Terms

The software

Kotoba is published under the MIT licence. You may use it, copy it, change it, merge it into something else, publish it, sublicense it, and sell it. The one condition is that the copyright notice and the permission notice travel with the software, in copies and in substantial portions of it.

It is provided as is, without warranty of any kind, and its authors are not liable for what it does or fails to do. The full text is in the LICENSE file of the repository, and that file is the authority where this page and it disagree.

Running it

On the default backend, commands that Kotoba runs are run on your own computer, with your permissions, after you approve them. Approving a command is your decision, and the consequences of a command you approved are yours. The documentation describes the approval gate, the dangerous-command rules, and what each backend does and does not isolate; read it before pointing her at anything you cannot afford to lose.

Third parties

Kotoba talks to services you configure. The model provider, the speech provider, and any MCP server you connect have their own terms, and your use of them is governed by those terms, not by this page. Live2D's terms apply to any Live2D model you load, and they include conditions that the MIT licence does not.

This website

The documentation on this site describes the software at the version shown in the header. It can be wrong and it can go out of date; where it is, the reports page is how to say so. Nothing here is advice you should rely on without reading the code it describes.

The text of the documentation may be quoted and reused with attribution. The illustrations of Kotoba are AI-generated images made for the project and are not part of the MIT-licensed code; ask before reusing them.

Changes

These terms may change. The version shown in the header is the one they describe.
