The tool heavily relies on TypeScript and TypeSpec, which may be unfamiliar to developers not experienced with these technologies.
The official repository lacks comprehensive guides or a wide range of practical examples, making it difficult for new users to get started quickly.
Version updates often introduce incompatible API changes that require significant adjustments in existing codebases.
The tool is tightly coupled with the OpenAI API, so any instability or frequent changes in OpenAI’s APIs can affect the reliability and functionality of this package.
