One person maintains it, the local server has no authentication option, states over 32,768 tokens are cut without an error, and no security policy is published.\n\n**RightNow System Zero.** A well-documented decision API with an OpenAPI file, idempotent retries, a detailed error catalogue, streaming over WebSocket and published per-unit prices with USD 5 of starting credit. Standard context is 38,000 tokens; the 64k, 128k and 1M bands are held and video is a preview. The latency and benchmark figures are RightNow's own, and several of its pages disagree.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Decider\n\n1. Pin weights by Hub tag (`v10`, `v2`) when results must repeat. The `main` branch of each model repository changes with new versions\n2. Read `x_p_max` for the top probability. Since 1.3.0 `confidence` on choice and score answers follows TypeSafe's rescaled definition, not the top probability\n3. Keep the server on 127.0.0.1 or put an authenticating proxy in front. It has no key option\n4. Count state tokens before sending. Over 32,768 the state is cut silently, and `/decide` caps context at 1,536 tokens\n5. Split multi-step arithmetic or multi-hop judgements into several questions, and don't write long rules into a question. The README says both fail\n\n### RightNow System Zero\n\n1. Send audio only as inline 16,000 Hz WAV. The FLAC, MP3, OGG and MP4 audio named on the blog are refused with media_unsupported.\n2. Keep state under 38,000 tokens. Long-context requests return 404 long_context_not_available, which never succeeds on retry.\n3. Reuse the same Idempotency-Key and body on retries, and stop when error.retryable or x-should-retry is false.\n4. Check every entry in answers even on HTTP 200, since one question can be refused while the others are answered.\n5. Treat probabilities as uncalibrated while calibrated is false, and pin system-zero-2.0.0 when answers must not move with the alias.\n\n## Tutorials\n\n- [Classify a message locally with Decider](https://www.anchorterminal.com/tutorials/decider/), for Decider\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Decider or RightNow System Zero?\n\nDecider scores 70 (BB) on agent readiness against RightNow System Zero's 66.8 (B), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories.
