Terms of Service

The software and its license

Coincide is open source under the MIT License. The license sets out your rights to use, copy, modify and distribute the code, and if these terms ever conflict with it about the software, the license wins. Components from other projects keep their own licenses, listed in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.

Official Mac builds are published on the repository’s GitHub Releases page. Builds from anyone else, including forks, aren’t ours. Once Coincide Remote is released, Apple’s terms also apply to downloading it from Apple.

Early software

Coincide is in early development. Expect bugs, rough edges and changes. Features may change, move or be removed, and we don’t promise any release schedule or ongoing support.

Your agents and their providers

Coincide doesn’t provide AI models or sell access to them. It drives the agent tools you install (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok Build, OpenCode and Antigravity) with your own sign-ins and API keys. You’re responsible for:

• your accounts and credentials with each provider;
• what you spend, and staying within your plans’ limits;
• following each provider’s terms and usage policies, including for automated or third-party use.

Providers can change their tools, plans or terms in ways that break Coincide or affect your account, and that’s outside our control. Usage figures Coincide shows are estimates and reports from the providers, not bills.

What agents do on your Mac

Agents in Coincide can run commands, create, change and delete files, use git (including commits, pushes and pull requests), use the browser in each thread, and, if you turn on Computer Use, operate other apps. In Full access mode they do this without asking first. Scheduled tasks send messages to agents on your behalf, and Keep Awake changes your Mac’s power settings.

You decide what agents may do and where. You’re responsible for reviewing their work, for what they do with your accounts and files, and for keeping backups. Use “Ask for approval” when you want to approve each command and file change.

Coincide Remote

A paired iPhone or iPad can control Coincide on that Mac, including sending messages to your agents. Pair only devices you control, and if one is lost, reset pairing in Coincide’s Remote settings.

Community rules

These rules apply on coincide.dev, in the Coincide Discord server and in the project’s spaces on GitHub, together with our Code of Conduct. Please don’t:

• harass, threaten, demean or discriminate against anyone, or post sexual or violent content;
• impersonate others, or share someone else’s personal information;
• spam, mass-mention, advertise without permission, or post scams such as fake “free Nitro” links;
• post malware, or API keys, tokens, cookies, passwords or private code, yours or anyone’s;
• try to break, overload or get around the limits of the website or Brulee, or use Brulee for anything but Coincide help and reports;
• break the law, or Discord’s Terms and Community Guidelines.

Moderation

Brulee removes spam it detects with fixed rules, such as mass mentions, the same message repeated in quick succession, or fake Nitro links. A first incident brings a 10-minute timeout, a second a 24-hour timeout, and a third a ban. Strikes reset after 30 days without a new one. Moderators may also remove content, time out or remove members for breaking these rules. To appeal, contact the server owner or email us.

Brulee, reports and AI answers

• Reports are public. /bug and /feature create public issues in the apoorvdarshan/coincide GitHub repository, with your report quoted unchanged and, when available, an AI-organized summary. Anyone can read them, and they may stay public. Submit only what you’re happy to publish and have the right to share.
• Limits. Reports share a wait that starts at 10 minutes, doubles with each further report up to a day, and resets after two days without one. /ask takes one question a minute.
• AI answers can be wrong. /ask answers are written by AI from a short description of Coincide. Brulee can’t see your Mac, accounts or logs, remember earlier questions or take actions. Check important answers against the README.
• Closed isn’t shipped. When an issue is closed, Brulee tells you, but that doesn’t mean a fix or feature is in a released version.
• Brulee may be unavailable, change or stop at any time.

Please report security vulnerabilities privately, as described in SECURITY.md, never through Brulee or a public issue.

Feedback and contributions

You’re welcome to send ideas and feedback, and we may use them freely without owing you anything. Code you contribute to the repository follows CONTRIBUTING.md and, as GitHub’s Terms of Service provide, is licensed under the repository’s MIT License.

Trademarks

Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok Build, OpenCode and Antigravity, and their logos, belong to their owners: Anthropic, OpenAI, Anysphere, xAI, SST and Google. Names and icons of browsers and password managers belong to their owners too, including Apple, Google, Microsoft, Mozilla, Brave, The Browser Company, Opera, Vivaldi, AgileBits (1Password) and Bitwarden. Coincide uses them only to identify the software it works with, and isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by any of them.

The MIT License covers Coincide’s code, not its name or logo. Forks are welcome; please don’t present a modified build as the official Coincide.

No warranty

Coincide, Coincide Remote, coincide.dev, the Discord community and Brulee are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We don’t promise that they’ll be error-free, secure, uninterrupted or compatible with any agent or provider.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Apoorv Darshan and Coincide’s contributors aren’t liable for any claim, damages or other liability, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, arising from or in connection with Coincide, the website, the community or Brulee, or their use. That includes lost or changed data or code, provider charges or account suspensions, and anything an agent does on your Mac or with your accounts. Some places don’t allow these limits, so they apply only as far as the law permits.

Other services

Your agents’ providers, Apple, Discord, GitHub, Google, Cloudflare and any other service you use with Coincide have their own terms. We don’t control them and aren’t responsible for them.

Changes and ending

We may update these terms. When we do, we’ll change the date at the top, and continuing to use Coincide, the website or the community after that means you accept the new terms. We may change or stop the website, the Discord server or Brulee, and may remove anyone who breaks these rules. None of this takes away the rights the MIT License gives you for copies of Coincide you already have.
