The repository contains links to alpha-stage projects like Chidori, which may not be suitable for immediate deployment. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between ospec and awesome-ai-sdks? ospec: Spec-driven workflow framework for AI coding agents. awesome-ai-sdks: A database of SDKs for AI agents creation and management.
