Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | no_human | Roomote | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 6.5 | 7.0 | Roomote — Pick this if you want agent work to arrive as an ordinary pull request; pick a supervised terminal agent if you would rather watch the work than review the result. |
| El Crítico | 5.5 | 5.8 | Roomote — A task starts from a chat message, and the row describes no model of who is permitted to send one or which repositories a given sender may target. |
| El Profesor | 6.8 | 7.3 | Roomote — The loop is clone into an isolated environment, write, run the tests, capture a screenshot, then open the pull request, which is an evidence chain rather than an assertion. |
| La Inversora | 6.0 | 7.0 | Roomote — The Roo Code team already own a large extension audience, and shipping both a self-hosted build and a managed cloud is the textbook route from that audience to revenue. |
| La Jefa | 5.3 | 6.5 | Roomote — No seat cost if we host it, and it already speaks to Linear, Jira, Sentry and Notion, which means it enters the workflow my sixty engineers are already in. |
| El Hacker | 7.3 | 6.8 | no_human — It ships an MCP stdio server on the official Python SDK, so my existing agent files a task with task_add and gets the whole loop behind it. |
