## When NOT to use Robby-chatbot

- Last GitHub push was 140 days ago (slowing maintenance, Feb 21, 2026). Validate activity before betting a new project on Robby-chatbot.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.
