Put it to work

  1. Write the job and smallest successful outcome this tool should support.
  2. Compare one realistic workload or workflow against the published plan and deployment conditions.
  3. Record likely growth costs and validate the fit with the people who will operate the tool.

Limits and tradeoffs

Free and paid tiers cap repositories and apply fair-use/protected-request limits; enterprise-grade modules require tailored pricing, and no self-hosting option was stated in the fetched pages.
