When NOT to use cuga-agent
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- If your enterprise cannot support Python 3.12+ and the uv package manager prerequisites.
- In scenarios where a non-customizable, cloud-managed agent service is preferred over a self-hosted solution.
