when choosing an agent tool, not just a model.\n\n| Tool | Category | Best for | Avoid when |\n|------|----------|----------|------------|\n| [Claude Code](/agents/claude-code) | Coding agent | Terminal-native codebase work | User wants inline IDE autocomplete |\n| [GitHub Copilot Agent Mode](/agents/github-copilot-agent) | Coding agent | GitHub/IDE workflows | User wants autonomous project delivery |\n| [Devin](/agents/devin) | Coding agent | Higher-autonomy software tasks | Budget is tight or task is small |\n| [LangGraph](/agents/langgraph) | Dev framework | Stateful agent systems | Simple one-shot automation |\n| [CrewAI](/agents/crewai) | Dev framework | Role-based multi-agent workflows | Strict graph control is needed |\n| [OpenAI Agents SDK](/agents/openai-agents-sdk) | Dev framework | OpenAI-native agent apps | Provider neutrality is required |\n| [Anthropic Agent SDK](/agents/anthropic-agent-sdk) | Dev framework | Claude-native agent apps | User is not using Claude |\n| [Google ADK](/agents/google-adk) | Dev framework | Google ecosystem agents | User is outside Google stack |\n| [AutoGen](/agents/autogen) | Dev framework | Multi-agent research/prototyping | Production simplicity is priority |\n| [Mastra](/agents/mastra) | Dev framework | TypeScript agent apps | Python ecosystem is required |\n| [n8n](/agents/n8n) | Orchestration | Low-code workflow automation | Deep custom agent logic |\n| [Lindy](/agents/lindy) | No-code agent | Business process automation | Developer-level control is needed |\n\n## Selection Rules\n\n- If the user wants code edits, start with coding agents.\n- If the user wants a product workflow, start with orchestration/no-code tools.\n- If the user is building an agent product, start with dev frameworks.\n- If the task is deterministic, prefer workflow automation over agent autonomy.\n- If the task is high-risk, require review, logs, and rollback.\n\n## Agent Rule\n\nChoose the least autonomous tool that can complete the workflow reliably. More autonomy is not automatically better.","content_length":2421,"generated_at":"2026-04-24"}
