Free tier	200 MB hard per package: 'NOTE: 200MB is the maximum size of a package on the Chocolatey Community Repository. The package must download larger tools from a vendor site or mirror, or if possible, create semi-embedded packages.' unit MB; metered on unstated
Price	none stated
Per-object cap	per-object-cap: 200 MB (200000000 bytes)
Retention	per-object-cap: 200 MB per .nupkg. retention: indefinite for moderated packages; unlisted packages remain downloadable
Egress	Free serving, but every package is human-moderated before publication (CPMR rule set, VirusTotal scanning).
Identity	institution derived from the record's prose, not from an identity field, and no signup was executed: emain downloadable. request-rate: push is rate-limited per API key; moderation queue is the real gate. registry
Limits	per-object-cap per-object-cap: 200 MB source per-object-cap: 200 MB per .nupkg. retention: indefinite for moderated packages; unlisted packages remain downloadable. request-rate: push is rate-limited per API key; moderation queue is the real gate.
Binding	per-object-cap the per-object cap sets the shard size and therefore the object count; it bounds the total more tightly than any headline quota
Interface	rest, rclone rest
Tooling	`choco push` (write, needs API key), `choco install/download` (read), NuGet v2 OData at community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. No rclone backend.
Composes with	unlimited packages x unlimited versions x 200 MB, but each package is virus-scanned and moderated. The 2 GB NuGet limitation means large content must be fetched at install time from elsewhere - which is the opposite of storage.
Reliability	200 MB plus mandatory malware scanning plus human moderation. Cannot hold large binaries at all - Chocolatey's own docs route >2 GB content to external hosting.
Notes	200 MB hard per package: 'NOTE: 200MB is the maximum size of a package on the Chocolatey Community Repository. The package must download larger tools from a vendor site or mirror, or if possible, create semi-embedded packages.'
Evidence rung	reported One page read moves it to documented.
Checked	2026-10-21 (inherited); stale on 2026-11-04
Parsed numbers	`$.limits[0].value` limit:per-object-cap 200.0 MB
