When NOT to use giskard-oss
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- If you are working with Python versions below 3.12, as Giskard-oss requires Python 3.12+.
- When you prefer not to use tools that collect telemetry data, even if it is aggregated and does not include prompts or outputs.
- If you are looking for a tool that does not offer a modular architecture, as Giskard-oss is built with a modular set of focused packages.
- When you need a tool that does not support open-source licensing under Apache-2.0.
