## Why Sponsor?

Your sponsorship directly funds:

- **OSS work that stays free** — the core repo, AgentShield, install scripts, and skills library remain MIT
- **Weekly releases** — full-time work on the harness, not a side project
- **Independent maintenance** — no acquisition pressure, no rug pulls, no enshittification
- **Sponsor-driven roadmap** — Pro+ sponsors vote on direction, Business+ get case studies and integration support

## Existing Sponsors Are Grandfathered

If you sponsored before May 2026, you keep your original perks at your original price. New tiers apply to new sponsors only.
