Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Easy LLM CLI | YunmengZe Agent | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 6.8 | 6.3 | Easy LLM CLI — Pick it if you already know the Gemini CLI workflow and want a different model behind it; stay on the original if Gemini was the model you wanted anyway. |
| El Crítico | 5.8 | 5.8 | no preference |
| El Profesor | 6.0 | 7.0 | YunmengZe Agent — Compile errors, failing tests and non-zero exits are returned as structured observations instead of terminating the turn, which makes failure an input to the loop rather than the end of it. |
| La Inversora | 5.8 | 5.0 | Easy LLM CLI — A one-maintainer fork of something a very large company ships for free: 1,320 stars is real demand, and not one point of it can be charged for. |
| La Jefa | 5.3 | 5.8 | YunmengZe Agent — File writes and processes pass through a policy, grant, path-limit and audit gate, and there is no mode that turns it off. That sentence is worth more to me than the feature list. |
| El Hacker | 7.3 | 6.8 | Easy LLM CLI — Four environment variables and the backend is mine: CUSTOM_LLM_ENDPOINT takes a local vLLM server as happily as a hosted API, and the licence is permissive. |
