Evaluate and review whether a solution should be built with low-code/no-code platforms (Power Platform, Copilot Studio, Power Apps, Power Automate, Logic Apps, AppSheet, OutSystems, Mendix) or pro-code (custom code on Foundry, Agent Framework, .NET, Python, React, Azure Functions, AKS, etc.). Use when reviewing an ADR/Tech Spec that proposes one approach, when an issue could plausibly go either way, or when an existing low-code solution is hitting its ceiling and pro-code is being considered.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Low-Code vs Pro-Code Architecture Review > Purpose: give the Architect and Architecture Reviewer a repeatable rubric for choosing between low-code platforms and pro-code, and for reviewing whether an existing decision still fits. > Focus: decision criteria, anti-patterns, review checklist, escalation triggers. Not a tutorial for any specific platform. --- ## When to Use - Reviewing an ADR that picks Copilot Studio, Power Apps, Power Automate, Logic Apps, or another low-code platform - Reviewing an ADR that picks pro-code where a low-code platform would have been adequate - An existing low-code solution is hitting limits (perf, governance, complexity) and a migration is proposed - An AI agent is being scoped and the team must choose between Copilot Studio (declarative, low-code) and Foundry/Agent Framework (pro-code) - The user explicitly asks "should this be low-code or pro-code?" --- ## Core Definitions | Term | Meaning | |------|---------| | Low-code | Declarative or visual authoring with vendor-managed runtime. Examples: Microsoft Copilot Studio, Power Apps, Power Automate, Logic Apps, AppSheet, OutSystems, Mendix, Retool, Make. | …

How to install
mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/low-code-vs-pro-code@sha256:717e7b0ace4bb73cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
