MIT License Compatibility Audit

Check project dependencies for licenses incompatible with MIT.

Workflow

1. Collect License Data

Node.js (pnpm):

pnpm licenses list --json

Node.js (npm):

npx license-checker --json

Rust:

cargo metadata --format-version 1

2. Identify Problematic Licenses

Incompatible with MIT (block release):

GPL, GPLv2, GPLv3
AGPL, AGPLv3
SSPL, BUSL, CPAL, EUPL

Requires investigation:

LGPL (may be acceptable depending on linking)
UNKNOWN, UNLICENSED, SEE LICENSE IN LICENSE
CC-BY-* (requires attribution)

Generally compatible:

MIT, ISC, BSD-2-Clause, BSD-3-Clause
Apache-2.0 (include NOTICE if present)
MPL-2.0 (disclose modifications to MPL files)
Unlicense, CC0-1.0, WTFPL

Rust dual-licensing:

MIT OR Apache-2.0 → Choose MIT, compatible
GPL OR MIT → Choose MIT, compatible

3. Generate Report

Report format:
