## Choose when

### Choose Agent-Reach if…

- Agent-Reach is primarily Python; MOE is C++.
- License: Agent-Reach is MIT, MOE is Other.
- Tags unique to Agent-Reach: agent-infrastructure, ai-search, bilibili, claude-code.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks, AI Agents.

### Choose MOE if…

- MOE is primarily C++; Agent-Reach is Python.
- License: MOE is Other, Agent-Reach is MIT.
- Tags unique to MOE: c++.
- MOE ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.

## When NOT to use Agent-Reach

- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.
- Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.

## When NOT to use MOE

- MOE is archived on GitHub. Prefer an active alternative unless you maintain a private fork or need a frozen dependency.
- Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.
