When NOT to use agent-framework

Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.

  • AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.
  • Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.
  • Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
