Backend Services (AGORA Fabric)

The Cuttlefish backend infrastructure, known as AGORA Fabric, is proprietary software owned by Moguls Inc. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access the backend services through the desktop application for their intended purpose. You may not:

Cuttlefish operates on a Bring-Your-Own-Key (BYOK) model. You are responsible for:

• Obtaining and maintaining valid API keys from your chosen AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, etc.)
• Complying with the terms of service, usage policies, and acceptable use policies of each AI provider you use through Cuttlefish
• All costs and charges incurred through your API keys
• Keeping your API keys secure

Moguls Inc is not a party to your agreement with any third-party AI provider. We are not responsible for any charges, service interruptions, or policy violations arising from your use of third-party services through Cuttlefish.

4. Palisade Governance

• Circumvent, disable, or tamper with Palisade governance controls
• Modify the application to bypass policy evaluations
• Forge, alter, or delete governance receipts
• Use the Software in any manner that intentionally evades safety guardrails

Attempts to circumvent governance controls may result in immediate termination of your access to the Service and may be reported to relevant authorities if illegal activity is suspected. REVIEW

5. Service Availability

The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not guarantee:

• Any specific uptime percentage or availability
• That the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free
• That defects will be corrected within any specific timeframe

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of significant changes.

6. AI-Generated Outputs

Cuttlefish facilitates interaction with AI models provided by third parties. You acknowledge and agree that:

• AI-generated outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading
• AI outputs do not constitute professional advice (legal, medical, financial, or otherwise)
