Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Oh My Pi | pi | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 7.5 | 7.5 | no preference |
| El Crítico | 6.0 | 6.8 | pi — Extensions are TypeScript modules loaded into the agent's own process, so a package is a supply chain, and the install line already says --ignore-scripts. |
| El Profesor | 7.0 | 7.3 | pi — A unified LLM API, an agent loop, a TUI and a CLI in one monorepo; sessions branch into a tree with compaction that summarises abandoned branches; no benchmark is published. |
| La Inversora | 5.8 | 5.5 | Oh My Pi — Stencil Labs, a fork of Mario Zechner's Pi, routes work through Cursor, Copilot and Devin subscriptions, and the founder's post notes a vendor cutting off a rival harness; platform risk is the story. |
| La Jefa | 6.0 | 5.5 | Oh My Pi — Free, no SSO or audit log, a /collab command that hands out a link and a QR code so anyone can watch a session, and Nix and Home Manager modules that would let us pin sixty identical installs. |
| El Hacker | 8.3 | 8.5 | pi — MIT TypeScript, extensions that add tools, commands and UI, /llama for llama.cpp on my box, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY in the environment, and packages to share it all. |
