AE MCP Claude Personal Use License

Copyright (c) 2026 Nutshell Agency. All rights reserved, except as granted below.

This license covers AE MCP Claude ("the Software"): the After Effects panel, the server, the
installers, the documentation and everything else in this repository or in a download from the
official website, from version 0.6.0 on.

1. Your license
   You may download, install and use the Software for yourself, on computers you own or use, for
   free. Each license belongs to one person and is tied to the email address you sign up with on
   the official website. The Software may ask you to sign in and may limit how many computers one
   license can be active on.

2. What you make is yours
   You may use what you create with the Software (projects, renders, videos, images and other
   output) for any purpose, including commercial work. We claim no rights in it. You are
   responsible for having the rights to what you put in (footage, music, fonts, references,
   stock media) and for following the terms of the AI and media services you use.

3. What you may not do
   - Share, sell, rent, lend, publish or otherwise give copies of the Software to anyone else, or
     put it on another website, file host, store or package registry. Point people to the
     official website or repository instead, where they get their own license.
   - Share your account, keys or sign-in with other people, or use one license for a team or a
     class. Each person needs their own (it is free).
   - Offer the Software, or a service built mainly on it, to others (for example as a hosted
     service or a reseller of credits).
   - Remove or change this license or the copyright notices, or get around sign-in, activation,
     update or usage limits.
   You may change the Software for your own use on your own computers, but you may not
   distribute your changes.

4. Paid services
   Credits and subscriptions bought on the official website are covered by the terms shown
   there. They are for the account that bought them.

5. Contributions
   If you send us changes (for example a pull request), you agree that we may use, change and
   distribute them under this or any other license.

6. Other software
   Parts of the Software come from others and keep their own licenses; see
   THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md. Nothing here limits your rights under those licenses.

7. Earlier versions
   Versions before 0.6.0 were published under the MIT License. Copies of those versions you
   already received keep that license. This license applies to 0.6.0 and later.

8. Ending
   This license ends automatically if you break it. When it ends, stop using the Software and
   delete your copies. Sections 2, 7 and 9 stay in force.

9. No warranty
   THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING
   BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND
   NONINFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM,
   DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM,
   OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE.
