================================================================================
USAGE & COMPLIANCE
================================================================================

Synnoesis is an orchestration layer. It can route to multiple model providers
(e.g. Anthropic's Claude), directly or through gateways such as OpenRouter,
always using YOUR OWN credentials. It bundles no API keys and grants no model
access of its own. Your use of any model is governed by your own agreement with
that provider (and any gateway you route through), not by this project.

You are responsible for complying with the terms of whichever providers and
gateways you use. For Anthropic/Claude specifically:

  * Personal / single-user use: a Claude subscription via the official Claude
    CLI is permitted.

  * Serving other people or customers (multi-user / commercial-facing): you must
    use your OWN Anthropic API key (or a commercial gateway/API such as
    OpenRouter) -- NOT a personal subscription. Routing other users' requests
    through personal subscription credentials violates Anthropic's terms.

  * Review the relevant provider/gateway terms before deploying -- e.g.
    Anthropic: https://www.anthropic.com/legal ; OpenRouter:
    https://openrouter.ai/terms

Data note: prompts and outputs routed through a third-party gateway (e.g.
OpenRouter) pass through that gateway and the downstream provider, each subject
to its own data-retention and privacy terms. Review them for sensitive use.

Commercial use of Synnoesis itself is permitted under the Apache License 2.0 --
just bring your own keys and protect yourself.

================================================================================
EXPORT & ELIGIBILITY
================================================================================

Access to Anthropic's Claude models is subject to Anthropic's geographic
availability and to applicable export-control and sanctions laws (including U.S.
export controls, which in 2026 restricted access to certain frontier models for
foreign nationals). You are responsible for ensuring that you, your deployment,
and your users are eligible to access the specific models you use. Synnoesis is
model-agnostic and does not guarantee the availability of any particular model.
