Why Apache 2.0 for an AI agent tool?

Apache 2.0 is widely used for infrastructure and developer tooling. For projects like Akmon—local-first coding agents, automation glue, and integrations with other tools—it offers:

  • Clear redistribution terms when you ship Akmon inside containers, internal CLIs, or custom distributions.
  • Explicit patent grant language, which matters when you combine agent runtimes with proprietary stacks or enterprise policies.
  • Compatibility with many corporate open-source approval processes compared to more ambiguous or custom terms.

If you embed Akmon or ship derivative work, keep the LICENSE file and any required notices with your distribution, and follow the Apache 2.0 attribution requirements for modified files.
