Ideal if you need to customize data ownership and permissions. ## Choose when ### Choose agent-orchestrator if… - agent-orchestrator is primarily Go; agno is Python. - Tags unique to agent-orchestrator: agent-fleet, agent-swarm, claude-code, codex-cli. - You are working on large-scale projects with multiple parallel tasks that require efficient CI fixes, merge conflict resolution and code reviews. ### Choose agno if… - agno is primarily Python; agent-orchestrator is Go. - Tags unique to agno: agents, ai-agents, developer-tools, python. - Use agno for a high level of control over your AI agent platform, including 50+ production API endpoints and support for 100+ integrations. Ideal if you need to customize data ownership and permissions. ## When NOT to use agent-orchestrator - If your work primarily consists of simple or small projects with light tasks, the overhead of setting up Agent Orchestrator may outweigh its benefits. - If you prefer traditional workflow tools without reliance on autonomous agent technology for day-to-day operations. ## When NOT to use agno - 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. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between agent-orchestrator and agno? agent-orchestrator: Agent Orchestrator manages fleets of coding agents for parallel tasks like CI fixes and code reviews.. agno: Build, run, and manage your own agent platform..
