## Choose when

### Choose oh-my-pi if…

- oh-my-pi is primarily TypeScript; agent-toolkit is Python.
- Requirements: oh-my-pi requires a terminal environment and likely needs a setup appropriate for TypeScript development, such as Node.js runtime..
- Tags unique to oh-my-pi: ai-coding-agent, anthropic, bun, cli.
- oh-my-pi ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- When you need an AI coding assistant that can integrate directly into your terminal environment, supporting real-time editing with hash-anchor capabilities.

### Choose agent-toolkit if…

- agent-toolkit is primarily Python; oh-my-pi is TypeScript.
- Tags unique to agent-toolkit: agent-skills, ai, automation, claude-code.
- For enhancing specific tasks like documentation, planning, and workflow management

## When NOT to use oh-my-pi

- If you are looking for a GUI-based solution since oh-my-pi strictly operates within the terminal, lacking any graphical user interfaces or web browser components.
- For developers preferring other programming languages as the tool's optimized tool harness is geared towards TypeScript and does not natively support all language features of alternatives like Python.

## When NOT to use agent-toolkit

- If you seek support for languages other than Python
- When working with non-Python based coding agents that require specialized skills not covered by this toolkit
- In cases where custom, from-scratch development is preferred over using pre-packaged scripts
