Terms of Service

The deal between you and us, in plain language. If something here is unclear, that's a bug — please tell us.

Last updated: 2026-05-09

1. Accepting these terms

By creating an account or using Agora, you agree to these terms. If you don't, please don't use the service. We may update these terms (see section 10); continued use after a material change counts as acceptance of the new version.

2. What Agora is — and isn't

Agora is a visual orchestration UI for AI coding CLIs that run onyour machine. It pairs a web app with a local daemon (agora-relay) that spawns tools like claude on your behalf and streams their output back to the UI.

What Agora is not:

  • Not an AI provider. We don't run language models on our infrastructure. The actual model calls happen inside the CLIs running on your machine, using your subscription or API keys with the underlying provider.
  • Not a billing layer. Costs surfaced in the UI (token counts, USD per session) are reported by the CLIs themselves. You pay your model provider directly; we don't take a cut.
  • Not a hosting service. Your code, your files, and your CLI processes stay on your machine.

3. Your account

  • You're responsible for keeping your password (or the credentials of any OAuth identity you connect) secure. If you suspect someone else has accessed your account, change your password immediately and contact us.
  • One human, one account. Don't share an account across people — spin up separate accounts and pair each machine separately.
  • You must be old enough to enter a binding contract in your jurisdiction. If that age is 16 or 18 where you live, that's the floor.

4. Acceptable use

Don't use Agora to:

  • Do anything illegal, or build anything whose primary purpose is illegal in your jurisdiction or ours.
  • Attack, probe, or attempt to circumvent the security of our infrastructure (Supabase, Vercel, Sentry, the relay daemon's allowlist) or anyone else's.
  • Use the paired CLIs on your machine to produce malware, harass or impersonate other people, generate child sexual abuse material, or violate someone else's intellectual property.
  • Resell access to Agora as a hosted service without talking to us first.
  • Abuse the realtime infrastructure (e.g. flooding the relay channels, opening thousands of pair codes per minute).

5. Service availability

Agora is currently a side project. We make no SLA promise — the web app, the realtime channels, and the pair-code endpoint may go down for maintenance, after a bad deploy, or because Supabase or Vercel are having a bad day. When something is broken we'll try to fix it quickly, but we owe you no specific uptime number.

The local daemon runs on your machine and depends on your network and your CLI install — its availability is your responsibility.

6. Cost

Agora is free to use right now. If we ever introduce paid plans, we'll give existing users notice in the app and via the email on your account before any charge happens, and any free tier we offer at that point will let existing users keep doing what they're doing today (within reasonable limits).

The CLIs you connect (claude et al.) have their own billing relationships with their providers. Those costs are between you and them.

7. Termination

  • You can leave anytime. Sign out, stop the daemon, delete your account. No exit fee, no waiting period.
  • We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate section 4 (acceptable use), abuse our subprocessors, or that we're legally required to terminate. Where it's safe to do so, we'll give you notice and a chance to export your data first.
  • On termination, your auth row and server-side data tied to it are deleted. Local state in your browser and on your machine (the daemon's logs and config) is yours to clean up.

8. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

Agora is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind — no guarantee that it will be reliable, that the metadata it shows you is accurate, or that it's suitable for any particular use. AI-driven tools can produce wrong, harmful, or surprising output; please use your judgment and never let an agent run unattended on infrastructure where a mistake would be expensive.

To the maximum extent allowed by law, the Agora team is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service — for example, lost work, lost revenue, or damages caused by something an agent did on your machine. Our total liability for any direct damages is capped at the amount you paid us in the previous 12 months (which, while Agora is free, is zero).

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of: TODO: fill in a jurisdiction before launch (e.g. State of California, USA — pick whichever you actually want disputes handled in). Disputes will be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction.

10. Changes to these terms

We'll bump the "Last updated" date at the top whenever we change something. Material changes (anything that meaningfully shifts your obligations or our liability) will be flagged in the app on your next sign-in. Cosmetic edits won't trigger a notice.

Questions? File an issue on the GitHub repo linked in the footer, or email TODO: fill in a real contact email before launch.
