Terms of Service

SiteCMD is operated by Brambleworks LLC, referred to here as "we" and "us". These terms govern your use of SiteCMD-operated hosted services, founder-beta access, commercial intelligence catalogs, existing subscriptions, and this website. By using those services, you agree to these terms.

What SiteCMD is

SiteCMD is a local-first website command center. It combines built-in website and source-code checks with integrations to third-party services, then organizes those signals into a desktop workflow for understanding what changed, what matters, and what to do next.

License

The SiteCMD software is made available under the Apache License 2.0. That license governs your rights to use, inspect, modify, and redistribute the open-source software. The source, including the license text, is published at github.com/brambleworks/SiteCMD.

These terms govern hosted services, commercial intelligence catalogs, and subscriptions, and do not restrict rights granted by an applicable open-source license. The complete local workbench is available under its open-source license without a paid feature gate.

Your data

SiteCMD is local-first. Scan results, project data, and configuration are stored in a SQLite database on your machine. Integration credentials (API keys for GA4, Cloudflare, GitHub, etc.) are stored in your operating system's keychain, never in the database.

We do not have access to your source code or your integration credentials. We do not have access to your scan results or the websites you scan either, unless you connect a site to the connected service, which is off until you set it up. Our Privacy Policy lists exactly what a connected site sends.

Third-party integrations

SiteCMD connects to third-party services (Google Analytics, Cloudflare, GitHub, Jira, UptimeRobot, Plausible, Search Console, Bing, PageSpeed Insights) using credentials you provide. These connections are made directly from your machine to the third-party service. We do not proxy, intercept, or store the data returned by these services beyond what SiteCMD caches locally for your use.

Your use of third-party services through SiteCMD is subject to those services' own terms.

Scanning and checks

SiteCMD performs automated HTTP requests and HTML analysis against URLs you provide. You are responsible for ensuring you have permission to scan any URL you enter. Do not use SiteCMD to scan websites you do not own or operate without explicit written authorization from the owner.

Scan results are informational. SiteCMD identifies potential issues based on deterministic rules, but does not guarantee that fixing all reported issues will make your site secure, compliant, or performant. You are responsible for evaluating and acting on scan results.

MCP server

The MCP server runs locally on your machine and exposes complete local scan results and fix context to AI coding tools you configure. It does not transmit your scan data to our servers.

Founder beta, payments, and subscriptions

Connected-service access is comped during the founder beta. The future billable unit is a connected production site, with flat bundles and no metered overages intended. Public prices and included quantities are not set until the founder-beta pricing pass.

Existing subscriptions are processed through LemonSqueezy and remain governed by the terms shown when they were purchased. Existing subscribers can cancel through the SiteCMD app or the SiteCMD billing portal to stop future renewals. Any future paid offering will state its price, allowance, renewal terms, and refund terms before purchase.

Updates

SiteCMD may check for updates and notify you when new versions are available. You are not required to update, but older versions may not include the latest checks or security fixes.

Limitation of liability

SiteCMD is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. We are not liable for any damages arising from your use of SiteCMD, including but not limited to: data loss, security breaches on your websites, downtime, or inaccurate scan results. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for SiteCMD in the 12 months preceding the claim.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. Material changes will be communicated through the application or via email if you've subscribed to our mailing list. Continued use of SiteCMD after changes constitutes acceptance.
