 - Tags unique to agentic_security: agent-framework, agent-security, ai-red-team, llm-evaluation. - Also covers Vector Databases. - Leaner open-issue backlog (70). ### Choose TradingAgents if
 - Requirements: Min 8 GB RAM; Python environment setup is required.; Deep understanding of finance and LLMs will enhance the utilization of this framework.. - Tags unique to TradingAgents: agent, finance, llm, multiagent. - When your project involves complex multi-agent interactions specifically in the finance domain, utilizing LLMs to manage trading strategies. ## When NOT to use agentic_security - AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism. - LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves. - Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate. ## When NOT to use TradingAgents - If simplicity and ease of deployment are prioritized over advanced AI capabilities; TradingAgents' complexity might introduce unnecessary overhead. - When the focus is on non-financial applications or when LLM integration isn't necessary, as this framework specializes in financial market trading with a multi-agent approach. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between agentic_security and TradingAgents? agentic_security: Agentic LLM Vulnerability Scanner / AI red teaming kit đŸ§Ș.
