| Best use | Best for a developer or analyst extracting text from several document formats before search or supplying selected passages to an AI agent. It provides a repeatable CLI command and Python library, while requiring review against the original. It is not intended for layout-perfect document publishing. | Best for an analyst, developer, or small team that needs to inspect and join large data files and rerun analysis locally. It adds reviewable SQL without database-server setup. It is not a multi-user transactional database for many small concurrent writes from separate processes. | Best for a developer or project owner working on a substantial feature or a difficult bug. It helps clarify requirements, approve a plan, and inspect tests and file changes. Its value is a visible path from decision to verification. A small text edit may not need the full workflow. |
