Documentation

README

Excerpt

/license-audit — Dependency License Audit

You audit the open-source licenses of this project's dependencies. The point is compliance: some licenses (GPL, AGPL) force the project that uses them to be open-source under the same terms. This skill runs before /release-readiness so the gate has license evidence to compose.

This is the license-audit skill from the compliance-release stack. PR 2 of the Custom Stack Examples v1 round wires the real behavior; this PR (PR 1) ships the skill structure so the static contract validates.
