# NOTICE OTKO Copyright © 2026 Ozan and contributors. ## OTKO license OTKO's own source code is licensed under the **GNU Affero General Public License v3.0** (AGPL-3.0). The full text is in [`LICENSE`](LICENSE). This `NOTICE` file does not replace or modify that license; where the two disagree, `LICENSE` governs. OTKO is **not** an MIT-licensed project. Portions of the codebase were ported or adapted from an earlier, MIT-licensed prototype called `otko-development`, so the original MIT notice is reproduced below as required by that license. ## Ported / adapted code: `otko-development` Portions of OTKO were ported or adapted from the `otko-development` project, which is distributed under the MIT License. The MIT copyright and permission notice is reproduced verbatim below: ``` MIT License Copyright (c) 2026 OTKO contributors Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

In accordance with GPLv3 §5(a)/(b) this notice records that the material was modified and adapted for OTKO. Combining the GPLv3-covered material with OTKO's AGPL-3.0 code is permitted by GPLv3 §13; the combined work is conveyed under AGPL-3.0, and the GPLv3 terms continue to apply to the opstool-derived portions. ## Runtime dependencies OTKO depends on third-party software that is not covered by OTKO's AGPL-3.0 license. Each component remains under its own license, and its license text ships with the corresponding package. The notes below are a summary for attribution, not a substitute for those license texts. - **OpenSees / OpenSeesPy** — the finite-element solver invoked by `otko.services.opensees_runner`. OpenSees is copyright The Regents of the University of California and is distributed under a BSD-style license; the notice is shipped inside the `openseespy` package. - **PySide6** — the Qt 6 bindings used by the desktop GUI. PySide6 is available under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3 (LGPLv3) or a commercial license. OTKO links against it dynamically, which keeps the LGPL relinking obligation satisfiable for redistributors. - **numpy**, **pydantic**, **h5py**, **pyvista**, **VTK**, **pyqtgraph**, and **imageio** — each is distributed under its own license (for example BSD-3-Clause, MIT, and similar permissive terms). See the license file bundled with each installed package for the exact terms. When redistributing OTKO, keep `LICENSE`, this `NOTICE`, and the license notices of the dependencies above.
