What licence scope should an agent developer clarify before starting?

Start with the intended use of the generated material. Training an internal agent, evaluating a hosted service and distributing a benchmark to external developers involve different activities. A buyer should describe those activities and ask which rights the proposed licence would cover.

Clarify whether the intended scope includes model training, fine-tuning, internal evaluation, contractor access and creation of derived task packs. If outputs will appear in a public demonstration or a downloadable product, ask separately about redistribution and publication. Access through a website or public MCP server should not be treated as evidence that every downstream use is permitted.

Also identify which artefacts your workflow will retain: source files, transformed records, prompts, evaluation traces or model checkpoints. Questions about retention and derived artefacts are easier to resolve when the intended development process is concrete.

These are matters to establish in the proposed licence, not assumptions about MirrorFirm's terms. A useful first step is a short use-case description listing users, processing activities and intended distribution. That gives the scope discussion a specific basis without inventing commercial conditions.
