This policy applies to Orchard, including its optional AI features for worktree summaries, change explanations, commit messages, pull-request drafts and search. These features use your own ChatGPT account and are also subject to OpenAI’s applicable terms and policies.
Prohibited use
Do not use Orchard or its AI features to create, request or distribute:
- Pornographic or sexually explicit material, including NSFW text; any sexual content involving minors; or sexual exploitation.
- Content that promotes violence, abuse, harassment, threats, discrimination or other harm.
- Fraudulent or deceptive material, malicious software, or instructions intended to facilitate illegal activity or unauthorized access.
- Content that infringes others’ rights or exposes private information without authorization.
Review AI output
AI can make mistakes or produce inappropriate content. Review generated text before using or sharing it. If a response contains prohibited content, do not use or distribute it; report the issue to [email protected] without including secrets or sensitive repository content.
Orchard does not add a separate automated NSFW filter. OpenAI may apply its own safeguards and restrictions to requests made through your account. You are responsible for using the AI features and their output in accordance with this policy.
