Community Guidelines
The Forge lets anyone on the Pro plan build skills and share them with every Carae user. That only works if the community stays trustworthy. These guidelines apply to everyone who publishes or uses community skills, and they sit alongside the Terms of Service, which take precedence if anything here differs.
The spirit
Build things that are useful and honest. Describe what your skill does accurately, do what the description says, and treat other people's data the way you want yours treated. A well-run community is one of Carae's best features; help keep it that way.
Not allowed
Skills must not:
- Mislead or deceive: hidden behaviour, false descriptions, or skills that do something other than what they claim.
- Harvest or exfiltrate data: attempting to collect, store or send other users' information anywhere it should not go.
- Attack the assistant: prompt-injection tricks, attempts to bypass safety rules, or instructions designed to make Carae misbehave.
- Break the law: illegal content or skills that facilitate illegal activity.
- Impersonate: pretending to be Carae, another user, or any person or brand.
- Spam or harass: skills built to annoy, flood or target people.
- Infringe: content you do not have the right to use.
How enforcement works
Every submitted skill goes through a two-stage review before publication: two independent AI reviewers, with anything unclear escalated to a human queue. After publication:
- Any user can report a skill from its detail page.
- Repeated reports suspend a skill automatically while it is re-reviewed.
- Carae can remove or suspend any community skill at any time under the Terms.
- Serious or repeated violations can lead to account-level consequences under the Terms.
Reporting a skill
If a skill looks wrong, report it from its detail page in the community skills catalogue. Reports are not shown to the skill's author, and they feed directly into the review process: repeated reports suspend a skill automatically.
For skill authors
Your display name appears publicly on skills you publish, and you are responsible for what your skill does. Read your own description the way a stranger would; if the description and the behaviour match and you would happily install it yourself, you are almost certainly within these guidelines.
