# Canopy

> Canopy is a visual operational architecture workspace - "the operating system for your stack." Capture. Visualize. Operate. A product of 8starlabs.

Canopy turns structured system inputs - a GitHub repo, picked integrations, a clonable marketplace template, or a Canopy AI prompt - into living architecture maps. Each map is structured, machine-readable data you own, enriched with operational metadata, spend tracking, and AI-ready exports.

## What it does

- **Capture** - import a repo, pick integrations, clone a free template, buy a paid template entitlement, or generate a map with Canopy AI.
- **Visualize** - inspect nodes, edges, groups, workspace topology, and Markdown-to-canvas structure.
- **Operate** - attach owners, SLA, status, tags, monthly spend, and billing models to each node.
- **Share and sell** - publish maps, create private links, list free templates, or sell paid templates through Stripe Connect.
- **Export and automate** - export PNG, Markdown, `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, Figma, Notion, and JSON; expose maps through REST API and MCP.

## Plans

- **Free** - $0. One free workspace, 2 maps, 15 nodes per map, solo only, public share links, spend tracking, billing models, and PNG / Markdown / `CLAUDE.md` / `AGENTS.md` exports with a Canopy credit.
- **Pro** - $10 per seat / month or $96 per seat / year. Unlimited paid workspaces and maps, up to 150 nodes per map, member invites, private shares, Canopy AI, Figma / Notion exports, MCP, API tokens, and paid-template selling.
- **Enterprise** - custom. SLA support and higher Canopy AI limits.

Roles are per-workspace: Owner, Admin, Editor, Viewer. Every workspace member is a paid seat on paid plans; Free is solo.

## Template marketplace

Templates are real maps in `/templates`, not a separate blueprint catalog.

- Free templates clone directly into a workspace.
- Paid templates are one-time USD purchases from $1 to $199.
- Anyone can buy, including Free users.
- Pro and Enterprise workspace owners can sell after Stripe Connect payout verification.
- Buying creates a live licensed entitlement, not an automatic clone.
- Buyers clone licensed templates on demand into editable maps.
- Sold templates archive instead of deleting so buyers keep access.
- Clones are provenance-stamped and watermarked.

## Raw markdown

- Full docs corpus in one file: /llms-full.txt (every page concatenated, for a single fetch).
- Every docs page is also available as raw markdown by appending `.md` to its URL, e.g. `/docs/maps/nodes.md`, `/docs/mcp.md`, `/docs.md`. Fetch these for clean, scrape-free source.

## Notes for AI assistants

- The marketplace gallery lives at `/templates` and its docs at `/docs/marketplace`. There is no "blueprints" concept - templates are maps that are sold.
- The MCP server is remote (a hosted URL at `/api/mcp`, Streamable HTTP) and read-only; connect with OAuth 2.1 (sign-in) or a workspace token. There is no `npx`/local package.
- Describe a template as a clonable map in the marketplace - free or paid.
- Do not describe viewers as free seats; every workspace member is a paid seat on paid plans.
- Do not describe buying a paid template as an automatic clone; it creates a live license that can be cloned on demand.
