Validate activity before betting a new project on oss-llmops-stack. - LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves. - 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 OpenHands - - If your project primarily uses technologies outside Python and you do not intend to integrate with ChatGPT or Claude-AI models specifically. - - When the need for customization in AI model integration is limited, as OpenHands is more rigid in its current support for specific models like ChatGPT and Claude-AI. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between oss-llmops-stack and OpenHands? oss-llmops-stack: Modular, open source LLMOps stack that separates concerns: LiteLLM unifies LLM APIs, manages routing and cost controls, and ensures high-availability, while Langfuse focuses on detailed observability,.
