  "markdown": "Paseo scores 62.1 (B) on agent readiness against Conductor's 41.3 (E), and leads in every scored category. Both do agent harnesses.\n\n- Conductor: grade E, 41.3/100, rank #1285 of 1486. Markdown https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/conductor.md · JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/tools/conductor.json\n- Paseo: grade B, 62.1/100, rank #575 of 1486. Markdown https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/paseo.md · JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/tools/paseo.json\n- Best agent harnesses and coding agents: https://www.anchorterminal.com/best/agent-harnesses/index.md\n- All 1500 harnesses comparisons: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/agent-harnesses/index.md\n\n## Which one, for what\n\n### Conductor (E)\n\nGood for: Existing Conductor users planning their move before Cloud closes on 20 November 2026 and the local app winds down in early 2027.\n\nWatch for: No new downloads or sign-ups since 4 November 2026\n\n### Paseo (B)\n\nGood for: Developers who want parallel coding agents on their own machines with no telemetry, reachable from anywhere.\n\nAhead on:\n- Reliability, 50 against 25\n- Schema \u0026 documentation, 65 against 60\n- Agent ergonomics, 70 against 55\n- Security \u0026 auth, 58 against 45\n- Payments \u0026 pricing, 60 against 0\n- Maintenance \u0026 community, 75 against 58\n- Transparency \u0026 trust, 68 against 53\n\nAlso in its favour:\n- No key needed to call it\n- Open source\n\nWatch for: Pre-1.0, at 0.15.3\n\n\n## Why the edge\n\n### Payments \u0026 pricing: Paseo +60\n\n- Conductor (0): No new sign-ups since 4 November, free users can't upgrade, and no price is shown. No protocol, no published price, no open free tier, no onboarding (0).\n- Paseo (60): Free self-hosted software with nothing to buy, so 0 for a protocol and 20 each for public pricing, a free tier and onboarding with no sign-up, 60.\n\n### Reliability: Paseo +25\n\n- Conductor (25): Read as local software that is winding down. Installed from Conductor's own download, which stopped taking new users on 4 November 2026 (10). Closed source, so no public CI or issue tracker (0, 0). A dated changelog, newest 0.93.0 on 4 November (15). Version 0.93 (0). 10 + 0 + 0 + 15 + 0 = 25.\n- Paseo (50): Local software. Desktop builds, an Android APK, a Docker image and a Nix package (20). ci.yml on the repository; pass state not read (15). GitHub issues and pull requests weren't read (GitHub's pages refuse these sessions), so that line is scored absent (0). CHANGELOG.md (15). Version 0.15.3 (0). 20 + 15 + 0 + 15 + 0 = 50.\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: Paseo +17\n\n- Conductor (58): 0.93.0 on 4 November 2026 (30). Several dated releases in 90 days, per the changelog index (20). Discord, a subreddit and email for support (8). Closed app, no package or CI to read (0). 30 + 20 + 8 + 0 + 0 = 58. The local app gets new models and critical fixes only until early 2027.\n- Paseo (75): v0.15.3 and commits on 7 November 2026 (30). More than three releases in 90 days (20). GitHub issues and pull requests weren't read (GitHub's pages refuse these sessions), so that line is scored absent (0). Current builds (15). CI on push (10). 30 + 20 + 0 + 15 + 10 = 75.\n\n### Agent ergonomics: Paseo +15\n\n- Conductor (55): Harness reading. Each task gets a workspace, branch, terminal and diff, with pull requests and merges from the app, and an API for integrations; not re-read in detail (55).\n- Paseo (70): Harness reading. A self-hosted daemon that agents can use to create worktrees, launch other agents and talk to them, scriptable from the CLI (70).\n\n### Transparency \u0026 trust: Paseo +15\n\n- Conductor (53): Closed service with terms and privacy pages (15). The transition notice says when Cloud data deletion begins (20 November) and that all user data is deleted when the app shuts down in early 2027 (20 of 30). Dated shutdown notice (15 of 20). SOC 2 report on a trust portal, subprocessors not read (10 of 20). 15 + 20 + 15 + 10 = 60.\n- Paseo (68): Apache 2.0 for everything but third-party components (30). No telemetry and agents run on your machine (22 of 30). CHANGELOG.md, no deprecation policy (10). States no telemetry (20). 30 + 22 + 10 + 20 = 82.\n\n### Security \u0026 auth: Paseo +13\n\n- Conductor (45): Closed app. Telemetry and data handling weren't read beyond the transition notice (10 of 30). A security and permissions page (10 of 20). No prompt-injection guidance found (5). No audit log found (5). SOC 2 Type II report at trust.conductor.build (15 of 20). 10 + 10 + 5 + 5 + 15 = 45.\n- Paseo (58): Harness reading. The README says no telemetry, tracking or forced log-ins (30 of 30). Worktree per agent, on your own machine (10 of 20). No prompt-injection guidance (5). No audit log (5). SECURITY.md (8). 30 + 10 + 5 + 5 + 8 = 58.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Conductor | Paseo | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 25 | 50 | Paseo +25 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 60 | 65 | Paseo +5 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 55 | 70 | Paseo +15 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 45 | 58 | Paseo +13 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 0 | 60 | Paseo +60 |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 58 | 75 | Paseo +17 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 53 | 68 | Paseo +15 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **41.3 · E** | **62.1 · B** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Conductor | Paseo |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Agent harness | Agent harness |\n| Vendor | Conductor (joining Meta) | Mohamed Boudra |\n| Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | no (local only) |\n| Transports |  |  |\n| Auth | OAuth or key | None |\n| Pricing | Paid | Free |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | Proprietary.

It has taken no new users since 4 November 2026, Cloud turns read-only on 13 November and shuts down on 20 November, and the local app winds down in early 2027, when all user data is deleted.\n\n**Paseo.** A self-hosted, open-source workspace for running many coding agents on your own machines, scriptable from the CLI and reachable from phone, web or desktop, with no telemetry or forced log-in. It's pre-1.0 and run largely by one maintainer.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Conductor\n\n1. Export your data from Settings, Account, Export data before 20 November 2026\n2. Move Cloud workspaces to your Mac with Transfer to local before 13 November\n3. Plan a move off the local app before early 2027; see the agent-harnesses category for alternatives\n\n### Paseo\n\n1. Run the daemon on the machine that has your tools and credentials, and connect from the clients\n2. Script runs from the CLI for repeatable agent jobs\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Conductor or Paseo?\n\nPaseo scores 62.1 (B) on agent readiness against Conductor's 41.3 (E), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Are Conductor and Paseo open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Conductor. Paseo is open source (Apache-2.0).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/conductor-vs-paseo.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/conductor-vs-paseo.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"conductor\", \"b\": \"paseo\"}`.
