Platform Remix License (PRL)

Version 1.0 · Effective Date: August 20, 2026

This license is the sole default license for the entire RunAI template library (all entries under templates/ and games-ref/), applying identically to official and user templates. Publishing a template constitutes acceptance. Per-entry license selection is prohibited. Official entries are additionally dual-licensed under the MIT License. Any substantive change to these terms is versioned as a major release.

1. Copyright Retained

Template creators retain copyright in their templates. Publishing is a grant of rights, not a transfer.

2. Grant to the Platform

The creator grants the platform a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free right to host, display, package (including bundling into product images and static-domain distribution), and distribute the template, and to generate derived technical artifacts (indexes, thumbnails, checksums, statistics) for operational purposes.

3. Grant to Platform Users

The creator grants all platform users a non-exclusive right to view source, modify, remix, create derivative templates, and republish — within the platform.

4. Derivatives & Attribution

Derivative templates are automatically published under this license; no other license may be attached. Attribution is established by the machine-recorded derived_from lineage chain; in-code attribution comments are not required.

5. Consideration

The creator's consideration consists of: leaderboard exposure, lineage attribution, and — once the revenue-share switch is enabled — a share of revenue computed from actual usage-driven consumption (including multi-level micro-shares along the lineage chain). Enabling revenue share requires no re-acceptance of this license.

6. No Off-Platform Redistribution

The remix/republish rights granted herein exist only within the platform. Redistributing any template as a whole (or in substantial entirety) outside the platform is prohibited and constitutes breach and infringement.

7. Finished Games Belong to Users

A finished game created by a user from a template is not subject to this license: its copyright belongs to that user, portable and commercially usable. Only the act of publishing it back as a template brings that template under this license.

8. Asset Layering

The code layer is governed by this license; assets (audio/images/video etc.) are declared per-file in template.json license.assets[] (procedural / ai-generated / user-upload). Publishers are responsible for rights declarations on uploaded assets.

9. License Purity / Anti-Copyleft

No source code governed by GPL, LGPL, AGPL, or any other copyleft/viral license — nor derivatives thereof — may be introduced into any template. Publishers warrant their submissions are free of such material; violations result in takedown and full publisher liability.

10. Takedown & Remedies

The platform may take down entries violating Sections 6/8/9 or subject to substantiated infringement claims; downstream lineage entries do not automatically lapse, but infringing portions must be removed.

11. No Warranty

Templates are provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, express or implied.
