Choose doit if…
- doit is primarily Python; career-ops is JavaScript.
- Tags unique to doit: build-automation, build-system, build-tool, cli.
- Also covers Computer Vision, Data & Retrieval.
When NOT to use doit
- Last GitHub push was 153 days ago (slowing maintenance, Feb 12, 2026). Validate activity before betting a new project on doit.
- Data & Retrieval: Skip a heavy ingestion framework when your corpus is small and static; a script plus the embedding API is enough.
- Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.
Choose career-ops if…
- career-ops is primarily JavaScript; doit is Python.
- Tags unique to career-ops: ai, ai-agent, anthropic, ats.
- Also covers AI Agents.
When NOT to use career-ops
- 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.
