context-sherpa vs on-policy

context-sherpa: Context Sherpa is a platform for Context Engineering that enhances AI coding agents by providing precise symbolic signals from codebases. It uses SCIP-based indexing and structural analysis to reduce token consumption by up to 90% while improving accuracy. The tool offers both a GUI Code Atlas Explorer and a headless MCP server for integration with tools like Cursor and Cline.; on-policy: This repository implements MAPPO, a multi-agent variant of PPO, widely used in cooperative multi-agent games and research. It provides robust implementations for various multi-agent environments like StarCraft II, Hanabi, and Google Research Football, along with detailed training scripts and hyperparameter guidance.
