## Choose when

### Choose concierge if…

- concierge is primarily Python; cc-switch is Rust.
- License: concierge is Other, cc-switch is MIT.
- Tags unique to concierge: agentic-ai, agentic-web, agentic-web-protocol, agentic-workflow.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks.

### Choose cc-switch if…

- cc-switch is primarily Rust; concierge is Python.
- License: cc-switch is MIT, concierge is Other.
- Tags unique to cc-switch: claude code, codex, desktop-app, hermes-agent.
- If you require seamless interaction with multiple AI agents such as Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini CLI in a single interface.

## When NOT to use concierge

- 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.

## When NOT to use cc-switch

- If you are looking for a web-based or mobile app; cc-switch is strictly desktop-focused.
- Requires manual curation of supported agents, limiting its utility if your primary agent is not included by default.
- You prioritize the use of proprietary tools over open-source solutions.
