AppSurface licensing
Explains the OSS license boundary, commercial purchase intent, and package-readiness signals.
Source of truth
AppSurface and RazorWire are intended for public OSS adoption and commercial purchase/support. The current OSS grant is the Polyform Small Business License 1.0.0; the canonical license text lives in the repository LICENSE file. Until the first tagged package release, treat the repository license as the source-of-truth grant for source use and treat commercial terms as a separate agreement from ForgeTrust.
What the OSS license covers
- Reading, evaluating, building, and contributing to the repository.
- Using published OSS package versions under the repository license terms.
- Sharing examples, issues, pull requests, and integration feedback in public.
What commercial purchase covers
- Commercial support expectations that are not promised by the OSS license alone.
- Private adoption help, migration planning, and packaging guidance.
- Future commercial features or services that ForgeTrust may offer around AppSurface and RazorWire.
Package readiness
The direct-install packages marked commercial_ready in packages/package-index.yml are the public package surface we intend to support first. Support runtime, proof-host, and excluded package rows are visible for transparency, but they are not positioned as standalone commercial products.
Sharp edges
Pre-1.0 package versions may still make breaking changes. Read releases/upgrade-policy.md, releases/unreleased.md, and CHANGELOG.md before adopting a new version in production.
