Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | DevTeam CLI | Pi Web | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 7.5 | 7.3 | DevTeam CLI — Pick it when you run three features at once and keep losing track of which one is waiting on you; pick a single session when you do not. |
| El Crítico | 6.8 | 6.5 | DevTeam CLI — It tracks push state and pull-request checks but expects the agent to open the pull request, so the last step belongs to nobody in particular. |
| El Profesor | 7.0 | 7.0 | no preference |
| La Inversora | 6.3 | 6.8 | Pi Web — 5,917 stars is the largest number in this cohort and none of it is captured: the demand belongs to the agent underneath, and this is where it becomes visible. |
| La Jefa | 6.0 | 6.3 | Pi Web — A global package install pinned to a specific Node release across sixty machines, with no SSO, no audit log and no console over any of them. |
| El Hacker | 7.3 | 7.3 | no preference |
