When NOT to use prism-coder
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- Real-time cloud collaboration features are essential without local fallbacks
- Budget constraints prevent subscription to cloud features, which gate higher model capabilities beyond the basic free tier
- You prefer lighter-weight tools with no persistent memory infrastructure overhead
