## Decision facts: OpenHands

- **Adopt for:** OpenHands is an AI-driven development tool that integrates with multiple AI models like ChatGPT and Claude-AI to offer intelligent support for coding tasks in Python.

## Choose when

### Choose OpenHands if…

- OpenHands is primarily Python; ai-reliability-copilot is TypeScript.
- Tags unique to OpenHands: claude-ai, artificial-intelligence, chatgpt, openai.
- - You are working predominantly on Python projects requiring integration of advanced AI functionalities such as those offered by ChatGPT or Claude-AI.

### Choose ai-reliability-copilot if…

- ai-reliability-copilot is primarily TypeScript; OpenHands is Python.
- Tags unique to ai-reliability-copilot: incident-response, ai-sdk, deepseek, nextjs.
- Also covers Vector Databases.
- ai-reliability-copilot ships an MCP server manifest.

## 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.

## When NOT to use ai-reliability-copilot

- Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.
- 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.
