astron-agent vs unlazy
astron-agent is much bigger: 8.9k stars against 3.1k. Over the days we have tracked them astron-agent moved +4.9% and unlazy +164.7%, so unlazy is growing faster right now.
They split the axes: astron-agent leads on model freedom, unlazy on context depth and noise control.
Stars and commit dates come from our own daily tracking. The six axes are read off each project's documentation by our review pipeline, so they describe what a project says about itself, not what we measured in its code.
Where they stand today
Enterprise-grade agentic workflow platform with built-in RPA and high-availability focus for production deployments, unlike many prototyping-focused workflow engines.

Six axes, head to head
Each axis runs 0 to 5. The label under a score is what that project's own docs claim, not a category average.
| Axis | astron-agent | unlazy |
|---|---|---|
Context depth How much of your codebase it sees before it answers: the open diff, the diff plus related files, or the whole repository. | ●●●●● Diff only | ●●●●● Diff + related files |
Noise control How it keeps output volume down — severity thresholds, deduplication, incremental runs over new commits only. | ●●●●● No explicit controls | ●●●●● Approval & strict checks |
Customization How far it bends to your team: custom rules, prompts, style guides, per-path config. | ●●●●● Custom extensions supported | ●●●●● Config files & templates |
Privacy Whether your code stays on your own infrastructure: fully local, self-hostable, or cloud API only. | ●●●●● Self-hostable | ●●●●● Self-hostable |
Model freedom Whether you can point it at any provider, or it is wired to one. | ●●●●● Bring-your-own models | ●●●●● Specific agents |
Setup ease What it takes to get a first useful run out of it. | ●●●●● Docker quick start | ●●●●● One-command install |
Which one to pick
Pick astron-agent if…
Enterprise-grade — pick Astron when you need a self-hostable, high-availability agent platform with model management, RPA integration, and extensible integrations for production use.
- Model freedom: Bring-your-own models (5/5 against 3/5)
Pick unlazy if…
Reproducible verification — use when you need strict, executable acceptance gates, recorded approvals, and re-verification for long-horizon agent work.
- Context depth: Diff + related files (3/5 against 1/5)
- Noise control: Approval & strict checks (4/5 against 1/5)
