When NOT to use trae-agent
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- If your workflow does not align with using Docker containers, since Trae Agent heavily relies on Docker for task execution.
- In scenarios where you need a tool that offers more direct control over the LLM model parameters; Trae Agent provides integration flexibility but may require additional setup to specify these customiz
