# Contributor License Agreement
Aivyx PA accepts contributions under the **org-wide Aivyx-Agent Contributor
License Agreement**, reproduced in full below. The same text applies in
every Aivyx-Agent repository. You accept it with a `Signed-off-by` trailer
on each commit (`git commit -s`) — see [`CONTRIBUTING.md`](CONTRIBUTING.md).
Aivyx PA's earlier project-scoped CLA (v1.0, 2026-06-19 to 2026-09-24) is
superseded by this one; its terms were substantively the same (a scope
change, not a rights change), and its text remains in git history at this
path.

## Aivyx-Agent Contributor License Agreement
**Version 1.0**
Thank you for contributing to an Aivyx-Agent project. This Contributor
License Agreement (the "Agreement") sets out the terms under which You
provide Contributions to the Licensor. It exists so that Aivyx-Agent
software can be offered under its dual model — source-available under
the Business Source License 1.1 for free personal/non-commercial use,
and under separate commercial licenses for commercial use (see each
repository's own `LICENSE` and `COMMERCIAL.md`).
This Agreement covers Contributions to **any current or future
repository published by the Licensor under the Aivyx-Agent GitHub
organization** ("the Project") — not just the repository you are
contributing to today. You accept it the same way in every repository
(see "How to accept" below) — per contribution, via a `Signed-off-by`
trailer — and its terms apply org-wide: a right you grant once, in
substance, even though the sign-off mechanic is checked per commit, per
repository.
**You keep the copyright in Your Contributions.** This Agreement is a
*license grant*, not an assignment. It does not stop You from using
Your Contributions for any other purpose.
By submitting a Contribution to the Project (including by adding a
`Signed-off-by` trailer to a commit, as described in that repository's
own `CONTRIBUTING.md`), You agree to the following terms for that and
all future Contributions to the Project.
### 1. Definitions
- **"Licensor"** means Julian (Aivyx) / the Aivyx-Agent project, the
steward of the Project.
- **"Project"** means any current or future software repository
published by the Licensor under the Aivyx-Agent GitHub organization.
- **"You"** (or **"Your"**) means the individual or legal entity
agreeing to this Agreement. If You are agreeing on behalf of a legal
entity, "You" includes that entity and its affiliates, and You
represent that You are authorized to bind it.
- **"Contribution"** means any original work of authorship — including
any modifications or additions to existing work — that You
intentionally submit to the Licensor for inclusion in, or
documentation of, the Project. "Submit" means any form of electronic,
verbal, or written communication sent to the Licensor or its
representatives (for example, pull requests, patches, issues, and
code review comments), excluding communication conspicuously marked
or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."
### 2. Grant of Copyright License
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, You grant to the Licensor and to
recipients of software distributed by the Licensor a **perpetual,
worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable** copyright license
to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, publicly
perform, sublicense, and distribute Your Contributions and such
derivative works.
In addition, and without limiting the foregoing, You grant the Licensor
the right to **license and sublicense Your Contributions, and
derivative works of them, under any license terms of the Licensor's
choosing — including the Business Source License 1.1, the MIT License,
and separate commercial (paid) license terms — and to change those
terms for future versions.** This is the right that permits Aivyx-Agent
software to be offered for free for non-commercial use and under paid
commercial licenses at the same time.
### 3. Grant of Patent License
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, You grant to the Licensor and to
recipients of software distributed by the Licensor a perpetual,
worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in
this section) patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell,
sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Project, where such license
applies only to those patent claims licensable by You that are
necessarily infringed by Your Contribution alone or by combination of
Your Contribution with the Project.
If any entity institutes patent litigation against You or any other
entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging
that Your Contribution, or the Project to which You have contributed,
constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent
licenses granted to that entity under this Agreement for that
Contribution or work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is
filed.
### 4. Your Representations
You represent that:
1. You are **legally entitled to grant the above licenses.** If Your
employer(s) have rights to intellectual property that You create
that includes Your Contributions, You represent that You have
received permission to make Contributions on behalf of that
employer, that Your employer has waived such rights for Your
Contributions to the Licensor, or that Your employer has executed a
separate agreement with the Licensor.
2. Each of Your Contributions is **Your original creation** (see
Section 5 for submissions that are not Your original creation).
3. Your Contributions include complete details of any third-party
license or other restriction (including related patents and
trademarks) of which You are personally aware and which are
associated with any part of Your Contributions.
### 5. Third-Party Works
Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You
may submit it to the Licensor separately from any Contribution,
identifying the complete details of its source and of any license or
other restriction (including related patents, trademarks, and license
agreements) of which You are personally aware, and conspicuously
marking the work as "Submitted on behalf of a third party: [named
here]."
### 6. Support and Warranties
You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions, except
to the extent You desire to provide support. Unless required by
applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions
on an **"AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND**,
either express or implied, including, without limitation, any
warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
### 7. No Obligation
The Licensor is not obligated to use, include, or distribute Your
Contributions. The decision to include any Contribution in the Project
is entirely at the Licensor's discretion.
### 8. Miscellaneous
You agree to notify the Licensor of any facts or circumstances of which
You become aware that would make these representations inaccurate in
any respect. This Agreement is the entire agreement between You and the
Licensor regarding Your Contributions, and supersedes any prior
agreement on that subject.

### How to accept
You accept this Agreement for a contribution by adding a
`Signed-off-by` trailer to each commit in your pull request:

git commit -s -m "your message"
```
See that repository's own `CONTRIBUTING.md` for full instructions. The
same sign-off also certifies the Developer Certificate of Origin.
