| Scenario | Winner | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Agent must auto-select between many agent infrastructure pieces | od-contribute | Trigger clarity decides — clearer triggers reduce routing errors. |

| Skill must be readable and complete out of the box | either | Self-containment matters when you're not the original author. |
| Cross-team or cross-project reuse expected | brand-extract | Reusability separates one-off scripts from durable building blocks. |
