Terms of use and disclaimer

alignment.md is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, timeliness, availability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. You use it at your own risk.

alignment.md shows no third-party data: no prices, rates, fees, market data or provider data, and it fetches nothing from other sites. Every number a tool uses comes from your request or from a generic formula the tool states. Those formulas are simplifications. They can be wrong for your case, and the skill and this site can be inaccurate, incomplete or not current.

Check every figure yourself, with the people and sources you rely on, before you act on it.

Nothing here is a safety assessment, certification or guarantee of behaviour, and nothing here is legal, compliance or other professional advice. Nothing on alignment.md is a recommendation or endorsement of any provider, product or service. The ALIGNMENT.md skill is guidance for software agents and doesn’t guarantee any outcome.

The tools calculate, compare and check what you send against rules you choose. They don’t approve, enforce, certify or verify anything, including anyone’s identity, they can miss problems, and a clean result isn’t an approval or an assurance. Nothing on alignment.md makes anything compliant with a law, regulation or standard, legally valid, or safe.

Nothing here is a safety assessment, an audit, a certification or a guarantee of behaviour. The tools match tags, count lines and do arithmetic on text you send: a clean lint means the file is complete as text, a plan step marked allowed means its tags met the file's lines, and a score is a weighted pass rate of the results you sent. None of that says what an agent will do, and none of it replaces your own review, testing and supervision.

alignment.md never runs, judges or controls an agent itself. The ALIGNMENT.md file is yours: you write it, you decide what it means, and you are responsible for the agents that work under it, for the approvals you give and for the actions they take.

The action categories, verdicts and checks are a fixed vocabulary for text, not a standard, a legal classification or a measure of compliance with any law, regulation or policy.

alignment.md never runs, judges or controls an agent itself. Anything your agents do runs on your own accounts, under the terms of the services you use, at your cost. You are responsible for the settings you choose, for approvals, for your credentials and for following every service’s terms and the law. Settings an agent drafted are yours only once you agree to them.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operators and contributors of alignment.md are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of money, data, profits or business, arising from your use of, or inability to use, alignment.md or any information from it, even if told such loss was possible. Where liability can’t be excluded, our total liability is limited to US$100.

The skill and the tools use generic terms and public, generic formulas. Names of standards, units and file formats are used only to describe them.

Where code on alignment.md (for example, an install command or a configuration file name) mentions a tool, client or service so that it works with it, that name is a trademark of its owner, used only for compatibility. alignment.md is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of them. If you own a mark and want us to change how we use it, write to us and we’ll act promptly.

Don’t overload, attack or try to disrupt alignment.md, and don’t use it to break the law or anyone else’s terms. We may rate-limit, block, change or stop any part of alignment.md at any time, without notice.

alignment.md has no accounts, sets no cookies and asks for no personal information. To learn what’s useful, we count page views, copies, skill fetches and API and MCP calls with anonymous server-side events. We store no IP addresses: a one-way daily hash of the IP address and browser string counts unique visitors, and the country comes from our host’s request headers. Counting runs only on the live site, and visiting with ?internal=1 turns it off in that browser.

Settings and anything you send to a tool are used only to answer that request. alignment.md doesn’t store them and doesn’t send their values to analytics: only the tool name, a known preset name and how many settings were given. Our host keeps standard server logs.

The ALIGNMENT.md skill and this site’s code are under the MIT License. Anything owned by third parties is not covered by that license.

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the current version, and continued use means you accept it.

The changelog, the updates shown on the page and any list of planned work describe what has shipped and what we are weighing. They are information, not a commitment to build, keep or support anything, and planned items can change or be dropped without notice.
