Licence, disclaimer & contact — AtelierBID
Licence, trademarks, what the plugin writes to your disk, privacy, and how to reach us.
AtelierBID is released under the MIT Licence, copyright © 2026 DATAXYZ CONNECT. This chapter is the plain-English version of what that means for you; the authoritative texts are LICENSE and NOTICE.md in the repository.
Licence#
MIT — provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, express or implied.
You may use it commercially, modify it, distribute it and use it privately. The only conditions are that the copyright notice and licence text travel with it. There is no obligation to publish your changes.
Trademarks & non-affiliation#
"Claude" and "Claude Code" are trademarks of Anthropic, PBC. "Power BI", "Microsoft Fabric" and "Copilot" are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation.
AtelierBID is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic or Microsoft. All other product names and trademarks are the property of their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only.
What it does to your disk#
Being specific about this matters more than a general disclaimer, because the plugin writes real files rather than previews.
| Where | What lands |
|---|---|
output/<run-id>/ | Generated artefacts and per-step checkpoints. Safe to delete. |
| Your project | Power BI Project files — PBIP, TMDL, PBIR, theme.json — when you point a skill at one. |
Two guardrails apply to anything that modifies an existing model:
- Dry-run first. Model-modifying operations preview a diff and require explicit confirmation before writing.
optimise-daxwill not apply a rewrite without--apply. - Ownership guard. The PBIR converter refuses to overwrite a file it did not write, identified by a sentinel in the PBIP settings. Hand-edited work is not silently destroyed.
Neither is a substitute for version control. Keep your project in git and review the diff.
Generated source is never executed#
author-sql.js writes reviewable SQL and never connects to a database. author-m.js never evaluates Power Query/M. DAX validation queries are emitted for you to run in Power BI Desktop or against an XMLA endpoint.
The plugin generates text for review. Validate it yourself before running it against production data.
Privacy & telemetry#
AtelierBID's scripts run entirely on your machine. They make no network calls and collect no telemetry or personal data. There is no backend, no account and no API key.
One honest caveat: a prototype generated by /AtelierBID:prototype-report is a standalone HTML file that loads the Chart.js library from a public CDN when you open it in a browser. That request is made by your browser rendering the output, not by the plugin, and it sends none of your data — but it is a network request, and you should know it happens. Generating every artefact, including IR → PBIR conversion, requires no network at all.
When you use the plugin through Claude Code, your interactions with Claude are governed by Anthropic's own terms and privacy policy, not by AtelierBID.
Contributing & security#
- Contributing — see
CONTRIBUTING.mdfor how to propose changes, and the constraints that matter: determinism, no runtime dependencies, emit-never-execute, ground-before-generate. - Security — see
SECURITY.mdfor responsible disclosure. Report privately to atelier@dataxyzconnect.com rather than opening a public issue.
