Alyn terms of service. Kept short.

1What Alyn is

Alyn is a free directory and ranking of AI agent skills, with a website, a command line tool (alyn-cli) and an MCP server. By using any of them you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use Alyn.

Alyn is free. There is nothing to buy right now. If we ever add paid features, they will come with their own clear terms before you pay anything.

2Skills are made by others

Almost every skill listed on Alyn is made and owned by its authors and hosted on GitHub or elsewhere. Alyn indexes public information about them, links to them and shows how to install them. We do not own them and we do not review every line of every skill.

Skills can contain instructions and scripts that your agent runs with your permissions. Read a skill before you install it, especially its scripts, and only install what you trust. Rankings, scores and badges are opinions to help you choose, not a security check or a guarantee.

Each skill keeps its own license. Respect it when you use, copy or share a skill.

3Your account

• You need to be at least 16 to create an account.
• Keep your sign-in secure. You are responsible for what happens in your account.
• One person, one account. Do not create accounts to boost likes, installs or rankings.
• You can delete your account at any time in your settings.

4What you publish

Playlists, Curator pages, links and skill submissions stay yours. By publishing them on Alyn, you give us a worldwide, free license to host, show, share and promote them as part of Alyn, for as long as they are published. You can remove them at any time.

Only submit skills you have the right to share, and only add links to sites you are allowed to link to.

5House rules

Please do not:

• Submit or promote malware, skills that hide what they do, or anything meant to harm the people who install it.
• Spam, manipulate rankings, fake installs or likes, or use bots against the site, the API or the MCP server.
• Pretend to be someone else, or post content that is illegal, hateful or infringes someone's rights.
• Scrape Alyn at a scale that slows it down for others. The public API, llms.txt and MCP are there for you to use fairly.

6Curator pages and website links

Curator pages are free. A link to your website starts as a regular link and may become a followed link after we review it. We decide which links we follow, and we can change or remove links, badges or pages that break these terms or look like spam.

7For skill authors

If you made a skill and want a listing changed or removed, or think something on Alyn infringes your rights, open a request through the contact link below and we will look at it quickly.

8Open source parts

The Alyn CLI and some example skills are open source. Their own licenses in the public repository apply to that code. These terms apply to the hosted website, API and MCP server.

9No warranty

Alyn is provided as is and as available. We work hard to keep the data right and the service running, but we cannot promise that rankings, numbers or descriptions are always correct, complete or up to date, or that Alyn is always available.

10Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, lost data or lost profits, or for anything caused by third-party skills you install. Since Alyn is free, our total liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as for intent or gross negligence, or your rights as a consumer under mandatory law.

11Ending things

You can stop using Alyn and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or remove accounts or content that break these terms, and we may change or stop parts of the service.

12Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top always shows the latest version. If a change is important, we tell signed-in users before it takes effect. Using Alyn after that means you accept the new terms.
