Direct dependency licenses

Every production, build, development, test, documentation, security, and GitHub Actions dependency must permit no-fee commercial and non-commercial use, modification, and redistribution. Reciprocal licenses require a separate explicit project decision.

The machine-checked inventory is stored in config/dependency-licenses.toml. just licenses fails if a direct dependency is missing from the inventory, a stale record remains, or a recorded license is outside the approved set.

Approved licenses currently used by direct dependencies are:

  • Apache-2.0
  • Apache-2.0 OR MIT
  • BSD-2-Clause
  • BSD-3-Clause
  • MIT
  • MIT-CMU
  • PSF-2.0
