Verify a third-party library, asset, model, font, dataset or copied snippet is safe to ship under the project's licensing stance, and record it. Use before adding or upgrading any dependency, before downloading any asset, and before a release.
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
The always-on prohibitions live in the selected `licensing` stance. Resolve its shared source with `citizen stances --json`; runtime projections carry the same policy. This is the procedure. ## Before adopting or upgrading 1. **Read the authoritative license**, not the marketplace blurb or the README badge. Check the exact version you are taking. 2. **Inspect the actual package**, including transitive dependencies and any separately licensed textures, data, fonts or bundled code inside it. 3. **For dual licensing**, record which qualifying option you are taking. Where terms are combined rather than alternative, all of them must comply. 4. **Check authorship and provenance.** An uploader's claim does not establish ownership. Reject game rips, unlicensed copies, and anything with missing, conflicting or suspect rights. 5. **Recheck on upgrade.** Terms change between versions. Pin a floor you have actually run against. 6. **No new third-party dependency without a reason the reviewer will accept.** In a shared repo that means an issue or a note in the PR; in a solo repo it means one sentence in the commit. …

How to install
mdr add jakeselby/agent-harness/licensing-review@sha256:868560c6829705e0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260928.ca93e6d, 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.
