Choose skills if…

  • License: skills is Other, gpt_academic is GPL-3.0.
  • Tags unique to skills: python.
  • Also covers AI Agents.

When NOT to use skills

  • 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.
