When NOT to use fastmcp
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- Avoid fastmcp if your project does not require the Model Context Protocol (MCP), as it is specialized for this protocol and may introduce unnecessary complexity.
- Do not use fastmcp if you are working in a language other than Python, as it is a Python-specific library and will not be compatible with other languages.
