Create a conceptual editorial painting for the comparison "Claude Code vs GitHub Copilot: repository agent or GitHub-centered workflow?". Decision context: Start with GitHub Copilot when the decision centers on GitHub collaboration and integrated assistance. Evaluate Claude Code when you want a repository agent organized around commands and project conventions. Paint a miniature workshop with two alternative paths and a central inspection desk. Use physical blank paper, books with blank spines, modular blocks and quiet lamps as a metaphor for checking work. Both paths deserve equal visual weight. This is a wordless artwork, not an infographic, technical diagram or advertisement. Refined gouache, fine architectural ink and tactile paper, warm cream, forest green, sage, ocean teal and restrained ochre. Coherent scale and generous breathing room, landscape 3:2 if available. Every surface is unlettered. No letters, numbers, labels, annotations, arrows, brand logos, watermarks, people, robots, product screenshots, charts or factual feature claims. The illustration is fictional and not evidence of software performance.
