DevArch Methodology License

Copyright © 2026 David Cornelson. All rights reserved. This license governs use of the DevArch Materials — documentation, methodology, agent definitions, scripts, workflow guides, hook implementations, and all related materials.

Terms of use

  1. Evaluation. You may review these Materials solely to evaluate a potential purchase or license.
  2. No unauthorized use. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sublicense, sell, or create derivative works based on these Materials without a valid license.
  3. Purchase / license. Licenses are sold through Polar checkout; the installer and a license token are delivered to buyers by email.
  4. No warranty. These Materials are provided “as is,” without warranty of any kind, express or implied.

Trial license

DevArch offers a 14-day free trial with full access. Trial use is governed by a separate Trial License Agreement, provided when access is granted, with these key terms:

  1. Evaluation only. Trial access is granted solely for evaluating the Materials for a potential purchase. No production use.
  2. Intellectual property. The methodology, agent architecture, skill definitions, workflow patterns, notation systems, session-management approach, capability-activation system, and behavioral-testing framework remain the sole intellectual property of the Licensor.
  3. No incorporation. You may not incorporate, adapt, replicate, or re-implement concepts, patterns, architectures, or methodologies from the Materials into any product, service, platform, tool, or internal system without a separate written commercial license.
  4. No derivative works. You may not create derivative works, competing products, or substantially similar methodologies based on or inspired by the Materials.
  5. Commercial use needs a license. Using DevArch's intellectual property in a commercial product, internal tool, platform feature, or service offering requires a separate commercial license. If that's what you need, get in touch and we'll arrange one.
  6. Survival. The intellectual-property terms continue to apply after the trial period ends.
  7. Expiration. When the trial ends, access is revoked and local copies should be removed. Purchase a license to continue.
