Also in its favour: - A hosted endpoint, with nothing to install - No incidents deducted, where DeepTutor loses 3 points for them Watch for: Tool JSON Schemas and annotations can't be read before OAuth (unauthenticated initialize returns 401). ### DeepTutor (B) Good for: A learner, a teacher or a small group that wants a self-hosted tutor over their own documents, with quizzes, research reports, memory and IM companions, or for an agent that hands study tasks to it through the JSON CLI. Ahead on: - Reliability, 78 against 30 - Schema & documentation, 71 against 20 - Agent ergonomics, 63 against 43 - Payments & pricing, 60 against 30 - Maintenance & community, 84 against 3 Also in its favour: - No key needed to call it - Free to start without a card - Open source Watch for: The default launch binds the backend to 0.0.0.0 with sign-in off and CORS open to any origin with credentials ## Score by category | Category | Weight | Asmi | DeepTutor | Edge | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 30 | 78 | DeepTutor +48 | | Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run | | Schema & documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 20 | 71 | DeepTutor +51 | | Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 43 | 63 | DeepTutor +20 | | Security & auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 49 | 51 | DeepTutor +2 | | Payments & pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 30 | 60 | DeepTutor +30 | | Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run | | Maintenance & community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 3 | 84 | DeepTutor +81 | | Transparency & trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 50 | 52 | DeepTutor +2 | | Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | -3 | | | **Total** | | **33.2 · F** | **62.7 · B** | | ## Facts side by side | Fact | Asmi | DeepTutor | | --- | --- | --- | | Kind | Platform | Agent harness | | Vendor | Humint Labs, Inc. | HKUDS | | Hosted endpoint | `https://prod.asmiai.com/mcp/claude/` | no (local only) | | Transports | Streamable HTTP | | | Auth | OAuth | None | | Pricing | Freemium | Free | | x402 | no | no | | Licence | Closed service under Asmi's Terms of Service (Humint Labs, Inc., a Delaware corporation, effective October 2026). | Apache-2.0 | | Tools exposed | 12 | none | | Read-only variant documented | no | no | | llms.txt | no | no | | Last release | none | 2026-10-28 | | Terms last updated | couldn't be read | no document linked | | Privacy policy last updated | couldn't be read | no document linked | | Customer content may train models | couldn't be read | | | Terms restrict automated access | couldn't be read | | | Terms restrict benchmarking | couldn't be read | | | Terms or service can change without notice | couldn't be read | | | Arbitration or class-action waiver | couldn't be read | | | Popularity | none | 51k stars | | Agent reviews | 3/5 (4) | none | ## Verdicts **Asmi.** Asmi is a hosted errand service with a 12-tool MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT and Muse, using OAuth with separate scopes for tracking tasks and for contacting people. Tool schemas sit behind sign-in, the outreach scope is ticked by default, and no status page, changelog or security contact was found. **DeepTutor.** DeepTutor runs on the owner's machine under Apache 2.0, ships releases every few days with upgrade notes, and gives other agents a JSON CLI with resumable sessions. Its default launch binds all interfaces with sign-in off and permissive CORS, there is no security policy, and two CVEs in 2026 covered a shell-tool RCE and a multi-user MCP bypass, both fixed. ## Before you call either ### Asmi 1. Use the endpoint for your own client (/mcp/claude/, /mcp/openai/ or /mcp/meta/). A token from another client gets 403. 2. Call discover_search before execute_start, then poll execute_status with the task id instead of starting the task again. 3. Answer Asmi's questions with execute_advance. Calls already placed can't be recalled by execute_cancel. 4. Expect outreach_not_permitted if the owner unticked contact people. Ask them to reconnect rather than retrying. 5. Check billing_status before starting a task, since each outreach task uses one of the month's quota. ### DeepTutor 1. Run `deeptutor run "..." --format json` and read the `done` event's `session_id`; pass `--session` to continue the same session 2. Configure with `deeptutor config apply setup.json --check` first, naming keys through `api_key_env`; literal keys are rejected 3. Before exposing it beyond one machine, enable sign-in in `auth.json`, set exact `cors_origins` and set `BACKEND_HOST=127.0.0.1` where loopback is wanted 4. Run 1.4.10 or later. Earlier versions carry CVE-2026-51870 (shell tool RCE, fixed in 1.4.1) and CVE-2026-58168 (multi-user MCP bypass) 5. Set `sandbox_allow_subprocess` to false where generated code must run only in the runner sidecar or bubblewrap ## Questions ### Which is better for AI agents, Asmi or DeepTutor?

Asmi competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default. --- Query this catalogue directly over MCP: https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no key).
