kungfu vs pfc-mcp

kungfu: Kungfu keeps a unit of Work outside any single agent session, recording its objective, progress, evidence, next action and completion state, so the same Work can move between Codex, Claude, OpenCode, Amp or your own agent without re-explaining context. Each Agent attempt is recorded under the Work, a second live writer is blocked, and an Agent cannot approve its own result: completion goes through independent review. It is in Alpha.; pfc-mcp: pfc-mcp connects AI agents to ITASCA PFC through the Model Context Protocol. It provides tools for browsing PFC documentation and executing simulations via natural conversation. The project supports multiple PFC versions and works with various MCP clients.
