ends and the weights have to live on somebody else's endpoint. |
Picks are derived from each critic's own scores. Humans vote on matchups on the duels page.
