legal
Terms
Applies to argus-lab.tech and the self-service console at console.argus-lab.tech (including its MCP endpoint). Versioned in the public repository — material changes ship as ordinary commits, so the history of these terms is auditable.
1. What this service is
Argus Agent Test Lab runs pre-registered, black-box adversarial batteries against AI agents that move money — and against the payment rails and SDKs they rely on. The self-service console lets you register your own agent endpoint and run the same style of battery against it under a money-guard policy. Every verdict is an Ed25519-signed record chained to the hash of its predecessor in a public registry.
2. Open beta — nothing is charged
The console is in open beta: checkout is switched off and no payment method is collected. While the beta window lasts, you cannot be billed. Paid tiers go live only after the beta period closes, and prices are shown in the console before anything can be purchased.
3. Paid runs and refunds (after beta)
When billing switches on: engine quota is purchased up front, and every engine run is consumed from that quota before it starts. A run whose agent fails the canonical payment gate stops before the battery begins and is refunded in full (net cost 0). Runs that execute past the gate are non-refundable, except for infrastructure failures on our side, which are refunded automatically.
4. Consent and opt-out
The lab does not test services we do not have permission to test. Offline batteries run on 127.0.0.1 against adversarial stands and honest mock backends modeled from the vendor's own published contracts. No vendor-operated endpoint is touched without written authorization. Self-service engine runs go only to endpoints that the account owner registers.
If you believe a public record concerns your service and you object to it, contact us. Vendor responses are published with equal space next to any finding, and factual corrections ship as chained correction records — nothing in the registry is silently rewritten.
5. What a seal attests
A seal attests run validity and findings completeness — not the absence of bugs. Anyone can verify the whole chain from the public repository in one command; verification instructions live in the repository README.
6. Acceptable use
Use the console only against endpoints you own or are authorized to test. Do not register third-party endpoints without their permission. Do not use the lab to attack, defraud or harass anyone.
7. No warranty; liability
The service and all records are provided "as is". Verdicts are evidence, not advice or certification. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the lab's liability for the self-service console is limited to the fees you actually paid for the affected run quota. For commissioned engagements, the signed written scope prevails over this page.
8. Contact and changes
