Licensing

Aeasy MCP Server uses CDKey licensing: one key binds one machine, and the term starts at first activation.

Activate

Paste your CDKey on the panel's "License" page → Activate. On success:

The MCP gateway and public tunnel are ready to start (see Quick Start);
The card shows your plan, expiry date and days remaining, with a warning as expiry approaches (7 days).

Before or after expiry, buy a new key and simply type it into the same input box — the renewal flow runs automatically:

Your license record stays the same; remaining time and the new card's term are stacked;
Renewing after expiry starts the new term from that moment;
The new card's tier (standard / mid / premium) sets your feature level after renewal.

No unbind needed, no extra steps.

One key binds one machine at a time. Three scenarios:

Scenario	What to do
New machine, old one still boots	On the old machine's panel click Unbind, then activate on the new machine
Old machine lost / OS reinstalled	Open the self-service unbind page (linked directly in the activation error), enter the CDKey to release the old device, then activate on the new machine. Once per 30 days per key
Key accidentally activated elsewhere	The panel shows "bound to another device" with a link to the unbind page

Unbinding preserves the remaining term — it never resets the clock.

Licensing is verified against a locally held signed token, not a live connection:

The service keeps working with no network; a 72-hour grace window starts when the token expires;
Refresh happens automatically once the network returns;
Past the grace window with no reachability, features lock while the panel and re-activation stay available.

A key has two dimensions:

Plan: duration — day / week / month / half-year / year / lifetime;
Tier: feature level — sets the minimum retained workspace routes on the public tunnel (standard 3, mid 5, premium 10).

Tiers only matter for multi-route public access; purely local use is unaffected.
