Licensing for Agents
Agents that read, fork, transform, or bundle code must respect the license on every dependency they touch.
Permissive â use freely, keep attribution
MITApache-2.0BSD-2/3ISC
Copyleft â derivatives must stay open
GPL-2.0GPL-3.0AGPL-3.0MPL-2.0
Weak copyleft â link freely, share changes to lib
LGPL-2.1LGPL-3.0EPL-2.0
Key rules for agents:
- 1. Always check LICENSE before using code
- 2. AGPL triggers on network use â serving AGPL code over an API requires source disclosure
- 3. Copyleft is viral â one GPL dep can relicense your entire output
- 4. Attribution is non-optional â MIT/Apache require copyright notice in distributions
- 5. Patent grants differ â Apache-2.0 grants patents, MIT does not
- 6. No license = all rights reserved â don't assume public repos are free to use
