Terms of Service

Effective Date: June 1, 2026

Welcome to the Minovative Mind CLI! These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Minovative Mind command-line interface, its related services, and the AI features powered by Vertex AI (collectively, the "Service"). By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Service, you ("User" or "You") agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Service.

1. Description of Service

Minovative Mind CLI is an automated AI agent designed to assist software developers by writing, reviewing, and modifying code directly within their terminal. The Service utilizes third-party Large Language Models (LLMs), primarily Google's Vertex AI (including Gemini models), to process user queries, inspect local file context, and generate code or execute terminal commands.

2. Eligibility

To use the Service, you must:

  • Be at least 18 years of age or the age of majority in your jurisdiction.
  • Have a valid GitHub account, which is required for authentication (minovative-mind-cli login).
  • Comply with all applicable local, state, national, and international laws and regulations.

3. Account and Authentication

  • GitHub Login: You must authenticate using your GitHub account to access the AI models securely. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your authentication credentials and any actions taken under your account.
  • Account Security: If you suspect any unauthorized use of your account or access tokens, you must notify us immediately and revoke access via GitHub.

4. User Responsibilities and Acceptable Use

You agree NOT to use the Service to:

  • Generate Malicious Code: Create malware, ransomware, viruses, or any code designed to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to computer systems.
  • Violate Intellectual Property: Generate or distribute content that infringes on the copyrights, trademarks, or trade secrets of others.
  • Abuse the API: Circumvent rate limits, automate requests maliciously, or attempt to reverse-engineer the CLI or the underlying AI infrastructure.
  • Process Sensitive Data: Pass Personally Identifiable Information (PII), sensitive financial data, or protected health information (PHI) into the AI agent, as local file context is transmitted to third-party LLMs for processing.

5. Intellectual Property

  • Your Code: You retain full ownership and intellectual property rights to the code you write and the projects you manage using the Service. Minovative Mind does not claim ownership of your local files or the code generated by the AI for your specific project.
  • The CLI: The Minovative Mind CLI software, its logo, documentation, and underlying proprietary architecture are the exclusive property of Minovative Mind.

6. Disclaimer regarding Artificial Intelligence

  • No Guarantee of Accuracy: The Service utilizes generative AI models. The output (code, text, or commands) may contain errors, bugs, security vulnerabilities, or hallucinations.
  • User Verification: You are strictly responsible for reviewing, testing, and validating all AI-generated code and commands before executing them or deploying them to production environments.
  • Automated Execution: The CLI may suggest and run terminal commands on your behalf. You are responsible for reviewing commands before granting the CLI permission to execute them.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. MINOVATIVE MIND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

8. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MINOVATIVE MIND AND ITS AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM:

  • YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE.
  • ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR LOCAL FILES OR SYSTEM BY THE CLI.
  • ANY ERRORS, BUGS, OR VULNERABILITIES INTRODUCED INTO YOUR CODEBASE BY THE AI MODELS.

9. Third-Party Services

The Service integrates with third-party providers, including GitHub (for authentication) and Google Cloud Vertex AI (for AI inference). Your use of the Service is also subject to the terms and conditions and privacy policies of these third-party providers. Minovative Mind is not responsible for the availability, uptime, or performance of these third-party services.

10. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including but not limited to a breach of these Terms or excessive usage that degrades the Service for others.

11. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify or replace these Terms at any time. We will provide notice of significant changes by updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this document or through an announcement within the CLI or our repository. Continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes your consent to the new Terms.
