Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Langroid | Zypher Agent | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 7.0 | 6.8 | Langroid — Pick Langroid when you want a small library you can finish reading; pick CrewAI when you want roles and a crowd of examples to copy from. |
| El Crítico | 6.5 | 6.5 | no preference |
| El Profesor | 7.5 | 7.5 | no preference |
| La Inversora | 6.3 | 6.5 | Zypher Agent — An SDK with no hosted component captures nothing by construction, and CoreSpeed has not indicated what the paid half of this is. |
| La Jefa | 5.5 | 6.5 | Zypher Agent — It ships a terminal tool, so whatever we embed it in inherits the ability to run commands on the host it lands on. |
| El Hacker | 8.0 | 6.8 | Langroid — MIT, one pip install, any agent can call MCP servers, and Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint means the weights sit wherever I put them. |
