Validate activity before betting a new project on myclaw-bench. - AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism. - Evaluation & Observability: Defer heavyweight eval infra only until you have real traffic - never skip it once users depend on answers. - LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves. ## When NOT to use llm-course - - If you only require a quick introduction to LLMs without deep dive into core components - - When you prefer working directly with commercial platforms that provide complete services rather than following detailed steps on building and deploying models yourself through this course's open,DI ## Common questions ### What is the difference between myclaw-bench and llm-course? myclaw-bench: The definitive benchmark for AI agents on OpenClaw. 45 tasks across 4 tiers.
