When NOT to use agents-from-scratch
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- Last GitHub push was 182 days ago (slowing maintenance, Jan 14, 2026). Validate activity before betting a new project on agents-from-scratch.
- 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.
