## When NOT to use doit

- Last GitHub push was 153 days ago (slowing maintenance, Feb 12, 2026). Validate activity before betting a new project on doit.
- Data & Retrieval: Skip a heavy ingestion framework when your corpus is small and static; a script plus the embedding API is enough.
- Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.
