Forward-looking movement triggers
Every score ships with a written-down answer: what would move this tool up, and what would move it down. Not 'watch for changes' — specific, falsifiable thresholds.

A decision instrument for the agentic developer tools landscape.
Six-dimension, evidence-graded scoring of agentic developer tools. We publish a written movement trigger for every score, so readers know what would move a tool up or down before it happens. Refreshed weekly, with caps and rationale public, and willing to flag negative signals that vendor-curated landscapes will not.

This isn't a tech radar.
Most landscapes show you what exists. We show you what is shifting and what would shift it next. Three primitives keep the radar from drifting into commodity territory.
Caps as policy primitives
Eighteen named, numbered caps mechanically bound dimension scores. When governance is capped at 12, the cap ID is listed and the rule is public. Auditable, not hand-wavy.
Evidence is graded
Every tool carries an Evidence Grade (A/B/C) reflecting hands-on vs. research depth. Vendor-only benchmarks get labeled. The grade tells you how much weight to put on the call.
