ai-coding-agent-open-source-analysis

A comparative research repository on AI coding agents, full-source scanning, spec-driven development, and LLM wiki/RAG trends, with analysis reports, category READMEs, CSV tables, and a data/source-inventory.json cataloging the analyzed agents. Useful as the index that cross-references the Tier 4 agents.
