## Decision facts: autogen

- **Requirements:** Min 4 GB RAM; AutoGen requires Python 3.10 or later.; Ensure security when connecting to MCP servers due to the potential for local command execution and sensitive information exposure.
- **Adopt for:** AutoGen is a Python-based framework for developing and managing agentic AI systems. It includes the AutoGen Studio for no-code GUI setup, integrating with various models.

## Choose when

### Choose korean-law-mcp if…

- korean-law-mcp is primarily TypeScript; autogen is Python.
- License: korean-law-mcp is MIT, autogen is CC-BY-4.0.
- Tags unique to korean-law-mcp: citation-verification, claude, hallucination-detection, korean-law.

### Choose autogen if…

- autogen is primarily Python; korean-law-mcp is TypeScript.
- License: autogen is CC-BY-4.0, korean-law-mcp is MIT.
- Requirements: Min 4 GB RAM; AutoGen requires Python 3.10 or later.; Ensure security when connecting to MCP servers due to the potential for local command execution and sensitive information exposure..
- Tags unique to autogen: agentic-agi, agents, ai, autogen.

## When NOT to use korean-law-mcp

- 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.

## When NOT to use autogen

- If you require tools supporting multiple programming languages beyond Python, as AutoGen is strictly a Python-based framework.
- When deploying in environments where connecting to external servers (like those used by MCP) could pose security risks or is prohibited.
- You need solutions which do not involve additional installations for server components such as `playwright/mcp`, as AutoGen requires this setup for certain functionalities.
