Gordon usage and limits
Gordon is available with all Docker subscriptions. Usage limits apply based on your subscription tier to ensure fair resource allocation.
Usage limits by subscription
Usage limits increase with higher subscription tiers:
| Subscription | Usage Multiplier | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Personal | 1x (baseline) | Standard usage for personal projects |
| Pro | 3x | Three times Personal tier usage |
| Team | 3x | Three times Personal tier usage |
| Business | 6x | Six times Personal tier usage |
NoteLimits are per user, not per organization for Team and Business subscriptions. Team provides the same multiplier as Pro (3x), but limits apply per individual user rather than being shared across the organization.
How usage is measured
Gordon usage is activity-based. Each interaction consumes resources based on the complexity of your request and the work Gordon performs. Simple queries use less than complex multi-step tasks.
What happens when you reach a limit
As you approach your usage limit, a message appears near the chat input prompting you to upgrade your subscription.
When you reach your usage limit, Gordon becomes unavailable until the limit resets. The interface displays when the limit will reset and suggests upgrading your subscription for higher limits.
Fair use policy
Usage limits are designed for typical development workflows. Gordon is intended for:
- Active development and debugging
- Learning Docker concepts
- Optimizing Docker configurations
- Troubleshooting issues
Automated scripting or excessive programmatic access may be subject to additional restrictions.
