When NOT to use kubeshark
- 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.
- Evaluation & Observability: Defer heavyweight eval infra only until you have real traffic - never skip it once users depend on answers.

When NOT to use Front-End-Checklist
- - For projects strictly limited to backend development as it focuses on frontend practices and is designed for frontend workflows.
- - In small-scale hobby projects where comprehensive quality reviews might be overkill given the scope of application. Smaller projects may not require such an extensive set of rules and guidelines.
- - If your project already has a well-established, customized checklist that meets all your needs and does not require integration with MCP-capable agents for automated frontend code review.
