# conductor vs sops

conductor and sops share 3 technologies: Postgres, AWS S3, and Google. conductor is written in Java and sops in Go.

- [conductor-oss/conductor](https://seerepo.com/r/conductor-oss/conductor): Conductor is an event driven agentic workflow engine providing durable and highly resilient execution engine for applications and AI Agents
- [getsops/sops](https://seerepo.com/r/getsops/sops): Simple and flexible tool for managing secrets

## What they share and what sets them apart

- In common: Postgres, AWS S3, Google
- Only in conductor: Spring, Redis, MongoDB
- Only in sops: pq, s3, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/credentials, github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/azidentity, golang.org/x/oauth2, github.com/sirupsen/logrus, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/config, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/sts, github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/azcore

## Side by side

| | conductor | sops |
|---|---|---|
| Size | 568,609 lines written, 2,325 code files | 26,757 lines written, 53 code files |
| Who writes it | 2% of its commits signed by AI. With Claude Code and Cursor | 0.1% of its commits signed by AI. With Claude Code |
| Activity | Last push October 31, 2026, 4,749 commits, 32,400 stars | Last push November 3, 2026, 1,731 commits, 23,610 stars |
| Tests | 705 test files. 34.5% of its code files have a test that imports them | 30 test files. 54.7% of its code files have a test that imports them |

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
