# Sponsoring ECC
ECC is maintained as an open-source agent harness operating system across Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, Codex, Gemini, Zed, and other agent workflows.
## Why Sponsor
Sponsorship directly funds:
- Faster bug-fix and release cycles
- Cross-platform parity work across harnesses
- Public docs, skills, and reliability tooling that remain free for the community
## Sponsorship Tiers
These are practical public starting points. Sponsorship funds the public OSS layer and sponsor visibility, not private implementation work.
| Tier | Price | Best For | Includes |
|------|-------|----------|----------|
| Team Sponsor | $200/mo | Teams that want visible OSS support without README placement | Company name/logo/link in SPONSORS.md |
| Business Sponsor | $800/mo | Companies that want README sponsor visibility | Featured README sponsor area + SPONSORS.md listing + one sponsor-placement review |
| Strategic Sponsor | $3,700/mo | Ecosystem partners that want top placement and tighter coordination | Top README sponsor placement + SPONSORS.md listing + one 30-minute placement call + optional launch mention if the integration is genuinely useful |
No public tier includes seats, support SLA, custom development, a dedicated channel, or guaranteed case study unless separately agreed in writing.
## Sponsor Reporting
Metrics shared monthly can include:
- npm downloads (`ecc-universal`, `ecc-agentshield`)
- Repository adoption (stars, forks, contributors)
- GitHub App install trend
- Release cadence and reliability milestones
For exact command snippets and a repeatable pull process, see [`docs/business/metrics-and-sponsorship.md`](docs/business/metrics-and-sponsorship.md).
## Expectations and Scope
- Sponsorship supports maintenance and acceleration; it does not transfer project ownership.
- Feature requests are prioritized based on sponsor tier, ecosystem impact, and maintenance risk.
- Security and reliability fixes take precedence over net-new features.
