Terms of Service
The conditions for downloading and using Fermata.
Agreement
By downloading or using Fermata, you agree to these terms. Fermata is developed and maintained by Kelios LLC ("we", "our", or "us").
In these terms, Fermata comprises the macOS application, the iOS and Android companion apps, the optional cloud sync service, and fermata.run (including docs.fermata.run and the email updates you can subscribe to there). What each part collects is described in the Privacy Policy.
What Fermata Is
Fermata is a native macOS application that orchestrates Claude Code CLI sessions. It provides a visual interface for spawning, monitoring, and managing AI coding agents that run on your local machine.
Fermata is a tool for directing AI agents. It does not itself write, execute, or modify code. The Claude Code CLI, developed by Anthropic, performs all code generation and tool execution.
The iOS and Android companion apps let you watch runs and answer approvals from your phone. They work only once you pair a device and turn on cloud sync, and an approval you give from a phone carries exactly the same weight as one given on the Mac.
Your Responsibilities
- Review agent output. You are responsible for reviewing all code changes, tool executions, and file modifications made by AI agents through Fermata.
- Maintain backups. Fermata manages git worktrees and branches. While it isolates changes, you should maintain your own backups of important work.
- Claude Code CLI. You are responsible for installing, authenticating, and maintaining your own Claude Code CLI installation and Anthropic account. Fermata does not provide API access.
- Your paired devices. If you turn on cloud sync, you are responsible for the phones you pair and for unpairing a device you no longer control.
- Compliance. You are responsible for ensuring your use of AI coding agents complies with your organization's policies and applicable laws.
Changes and Compatibility
Fermata is actively developed. Features may change or be removed, and on-disk data formats (session files, piece files) may change between releases. We make no guarantees about uptime, stability, or fitness for a particular purpose.
Intellectual Property
Fermata is proprietary software owned by Kelios LLC. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or redistribute the application.
Code generated by AI agents through Fermata belongs to you, subject to Anthropic's terms for Claude Code output.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Kelios LLC shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of Fermata, including but not limited to:
- Code changes made by AI agents that cause bugs, data loss, or system issues
- Git operations (branch creation, merging, worktree management) that result in lost work
- Costs incurred from Claude Code API usage
- Interruption of your development workflow
- Unavailability or interruption of cloud sync, push notifications, or the companion apps
Fermata is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind.
Termination
You may stop using Fermata at any time by deleting the application. Deleting the app removes it from your Mac; your local project data stays where it is. Data we hold separately (a waitlist email address, crash and usage telemetry, and, if you enabled cloud sync, your synced session records) is described in the Privacy Policy, and you can request its deletion by emailing privacy@fermata.run.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms as Fermata evolves. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States.
