Acceptable Use Policy

Terms version: 2026-05-29-v1

Draft for counsel review — not legal advice. This policy is part of the Terms of Service. It governs how the Front End engine, access keys, and APIs may be used.

Customer shall not, and shall not permit any employee, contractor, agent, or AI system under Customer's control to do any of the following.

1. Reverse engineering & copying

Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive source code, algorithms, or trade secrets of the Front End engine, MCP server, or hosted APIs.
Scrape, bulk download, mirror, or systematically extract engine responses, tool schemas, prompts, or server rules for reuse outside authorized MCP calls.
Reimplement or replicate engine operations locally — including promote/capture, next-of-kin re-grounding, cross-project meta-model, or platform export validators — to substitute for or avoid Front End subscription fees.
Copy or redistribute Operator's client installers, Hub UI, or Canvas application code except as explicitly allowed.

2. Circumvention & abuse

Share, sell, publish, or sublicense the organization access key except as allowed on Team tier via official seat invites.
Circumvent entitlement checks, rate limits, tier limits, or authentication.
Use Front End to attack, probe, or disrupt Operator infrastructure.
Use one Free-tier org to operate multiple commercial products in violation of tier limits.

3. Agent & automation responsibility

Customer is responsible for AI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, custom bots) operating in Customer repos: agents must not bypass the engine per the Agent Integrity Policy.
Customer will not configure agents to ignore Front End policy files (.front-end/policy, the Front End section of CLAUDE.md) or instruct them to reimplement proprietary engine behavior.

4. Resale & redistribution

No resale, white-label, or redistribution of the Front End engine, MCP endpoint, or "Front End connectivity" as a standalone product or service to third parties.
Customer may build and ship their own applications using their code and manifest; Customer may not package Front End engine access into a product sold to others without a written partner agreement.

Enforcement

Violations may result in suspension or termination of the access key and account, per the Terms of Service §8. Suspected unauthorized access or key leaks should be reported to Operator promptly.
