MetaGPT vs AgentRunKit

MetaGPT: MetaGPT is a multi-agent framework that assigns different roles to LLMs, enabling them to collaborate on complex software development tasks. It takes a one-line requirement and outputs comprehensive project artifacts, mimicking a software company's entire process.; AgentRunKit: AgentRunKit is a lightweight Swift 6 framework for building LLM-powered agents with type-safe tool calling. It features zero dependencies, full Sendable support, async/await concurrency, and compatibility with both cloud and on-device models via MCP.
