Compare agentic tools by peer group

Same peer group comparisons remain the default. Cross-peer-group comparisons switch to caveat mode and focus on workflow fit, adoption tradeoffs, source confidence, and evaluation questions.

These tools belong to different peer groups. Use cross-category comparison to understand workflow fit, source confidence, and high-change adoption caveats — not to declare a universal winner.
