Terms

Licence

Clootee is free and open-source software, licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0. The licence text ships in the package as LICENSE and governs your use, modification and redistribution of the software. Nothing on this page overrides it.

No warranty

As stated in the licence, the software is provided “as is”, without warranties or conditions of any kind. You run it on your own machine, at your own risk.

Please read this before you run it

Clootee runs the coding agent with permission prompts bypassed, so that tasks can run unattended. The practical consequence is direct:

Anyone who can open the Clootee web UI can run any command on that machine, as you.

• It listens on 127.0.0.1 only by default. Keep it that way, and never expose it to the public internet — use an SSH tunnel or a VPN if you need remote access.
• Set a strong access password on first launch. There is no default password.
• You are responsible for what the agent does to your files and to any system it can reach.

Third parties

Clootee installs and drives software published by others (Node.js, Git, Claude Code, Codex) and connects to model providers you choose. Your use of those is governed by their own terms, and any fees they charge are between you and them. Clootee itself costs nothing.
