Head-to-head claims from both packs
Each row is attributed to the pack that authored it. The winner column is normalised to this compare view (A / B / Tie).
| Source | Alternative | Axis | Winner | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | four-design-questions | complexity | Alternative | Four-design-questions is the 2-minute orientation; this pack is the 20-minute architect's framework. Start there, graduate here. Winner: four-design-questions for speed; this pack for depth. |
| A | pattern-decision-tree | maintainability | Alternative | Pattern-decision-tree walks canonical workflow patterns (prompt-chaining / routing / evaluator-optimizer etc.). This pack walks harness-level design choices. Pattern-decision-tree maintains better because it has a tighter, more testable output; this pack maintains best when paired with enforceable PR review. |
| B | agent-design-space-six-decisions | complexity | B | Four questions is the 2-minute orientation; six decisions is the 20-minute architect's framework. Start here, graduate there. |
| B | pattern-decision-tree | maintainability | Alternative | Pattern decision tree is broader — it picks between canonical workflow patterns. This pack is narrower — it frames harness-level design choices. Use pattern-decision-tree once you know your four answers. |
