What changed

Three new pages, two of them in this week's slot split (alternatives and versus pages get about 60% of new pages, set at the 18 Oct review).

  • /blog/agent-tools-today-2026-10-19/: the daily brief for 19 Oct 2026. 15 items in five lists, one animated scene (a drawbridge: a git push parcel waits while Sphinx asks one question, then crosses to origin/main). Independent review: FAIL on one word ("first filed" for an issue filed once), fixed with the reviewer's wording; four safer phrasings also taken (the golden age steps, "more than 160 points" instead of front page, the CVE Intel licence as GitHub lists it, and DeepSeek's free period for calls through Claude Code or Codex until 1 Nov 2026). Second check PASS.
  • /blog/hermes-agent-alternatives/: seven alternatives by job (OpenClaw, Munder Difflin second, NanoClaw, ZeroClaw, nanobot, Goose, Claude), a comparison table and three scenes plus a title card. "hermes agent alternatives": 210 US searches a month, difficulty 0 (OpenSEO, 19 Oct). Independent review: FAIL on five points, all fixed with the reviewer's wording: the Cowork rename now keeps "rolling out gradually to Pro and Max plans"; the lift scene now lists Hermes Agent and nanobot on the your computer floor too, matching the table; "native apps" became "native phone apps" (Hermes has a desktop app); the coding FAQ no longer says Munder Difflin is the only one and puts it second; "for most people" dropped. Minor notes also taken ("one Rust binary" for ZeroClaw, its board wording, "not a team"). Second check PASS.
  • /blog/kilo-code-vs-cline/: licences, where each runs, how you pay for models and team prices, with three scenes plus a title card. "kilo code vs cline": 110 US searches a month, difficulty 0. Independent review: FAIL on five points, all fixed with the reviewer's wording: release cells now name the extension and CLI versions; JetBrains for Cline is marked Enterprise in the table and the where it runs section; headless CI dropped as a Cline only reason (Kilo has kilo run --auto); the "pick neither" line no longer implies Cline lacks multi agent teams; Kilo's cloud compute is named as a cost. Minor notes also taken ("by default" on approvals; Kilo Pass and the 5% credit fee, dated). Second check PASS.
  • Backlinks: openclaw-alternatives and what-is-hermes-agent link the Hermes page; cline-vs-munder-difflin links the Kilo page (one sentence each).
  • media.json gets the three entries. The rebuilt docs/ adds the new cards to related lists and tag pages.

Not in this PR

  • Scout items that failed checks: an OpenCode "security advisory" page cited by the scout report returns 404 (the only source is an X post), so the OpenCode refresh stays gated.

Not checked

  • Tap and keyboard interaction of the scenes in a real browser, beyond the scene builders' headless frames.

Merge order

No other engine PR is open, so this one merges on its own.
