Question 1

Is Kage or Sequential Thinking better?

Accepted Answer

Sequential Thinking scores 93.0 and Kage scores 69.0 on the tashan score, which measures upkeep and freshness gated by real adoption. Neither number is a security audit and neither can be bought. The gap is wide enough to be decisive.

Question 2

Are Kage and Sequential Thinking safe to install?

Accepted Answer

Kage: no known advisories, no build provenance. Sequential Thinking: no known advisories. Every capability tashan measures is checked against the OSV advisory database at the version you would install today, for install-time scripts and for build provenance. The audit reads public evidence and never executes anything.

Question 3

How were these two compared?

Accepted Answer

Both were measured on the same day by the same scorer, from public signal only — npm download volume and publish cadence, repository activity, maintainer count and registry status. Nobody can pay to change a score, a rank or a listing.

	Kage	Sequential Thinking	what it means
tashan score	69	93	upkeep + freshness, gated by adoption
Adoption evidence	1k/wk	149k/wk	the raw public signal the score came from
Last release	active	active	npm publish or repo push
Upkeep	73	89	cadence, maintainers, status
Expertise grade	solid	not graded	an LLM read of its own documentation against a fixed rubric
Security audit	no known advisories, no build provenance	no known advisories	existence of findings is always free; the detail a licence buys is on each dossier
Licence	—	NOASSERTION
Maintainers	one primary	more than one	bus-factor risk
