Rulings
4 questions resolved against the text.
Which tier applies?
Canopy. Packages and resells software built by others. Section 5.2 reporting applies; the Section 5.1 royalty attaches when the Licensee makes Production Use and only to attributable revenue.
Sections 1.8, 3.1, 5.1
Is anything owed?
0.5% of revenue attributable to products or services that depend on the Work, capped at $250,000 per year, plus a quarterly Canopy Report.
Sections 5.1, 5.2
Does this count as Production Use?
Yes. Wrapping or bundling the Work and commercializing the package as the product. Section 1.9 covers internal operation at operating scope and systems made available externally to customers or the public. Development, testing, evaluation, research, and personal non-revenue use remain outside it.
Sections 1.9
Is this a Competing Offering?
Yes if the value derives entirely or substantially from the Work itself. Section 4 applies to every Licensee, including Root. A larger independent product remains allowed, but selling, porting, repackaging, hosting, or redistributing the Work as the product requires a separate written agreement.
Sections 1.13, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3
Cautions
What this situation gets wrong most often.
Section 1.7 excludes an entity acting as a reseller or intermediary for a Legal Entity above the threshold from the Root tier, even where its own revenue is small.
Attribution lives in the package manifest under ORA 8.1, not only in documentation, because an agent package is installed by a machine that never reads a directory listing.

Other situations for this party.
Non-normative. Where this and the licence text disagree, the licence text applies.
