Use when a codebase needs an open-source licence inventory — pre-release checks, funding or M&A diligence, or answering whether commercial use of OSS dependencies is compliant. Produces an SBOM-style inventory with copyleft triage, never a legal opinion. For prose rhythm checks, see analyze-variation.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# OSS Licence Audit Builds a manifest-based open-source licence inventory of a codebase and triages it for legal review. The output is a technical input to a lawyer's opinion — the skill states this in every report and never concludes whether a use is compliant. > **Why this is a skill with a script, not a prompt:** the inventory must be > deterministic. Licence fields are read from installed packages by the > bundled Node script — this skill tells the agent to run it, how to read > the output, and what the script cannot see. Do not eyeball licences from > memory; run the script. ## When to use - Before a commercial release, to check what licences ship with the product. - When diligence asks (funding, acquisition): produce the SBOM and flag list. - When someone asks "are we allowed to sell this given the open source in it": run the inventory, triage, and hand the flags to a lawyer. - On any repo you inherit: first audit before first deploy. ## How to run Always execute the bundled script — never compile the inventory by hand. The script lives at `scripts/oss-licence-audit.mjs` **inside this skill's own directory**. Resolve that directory however your harness exposes it, …

How to install
mdr add augchan42/inkstone/oss-licence-audit@sha256:fe1d243360f6d873The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
