SCOPE AND CONTINUING RIGHTS

The standard licences govern their respective materials; the application
terms do not add restrictions to them. Grants are irrevocable for versions
published under them, subject to the applicable licence terms. Future changes
do not withdraw those grants. Earlier permissions remain available in the
dated terms archive: https://automationmodeler.com/terms.html#versions

Following documentation, creating a compatible tool or adapting starter data
does not impose attribution or a licence on your own blueprint content.
Users retain their rights in their own designs, notes and exports. Any
third-party material they include retains its existing rights.

MIT - BLUEPRINT LIBRARY

The blueprint library published at /blueprint.mjs (built from the app's
validation and design link modules, SPDX: MIT) may be used, copied, modified
and redistributed under the MIT licence: https://automationmodeler.com/licenses/MIT.txt.
It bundles Zod under its own MIT licence, listed in
https://automationmodeler.com/third-party-licenses.md. This licence covers the
published file, not the rest of the application source.

APPLICATION MATERIAL AND THIRD PARTIES

Application implementation, including the source that generates schemas and
starters, page markup, layout, styles and first-party artwork, remains under
the application terms (SPDX: LicenseRef-Automation-Modeler). HTML guides have
mixed notices: CC BY 4.0 covers documentation text only. It does not cover
their implementation, layout, logos or other artwork. Documentation images
retain their applicable rights; screenshots may be used under the app terms.
Other repository documents are not included unless separately marked.

No trademark or endorsement rights are granted by these licences. Truthful
compatibility statements, reviews and discovery remain welcome under the
terms. Third-party software, fonts and assets keep their own licences:
https://automationmodeler.com/third-party-licenses.md
https://automationmodeler.com/third-party-notices.txt

Strict JSON files use adjacent .license notices, keeping the JSON valid.
These notices label published materials, not user-created blueprint exports.
