Terms of Service

These terms govern access to SlopCop and the repository investigation features available through the web application.

Last updated: May 8, 2026

Using SlopCop

You may use SlopCop only for repositories and scan targets that you are authorized to inspect. You are responsible for ensuring that your use complies with your employer policies, repository owner rules, platform terms, and applicable law.

You must not use SlopCop to attack, overload, disrupt, reverse engineer, or misuse the service, its infrastructure, GitHub integrations, or connected analysis providers.

Public and Private Repositories

Public scans may be created from GitHub HTTPS repository URLs and may produce shareable result URLs. Do not submit repositories if you are not comfortable with SlopCop processing their contents and metadata.

Private scans require GitHub App authorization. By starting a private scan, you represent that you have the right to grant SlopCop temporary access to that repository for analysis.

Reports and Findings

SlopCop reports are code quality and maintainability analysis outputs. They may contain incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, or context-dependent findings. You are responsible for reviewing the evidence before making engineering, business, compliance, or security decisions.

SlopCop is not a substitute for professional legal advice, security review, compliance audit, incident response, or human code review. Findings should be treated as investigative leads, not final determinations.

Publishing

If you publish a scan to Most Wanted, you authorize SlopCop to display the related case information publicly. Published information may include repository identity, scores, verdicts, report excerpts, file paths, code references, and other scan-derived details.

You are responsible for confirming that the published content does not expose confidential, proprietary, regulated, or personal information that you are not allowed to share.

Accounts and Access

You are responsible for the GitHub account, browser session, and installation permissions used with SlopCop. Notify the service operator if you believe your account or a scan URL has been misused.

We may suspend or restrict access to protect the service, comply with law, address abuse, or prevent unauthorized repository access.

Availability and Changes

SlopCop is provided on an as-available basis. Features, routes, scan engines, retention behavior, pricing, and publishing behavior may change as the product evolves.

We may update these terms by posting a revised version. Continued use of SlopCop after an update means you accept the updated terms.

Disclaimers and Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SlopCop is provided without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including warranties of accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted operation.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SlopCop and its operators will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, repository exposure, or business interruption arising from use of the service.
