Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Flue | Neuron AI | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 7.8 | 7.8 | no preference |
| El Crítico | 7.5 | 6.8 | Flue — Flue provides a declarative TypeScript harness for teams building durable, tool-using agents across local and serverless runtimes. |
| El Profesor | 6.5 | 6.8 | Neuron AI — The design is a careful port of settled patterns rather than a new proposal, and the breadth is the risk: every subsystem is somebody else's specialty. |
| La Inversora | 8.3 | 7.0 | Flue — Adopt Flue for TypeScript agent orchestration if you want solid framework ergonomics without vendor lock-in. |
| La Jefa | 6.8 | 7.0 | Neuron AI — This is a package my engineers add to an application we already govern, so identity, logging and retention are inherited rather than purchased. |
| El Hacker | 7.0 | 8.0 | Neuron AI — MIT, one Composer requirement, MCP servers attach and Ollama is a shipped interface, so the whole loop can run on a box with no outbound access. |
