Data ownership & export

Leaving gridtrue is a first-class operation, not an escalation.

The boundary is explicit: you own your ledger, gridtrue operates the infrastructure that makes it addressable. The exit drill is documented on day one because it's the only honest way to run a Free tier.

What you own

  • The full ledger — every commit, attestation and policy decision ever made on your org.
  • The Git bytes — packfiles and LFS objects for every repo.
  • Your identities — the certs issued to your developers.
  • Any derived data — search indices are reprojections and can be rebuilt from the ledger.

Exit drill

bash
# Export the full ledger, bytes, and identity materials.
gridtrue export --org acme --out acme-ledger.tar.zst

# Verify the export (rehashes ledger + content store locally).
gridtrue export verify acme-ledger.tar.zst

# Remove the gridtrue remote from every local clone.
for repo in ~/src/*; do
  git -C "$repo" remote remove gridtrue 2>/dev/null || true
done
