Hi ShiYu and the Kronos team,

I am assessing Kronos-small for personal, non-commercial research into an own-account crypto spot trading strategy. I plan to run zero-shot inference locally on market data that I licence separately. I will not fine-tune the model, redistribute the artifacts, expose them to customers or use them in a commercial product under this research scope.

Before I acquire or install any model files, I need written clarification for these exact repositories and revisions:

• NeoQuasar/Kronos-small, revision 901c26c1332695a2a8f243eb2f37243a37bea320
• NeoQuasar/Kronos-Tokenizer-base, revision 0e0117387f39004a9016484a186a908917e22426
• Files in each repository: README.md, config.json and model.safetensors

Both model cards label the repositories as MIT and link to the MIT licence in shiyu-coder/Kronos. The exact Hugging Face trees do not contain a separate licence file or artifact-specific copyright notice. Could you please confirm each point below?

1. Do you or the relevant rights holder grant use of both exact config.json and model.safetensors artifacts under the MIT License?
2. Does the MIT text and copyright notice in shiyu-coder/Kronos/LICENSE govern both the Kronos-small and Kronos-Tokenizer-base artifacts above? If another rights holder or notice applies, please identify it.
3. Which licence text, copyright notice, attribution and citation must I retain with a local research copy?
4. Does the grant cover local retention, zero-shot inference on separately licensed market data, and internal retention of derived forecasts and evaluation results for the personal research scope described above?
5. Do the artifacts carry any additional restriction or require any separate permission related to their training data for this inference use?

A numbered response to points 1 through 5 would help me preserve the correct evidence and notices before installation.

Thank you,

Philip Cederman
