Draft
Terms of service
The short version: you own your software, you decide what ForgeOS is allowed to do, and we do not claim the output is correct without review.
1. What is on offer today
You can create a workspace by signing in with an account you already have. There is still no published price, no payment collection and no subscription, so nothing you do here today is a purchase.
Because none of that exists yet, this draft says nothing about fees, renewal, auto-renewal, refunds or taxes. Those clauses will be written when there is a real commercial offer to attach them to, and pricing explains what we have already committed to about them.
2. Your software stays yours
You own your code
Your repositories, and the changes ForgeOS produces in them, are yours. We claim no ownership of either.
You own the output
Code, tests, documentation and artifacts produced for your goals belong to you.
We own ForgeOS
The product itself, and anything we build that is not specific to your repositories, remains ours.
Licence to operate
You grant us only what is needed to run the work you asked for — read, change and store your content for that purpose.
4. What we would ask of you
Connect only what you may
That you have the right to connect the repositories you connect, and to let us process what is in them.
Review before it matters
That you review changes before they reach anything you care about. The product is built to make that possible; it does not remove the need.
Keep your grants honest
That the authority you grant reflects what you actually intend, and that you withdraw it when it no longer does.
Do not use it to harm
Not for unlawful purposes, not to attack other systems, not to build things designed to cause harm.
5. What we do not promise
This section matters more than the rest, so it is written plainly rather than in capitals.
Not that the software is correct
Generated software can be wrong. Review exists because of that. ForgeOS tells you what was verified and by what — never that the result is correct.
No availability commitment
There is no SLA, no uptime figure and no credit scheme, because none has been measured over a meaningful period.
No compliance certification
We do not certify your compliance with any standard and hold no audit report.
No guarantee of a given outcome
A goal may fail. When it does, ForgeOS stops and tells you rather than retrying quietly.
Left deliberately blank for the lawyer. Limitation of liability, indemnities, governing law, jurisdiction and dispute resolution are not drafted here. Numbers and jurisdictions invented by the software would look authoritative and be worthless, which is worse than their absence.
6. Ending it
You can stop at any time
Withdraw our access, and ForgeOS stops. Revoking a grant halts future work that depended on it rather than silently downgrading.
You can take your work with you
Your goals, work records and evidence are exportable. Your code was always in your own repositories.
We would give notice
If we end your access other than for a serious breach, we intend to give reasonable notice and time to export.
Deletion
On request we delete your content, subject to the audit-integrity and backup limits described in the privacy draft.
7. Changes
When reviewed terms replace this draft they will carry a date and say plainly that they are in force. We intend to give notice of material changes before they take effect, and never to make a change retroactive.
Reviewing this?
If something here is wrong, missing or would not survive scrutiny, we would rather hear it now than after somebody has relied on it.
