Acceptable Use Policy

Last updated: September 2026

Short version: build real software, on systems you're allowed to touch.

Intended use

VIBE is a development tool. Use it to understand, build, debug, refactor, and review software you are authorized to work on.

Not allowed

  • Creating malware, exploits for systems you do not own, or credential harvesting tools
  • Accessing repositories or systems without authorization
  • Generating content that is illegal, abusive, or infringes someone else's rights
  • Circumventing rate limits, quotas, or access controls
  • Reselling or reverse engineering the service

Sensitive data

Do not send secrets, personal data, or regulated data into prompts unless you have the right to process it and have reviewed your own compliance obligations.

Enforcement

We may limit or suspend access when we see clear abuse. Where practical we will explain what happened and how to resolve it.

Reporting abuse

Report misuse to [email protected] with enough detail for us to act.
