## Choose when

### Choose Ori-Mnemos if…

- Ori-Mnemos is primarily TypeScript; Agent-Reach is Python.
- License: Ori-Mnemos is Apache-2.0, Agent-Reach is MIT.
- Tags unique to Ori-Mnemos: agent-memory, ai-agents, knowledge-graph, llm.
- Also covers Data & Retrieval.
- Ori-Mnemos ships an MCP server manifest.
- When you need a robust, local-first solution that prioritizes offline capabilities and security.

### Choose Agent-Reach if…

- Agent-Reach is primarily Python; Ori-Mnemos is TypeScript.
- License: Agent-Reach is MIT, Ori-Mnemos is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to Agent-Reach: agent-infrastructure, ai-agent, ai-search, automation.
- Also covers Developer Tools, LLM Frameworks.

## When NOT to use Ori-Mnemos

- When real-time synchronization across devices or cloud integration is a non-negotiable requirement for your application.
- If you are looking for a memory system that leverages distributed databases for scalable access patterns; Ori-Mnemos focuses on local storage using SQLite.
- In environments where complex, multi-node architectures and high availability requirements demand more than a single point of data persistence.

## When NOT to use Agent-Reach

- AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.
- Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
