What is the License-sentinel MCP Server?

License-sentinel source profile. From the maintainer documentation: “An AI agent can add pdf-renderer to your project in one second. It will not tell you that pdf-renderer is AGPL-3.0 and that shipping it inside a closed-source product is a license violation. License data and compatibility rules are things a model cannot reliably recall — packages relicense between versions (MongoDB → SSPL, Redis → BUSL, Elasticsearch → Elastic-2.0), and "the source is on GitHub" does not mean "free to ship".”

Installation

The documented pypi package is license-sentinel. The configuration below comes from the maintainer’s example; adapt its paths and account values to your environment.
