Frequently Asked Questions
Is Krowcode really free?
Yes. Krowcode is fully open source under AGPL-3.0. All 9,200+ rules, the VS Code extension, CLI, MCP server, LSP, and self-hosted dashboard are included at no cost.
What does the commercial license include?
The commercial license removes the AGPL-3.0 copyleft requirement, allowing you to use Krowcode in proprietary products and internal tools without open-sourcing your code. It also includes priority support, SSO, and custom rule development.
Do I need a commercial license for internal use?
If you are only using Krowcode as a tool to analyze your code (not embedding it into a product you distribute), the AGPL-3.0 license allows this. The commercial license is primarily for organizations that embed Krowcode into proprietary software or need enterprise features like SSO.
Is my code sent to any server?
No. All core analysis runs 100% locally on your machine. The optional AI features (if enabled) send code snippets to your configured AI provider with explicit consent. The self-hosted dashboard stores data on your own infrastructure.
Can I sponsor the project?
Yes! You can support Krowcode development through Ko-fi at https://ko-fi.com/krowcode or reach out for sponsorship opportunities at krowcode@protonmail.com.
