Choose Agent-Reach if…
- License: Agent-Reach is MIT, PDFMathTranslate is AGPL-3.0.
- Tags unique to Agent-Reach: agent-infrastructure, ai-search, bilibili, claude-code.

When NOT to use Agent-Reach
- 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.
- Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.
Choose PDFMathTranslate if…
