| Best use | Best for an individual developer or small team tracing a bug, adding a test, or implementing a bounded change with a reviewable plan and diff. Avoid broad production access or unscoped Auto-approve, and do not treat it as a replacement for tests, Git, or human review. | Best for an individual developer or small team that needs encrypted, testable backups of project files and exported database dumps. It works with local or remote storage and can be scheduled by the operating system. It does not replace application-consistent database exports or recovery testing. | For developers and small teams that want architecture and data-flow diagrams close to the repository and reviewable as text. Use it when relationships matter more than pixel-perfect placement; not for free-form marketing design or exact manual positioning. |
