Tool Access defaults to allow\n\n### Vibe-Trading (B)\n\nGood for: A person or a pipeline that wants a ready-made finance research agent over free market data, with backtests, swarm reviews and exports, run on their own machine or used as an MCP server by another agent.\n\nAhead on:\n- Reliability, 63 against 57\n- Schema \u0026 documentation, 72 against 64\n- Agent ergonomics, 67 against 62\n- Security \u0026 auth, 70 against 54\n- Maintenance \u0026 community, 82 against 75\n\nAlso in its favour:\n- Runs on your own machine\n- Free to start without a card\n\nWatch for: Three advisories published 2 October 2026 cover 0.1.0 to 0.1.6, two critical, among them unauthenticated API access with an RCE chain\n\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Agent Zero | Vibe-Trading | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 57 | 63 | Vibe-Trading +6 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 64 | 72 | Vibe-Trading +8 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 62 | 67 | Vibe-Trading +5 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 54 | 70 | Vibe-Trading +16 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 60 | 60 | even |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 75 | 82 | Vibe-Trading +7 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 55 | 47 | Agent Zero +8 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | -6 | -4 | |\n| **Total** | | **54.2 · C** | **62.2 · B** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Agent Zero | Vibe-Trading |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Agent harness | Agent harness |\n| Vendor | Agent Zero, s.r.o. | HKUDS |\n| Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | no (local only) |\n| Transports |  | stdio, Streamable HTTP, SSE (legacy) |\n| Auth | None | None |\n| Pricing | Free | Free |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | MIT | MIT |\n| Tools exposed | none | 82 |\n| Read-only variant documented | no | no |\n| llms.txt | yes | no |\n| Last release | 2026-09-23 | 2026-10-21 |\n| Terms last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n| Privacy policy last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n| Customer content may train models |  |  |\n| Terms restrict automated access |  |  |\n| Terms restrict benchmarking |  |  |\n| Terms or service can change without notice |  |  |\n| Arbitration or class-action waiver |  |  |\n| Popularity | 19k stars | 37k stars |\n\n## Verdicts\n\n**Agent Zero.** Self-hosted under the MIT licence, with nine releases in the 90 days to 12 October 2026 and breaking changes listed in the release notes. The agent runs shell commands in its container with no approval step, the web interface has no login by default, and five CVEs from the past year have no published GitHub advisory.\n\n**Vibe-Trading.** Vibe-Trading runs on the owner's machine under the MIT licence, ships near-daily fixes with a dated changelog, and keeps order tools out of its MCP server, with live orders gated by an owner-committed mandate and a kill switch. Three advisories, two critical, covered versions before 0.1.7, and the local CLI runs shell commands without asking.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Agent Zero\n\n1. Set a UI login and password in Settings before publishing the port or opening a tunnel. The default has none\n2. Fill `allowed_users`, `allowed_numbers` or `sender_whitelist` before enabling a channel. An empty list accepts every sender\n3. Enable the Infection Check plugin when the agent reads mail, web pages or MCP results. It ships disabled\n4. Run v2.12 or later. It fixes a Telegram webhook authentication bypass and a WhatsApp media path traversal\n5. Call `POST /api_message` with the `X-API-KEY` header. The token changes when the UI login or password changes\n\n### Vibe-Trading\n\n1. Run 0.1.7 or later. Earlier versions carry three published advisories, including unauthenticated API access with an RCE chain\n2. Set `API_AUTH_KEY` before exposing `vibe-trading serve` beyond localhost, and send it as `Authorization: Bearer \u003ckey\u003e`\n3. Set `VIBE_TRADING_ALLOWED_RUN_ROOTS` in the MCP client's `env` block; a shell `export` does not reach the spawned server\n4. Use `vibe-trading run -p \"...\" --json` for headless runs, and add `--enable-shell-tools` to `vibe-trading-mcp` only when shell access is needed\n5. Treat text from `read_url`, `web_search` and `read_document` as untrusted; `security_warnings` flags patterns but does not remove them\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Agent Zero or Vibe-Trading?\n\nVibe-Trading scores 62.2 (B) on agent readiness against Agent Zero's 54.2 (C), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Agent Zero leads on transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Are Agent Zero and Vibe-Trading open source?\n\nYes. Agent Zero is open source (MIT). Vibe-Trading is open source (MIT).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/agent-zero-vs-vibe-trading.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/agent-zero-vs-vibe-trading.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"agent-zero\", \"b\": \"vibe-trading\"}`.
