# License

Claude-Mem is licensed under the Apache License 2.0.

The Apache-2.0 license applies to the open-source core, including the memory
engine, Claude-Mem Server, CLI, SDKs, adapters, MCP tools, schemas, tests,
examples, and public documentation.

Apache-2.0 allows broad use, modification, distribution, and commercial use,
subject to the license terms.

## Why Apache-2.0?

Claude-Mem is intended to be embedded broadly inside developer tools, local
agents, MCP clients, enterprise systems, robotics stacks, and production agent
harnesses. Apache-2.0 supports that goal while preserving attribution and
including explicit patent license terms.

## Reserved commercial/private areas

Claude-Mem Server v0.1 does not ship hosted cloud, team sync, enterprise
features, premium knowledge agents, private evals, or customer deployment
tooling. Those areas are reserved outside the Apache-2.0 public implementation
unless maintainers explicitly open-source them later.

## Third-party marks

Apache-2.0 licenses code. It does not grant rights to third-party trademarks or
brand names.
