1. 01

   Limited language support beyond Swift

   Primary development is in Swift, with no official support for other languages like Python or JavaScript.

2. 02

   Small community and limited third-party integrations

   Being a relatively new tool, the ecosystem lacks extensive plugins and community contributions compared to more established tools.

   Complex setup for self-hosted models

   Setting up privately hosted language models like Llama2 or Mistral can be technically challenging and requires significant system configuration.

4. 04
