Curator's take

Use Litho when you want a one-shot, opinionated architecture wiki (C4 layers, diagrams, multilingual) for a repo you inherited or need to onboard people onto - it is fast, single-binary, and the output reads like a human wrote it. Not a live code-intelligence layer: it regenerates rather than syncs, has no query API, and agents consume it as static markdown. The author has moved on to Terrain (which keeps the knowledge base in sync and serves it over ACP); Litho remains the focused generator. If you want the docs to stay current as agents edit code, mex or graft are the living-wiki alternatives; if you want a click-around dependency map instead of prose, codeflow.
