## When NOT to use TencentPretrain

- Last GitHub push was 707 days ago (dormant maintenance, Aug 4, 2024). Validate activity before betting a new project on TencentPretrain.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
