### Choose nuke if…

- nuke is primarily C#; oh-my-openagent is TypeScript.
- License: nuke is MIT, oh-my-openagent is Other.
- Tags unique to nuke: build-automation, c#, continuous-integration, nuke.
- Also covers Computer Vision.
- nuke ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.

## When NOT to use oh-my-openagent

- When your project is not reliant on AI integration or complex orchestration capabilities. For simpler codebases, its advanced features may be overkill.
- If your development environment does not support TypeScript or if you are exclusively working with Codex CLI and prefer a less integrated solution, opting for another tool could be more suitable since

## When NOT to use nuke

- Last GitHub push was 225 days ago (slowing maintenance, Dec 2, 2025). Validate activity before betting a new project on nuke.
- 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.
