## Choose when

### Choose openagent if…

- openagent is primarily Go; deepseek-pp is TypeScript.
- Tags unique to openagent: agent, agi, chatbot, knowledge-base.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks.
- openagent ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- When needing advanced coding assistance, offering deep integration with the Go programming environment

### Choose deepseek-pp if…

- deepseek-pp is primarily TypeScript; openagent is Go.
- Tags unique to deepseek-pp: ai-agent, ai-memory, automation, browser-extension.
- Need a browser-based AI agent environment with MCP (Model Context Protocol) support

## When NOT to use openagent

- If looking for broader language support beyond the focus on Go, as openagent may not cater to other programming languages or frameworks as seamlessly
- In environments where real-time performance is critical, as its reliance on LLM and RAG might introduce latency

## When NOT to use deepseek-pp

- Simpler use-cases that don’t require extensive tool integrations or complex memory features
- If you need custom extensions for browsers other than Chrome, Edge, or Firefox as supported by DeepSeek Web
