Read this before you install or run Personal Jarvis. This is experimental, autonomous software that can control your computer and act in the real world on your behalf. You use it entirely at your own risk.
1. What this software is
Personal Jarvis is a free, open-source project released under the MIT License. It is a voice-driven meta-orchestrator: it dispatches your spoken or typed commands to autonomous AI agents and tools (such as Claude Code, Codex, MCP servers and command-line tools) that run on your own machine, under your own API keys, at your own cost.
It is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. There is no guarantee that it works, is correct, is secure, or is fit for any purpose. Features may be incomplete, change without notice, or fail.
2. It is autonomous — and that is risky
Personal Jarvis is an agentic system. Depending on how you configure it and which tools you connect, it can take real, consequential, and sometimes irreversible actions on your behalf, including but not limited to:
- running shell commands and scripts, installing software, and modifying or deleting files;
- controlling your mouse, keyboard, and applications (computer-use);
- sending messages, emails, or posts on your behalf;
- making purchases, bookings, or other transactions that cost real money;
- incurring API and service charges with the AI providers and third-party services you connect.
AI models can make mistakes, “hallucinate”, misinterpret instructions, or behave unpredictably. You are solely responsible for everything the software does on your machine and on your behalf, including any costs, data loss, damage, or third-party consequences that result.
3. It is for developers — review the code first
This software is intended for technically competent developers who understand what it does. Before you install or run it, you are expected to:
- read and review the source code and documentation on GitHub;
- understand the permissions, tools, and integrations you are enabling;
- run it in an environment and with safeguards (e.g. risk tiers, approvals, isolation) appropriate to the risk you are willing to accept; and
- keep backups of anything you cannot afford to lose.
By installing or running the software, you confirm that you have done so and that you accept the risks described here.
4. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the authors, contributors, and operators of Personal Jarvis shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages — including but not limited to data loss, system damage, lost profits, costs incurred, or charges, purchases, bookings, or transactions carried out by the software — arising out of or in connection with the software or its use, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such damage. This mirrors the warranty and liability disclaimer of the MIT License under which the software is distributed.
Mandatory law (Germany): nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where it may not be excluded by law — in particular for damages arising from injury to life, body, or health caused by a negligent breach of duty, for intent (Vorsatz) or gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit), or under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz). Since the software is provided free of charge, the statutory liability privilege for gratuitous provision (§ 521 BGB analogously) may further apply.
5. Third-party services
Personal Jarvis connects to third-party AI providers and tools (e.g. Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, OpenRouter, GitHub, and others) using credentials you supply. Your use of those services is governed by their terms and pricing. You are responsible for complying with them and for any fees they charge. We are not a party to, and accept no responsibility for, your relationship with those providers.
6. No professional advice
Output produced by or through the software is generated by AI systems and may be inaccurate or incomplete. It does not constitute legal, financial, medical, or other professional advice. Verify anything important before relying on it.
7. Changes
The software and these terms may change at any time. The license that governs your rights to the software itself is the MIT License included with the source code; in the event of any conflict regarding the software, that license controls.
8. Community marketplace
The Personal Jarvis marketplace lists plugins, skills and wallpapers submitted by third parties through an open registry hosted on GitHub. Listings pass automated checks only and are not reviewed by humans — the "not reviewed" badge means exactly that. We do not operate, endorse, or warrant any listed entry, the servers it connects to, or the commands it runs. Before installing, the app shows you where an entry sends data or what it executes; installing and using a community entry is entirely at your own risk, and your use of the underlying third-party service is governed by that provider's own terms. A karma figure counts votes. It is not a rating we give, not a review, and not a statement about a person.
If you publish to the marketplace, you confirm that you have the rights to everything you submit, that your submission contains no credentials or unlawful content, and that it may be published, distributed, and mirrored under the open license declared in your submission. You remain responsible for the endpoints and commands your listing points to. We may delist or block any entry that breaks these rules. When we remove something you submitted, we tell you what we removed and why, and you can contest that decision by replying to the message. Publishing, and commenting, also give you a public profile page in the marketplace carrying your username, your listings and a karma figure.
Wallpapers follow the same rule: an uploaded image is published automatically once it passes the automated checks, and nobody reviews the picture beforehand. By uploading a wallpaper you confirm that you created the image or hold the rights to publish it, that it is lawful to publish, and that it may be redistributed under the Creative Commons license you select. Images that are unlawful, infringing, hateful, or sexually explicit are not permitted; we delete them and may block the account that uploaded them. Publication is never an endorsement. Here too we say what we removed and why, to the account that uploaded the image.
Reporting: to report an entry or image that is malicious, infringing, hateful, or otherwise unlawful, email us at the address in the imprint or open an issue in the registry repository. We act on reports without undue delay, confirm that a report arrived, and say what we decided. Removal applies to the marketplace feed; copies already installed on a user's own device are outside our reach.
Point of contact (Art. 11 and 12 Digital Services Act): the email address in the imprint. It is the single point of contact for users and for authorities alike, and it is answered in German and English.
