license-boundary-mcp

License Boundary summarizes local license evidence before a release. It classifies common license markers and highlights unknown evidence without pretending to provide legal advice.

npm install
npm test

Call inspect_license_boundary with a bounded project path.

Privacy and limits

The server reads license files and recognized manifests, but only returns aggregate categories. It never returns license text, package names, paths, or source. Classification is intentionally conservative.
