TERMS · LICENSE & BOUNDARIES
The rules for quoting and using BitShovel, in the open.
This page explains reuse, corrections and service limits. Revised October 4, 2026 (public data access and service scope); the license and disclaimer remain unchanged. Changes to data handling are also reflected in the privacy notice.
01
LICENSE · CONTENT & DATA
Editorial copy and public data are CC BY 4.0.
The site's editorial content — articles, topics, cases and historical editorial summaries — plus the public data endpoints (information-pack.json, managed-objects.json, retired-signals.json, historical-signals.json) and the RSS feed are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0): copy, redistribute, adapt, and use commercially, as long as you credit “BitShovel (bitshovel.site)” with a link back.
Third-party source material is outside this license: every card's “view original” link points to the original source, whose rights remain with the original authors. Follow their terms when quoting them — our CC BY does not extend to their content.
The site code and the desktop app are not covered by this license and are governed separately.
02
DISCLAIMER
Information is provided as-is; attention is not endorsement.
Items include sources and available time records. Some remain leads for further review; completed editorial reviews state their date, scope and limits. Completeness, accuracy and timeliness are not guaranteed; assess original materials in your own context.
GitHub stars, discussion heat, and chart rankings reflect attention only — never an endorsement of a project's quality, security, or commercial viability; each card's main-limitation note states these boundaries explicitly.
03
CORRECTION & SERVICE
Corrections and current service scope.
Report factual errors or broken links to carywork08@163.com. Confirmed corrections receive a separate note and a traceable revision record.
There are no accounts or tracking SDKs. Saves, reading history, notes and custom items stay in this browser. Public data files retain their own records and available time fields; collection or check times do not establish an article publication or substantive update.

DATA · PUBLIC DATA
Available public data and feeds
These files require no account. They retain existing collection and management records, rather than a complete published-article directory or a live comprehensive model ranking. Check each file’s dates, status and sources. Retired and historical records remain for traceability, not as current recommendations. RSS follows new publications and substantive updates. The retired information-network workbench and public status page are no longer provided.
