Licensor: Aaron Levin, doing business as A-27 Strategy (a trade name registered in Maryland) ("we," "us," "A-27").
Product: the Chief-of-Staff Kit (the "Kit"), a configuration layer for Anthropic's Claude Code consisting of PowerShell scripts, Markdown files, templates, and documentation, delivered as a downloadable archive with a license key.
This agreement is between you and Aaron Levin, doing business as A-27 Strategy (a trade name registered in Maryland). By purchasing, subscribing to, downloading, installing, or using the Kit, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the Kit.
We have tried to write this in plain English. The numbered sections below are the operative terms.
The Kit is licensed, not sold. Aaron Levin, doing business as A-27 Strategy (a trade name registered in Maryland) owns the Kit and licenses it to you on the terms below. "You" means the individual subscriber or purchaser, or, for a key issued for someone else (a comped key or a key bought as part of a team purchase), the single named individual the key was issued to (the "Named User").
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to:
Everything in this section is for your own internal use. Your right to modify does not include a right to share, publish, or distribute the Kit or your modified versions of it (see Section 4).
Each license key covers one person: the subscriber, or the Named User for comped and team keys. You may install and run the Kit on multiple machines you personally use (e.g. a desktop and a laptop). You may not share your key, and a single key may not be used by more than one person. A team that wants the Kit buys one key per person.
You may not, and may not help anyone else to:
To be clear about the boundary: quoting brief excerpts in a review, a social post, or an internal discussion is fine. Reproducing the Kit, or enough of it that someone no longer needs to buy it, is not.
License keys, subscriptions, and payments are handled through Polar.sh, which acts as the merchant of record. All purchases and subscription payments, including automatic renewals, are final and non-refundable, except where a refund is required by Polar's terms or by applicable law. Your payment terms, invoicing, taxes, automatic-renewal billing, and cancellation for the transaction are governed by Polar's terms, not this agreement. You manage and cancel your subscription through Polar.
We may revoke a license key for breach of this agreement — for example, redistributing the Kit or sharing a key. Where practicable, we will contact you before revoking a key. A revoked key stops validating for updates. If your license is terminated for breach (Section 9), your rights under Section 2 end as well.
We decide what updates to build and when (or whether) to release them. This agreement does not promise any particular update, feature, frequency, or compatibility timeline, and it does not include support, consulting, or response-time commitments.
We retain all right, title, and interest in the Kit, including modified versions of it (except for the third-party components described in Section 8, which belong to their respective owners). You own your own data and any original content you create while using the Kit. Modifications you make to the Kit are yours to use under your license, but they do not give you ownership of the Kit and they remain subject to Section 4.
The Kit bundles certain third-party content distributed under its own licenses (for example, MIT-licensed components). These are listed in the THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.md file included with the Kit. Those components are governed by their own licenses, not by this agreement, and nothing in this agreement restricts rights those licenses grant you.
This license continues until terminated. We may terminate it if you breach this agreement (most relevantly: redistribution or key sharing) — in that case your key may be revoked and your rights under Section 2 end, and you must stop using the Kit and delete your copies. You may terminate at any time by cancelling your subscription and deleting your copies. Sections 7, 8, 10, 11, and 12 survive termination.
Note the difference between an ended subscription (Section 6: your installed Kit keeps working) and termination for breach (this section: your right to use the Kit ends).
Claude Code dependency. The Kit is a configuration layer for Anthropic's Claude Code. Claude Code requires its own subscription and is governed by Anthropic's own terms; neither is included with the Kit. The Kit is an independent product: it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or supported by Anthropic. The Kit's functionality depends on Claude Code continuing to behave as it does today; Anthropic may change Claude Code at any time, and we do not guarantee the Kit will continue to work with future Claude Code versions, models, pricing, or policies.
No warranty. The Kit is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Kit is error-free, that it will meet your requirements, or that it will work with your environment or with any version of Claude Code. You are responsible for reviewing what the Kit does (its source is visible for exactly this reason) and for your own backups and security.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions; in those jurisdictions the above applies to the maximum extent permitted by law.
To the maximum extent permitted by law: (a) neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or business interruption, even if advised of the possibility; and (b) our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Kit or this agreement is capped at the amount you paid for your license in the twelve months before the claim.
Nothing in this agreement limits rights that applicable law does not permit to be limited.
This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The state and federal courts sitting in Maryland have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to this agreement, and both parties consent to venue there.
