Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | ccteam | Claw Orchestrator | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 6.8 | 6.8 | no preference |
| El Crítico | 5.5 | 5.8 | Claw Orchestrator — It exposes a seventy-seven tool API, which is a surface one maintainer has to keep correct while the CLIs underneath it change on schedules he does not set. |
| El Profesor | 6.8 | 6.5 | ccteam — Every delegation is recorded as a traceable parent-to-child edge on a live topology, which makes the provenance of a change a queryable structure rather than an inference. |
| La Inversora | 5.8 | 5.8 | no preference |
| La Jefa | 6.3 | 6.3 | no preference |
| El Hacker | 7.3 | 7.5 | Claw Orchestrator — MIT, and the same API answers over MCP, through the OpenClaw gateway, from the CLI or straight from TypeScript, so I reach it from whichever side I happen to be on. |
Picks are derived from each critic's own scores. Humans vote on matchups on the duels page.
