Unsere Software steht unter Apache-2.0. Unsere eigenen Skill-Landschaften und Lerninhalte stehen unter CC BY 4.0. Fremde Inhalte behalten ihre eigenen Bedingungen.
This is the binding project rule, not a choice between two licenses for the same material. It grants the rights that exist and that SkillPilot or the contributing rights holders are entitled to license; it does not create copyright in facts or other unprotected material.
| Our own material | License |
|---|---|
| Software, plugins, scripts, tests, configuration, technical schemas and interface definitions | Apache-2.0 |
| Developer/operational documentation, functional coach instructions for workflow/tool control, reusable source-code examples (also inside documents) | Apache-2.0 |
| Skill landscapes: curriculum data, skill graphs, learning-goal texts, graph relationships, views and subject-matter mappings | CC-BY-4.0 |
| Educational content: explanations, exercises, assessments, memory cards, didactic images/diagrams/comics/audio and other learning media | CC-BY-4.0 |
| Whitepapers and educational documentation; our selection, arrangement and annotations of resource-link collections | CC-BY-4.0 |
The full texts are Apache License, Version 2.0 and Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International. The identifiers above are the SPDX license expressions used in new metadata. Allocation follows the material's function, not its file extension: a JSON schema is technical infrastructure; a JSON skill landscape is content. Educational material passed to the coach remains content, not software.
The content grant includes our rights in individual contributions, selection and arrangement, and any applicable sui generis database rights. We introduce no additional database license, CC0 default or general dual licensing. Both licenses allow commercial reuse subject to their terms; they do not require recipients to publish their own improvements. This is not a promise of compatibility with every other license or partner's import policy.
For project-owned contributions, the licensor is enpasos - Enterprise Patterns & Solutions GmbH; contributors license the rights they retain in their own contributions. Preserve the supplied author, copyright, source and other applicable notices; the SkillPilot name does not replace individual credits or third-party attribution.
For content reuse, this is a suggested starting point, not an extra condition:
SkillPilot — [content title, version/date and source link], CC BY 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). Changes: [describe changes, if any]. Additional supplied credits and notices: [retain as applicable].
CC BY 4.0 permits attribution in a reasonable manner suited to the medium and context, including links to the required information. A suitable consolidated credits/source page can serve a collection; we do not demand a notice beside every learning goal. Retain supplied notices, identify modifications and include the license link or text. Software redistribution follows Apache-2.0, including its license-text, applicable notice and modification requirements. Neither license is a warranty of correctness or suitability.
- Dependencies, fonts, imported media, official curricula, retained source files and quotations keep their own rights and conditions. A source citation does not by itself authorize redistribution. Their presence in the repository does not make them SkillPilot-owned.
- Linked books, videos, simulations and services retain the actual provider's conditions. Curating a link licenses our contribution, not its destination; compiler and content provider are distinct roles.
- Mixed material must identify third-party portions and their conditions. Unclear origin must not silently become an own-work license declaration. The two-license rule does not clear unresolved rights in an entire artifact.
AI-generatedandSkillPilot-curateddescribe provenance, not licenses or proof of ownership. Our applicable license covers only rights we can grant; neither AI use nor review guarantees copyright or freedom from third-party rights. Source evidence and quality review remain separate.- Names, logos and trademarks are not licensed for unrestricted use by this policy. Private learner/session/chat data, credentials and user uploads are outside this public grant. Hosted-service and AI-account terms are separate.
Use these defaults automatically for clearly attributable own material. Document genuine exceptions where they occur; do not introduce a manual license approval for each learning goal, a learner consent step, or a new claim that every fact or AI image is protected. Rights/source checks for third-party or unclear material and existing quality gates remain independent.
Exports carry the applicable license text, this scope notice and the relevant attribution/source/change notices, including for subsets. Technical exporters must not relabel a mixed package as wholly Apache-2.0 or wholly CC-BY-4.0, and license metadata must not fabricate redistribution clearance.
Contributions follow the license for their area. Contributors must be entitled to grant those rights and identify included third-party material, as explained in CONTRIBUTING.md. Payment for commissioned work alone is not evidence of sufficient licensing rights.
