When NOT to use aide
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- Last GitHub push was 432 days ago (dormant maintenance, May 6, 2025). Validate activity before betting a new project on aide.
- AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.

Head-to-head comparisons
Common questions
- What are the best alternatives to aide?
- Graph-backed alternatives to aide include AutoGPT, claude-mem, gpt4all, hello-agents, langchain. GraphCanon ranks them by typed relationship edges and constraint overlap from decision_facts - not marketing votes or raw star sort.
- How does GraphCanon rank aide alternatives?
- Direct alternative and successor edges from the knowledge graph come first, ordered by edge type and shared constraint facets (persona, runtime, hosting). Category neighbours fill the list only after curated edges. Stars are shown for context, not as the primary sort.
