Summary
Add a standalone Codex
license_auditorsubagent and integrate it into release preparation and artifact review. The agent helps the release manager understand existing licensing arrangements, investigate questions, and compare practical options. It returns evidence and suggestions without modifying files; release decisions remain with the release manager and project community.Include Markdown in the license-header check and add ASF headers to the six Markdown source files. Clarify how repository paths in the shared root
LICENSEmap into the published crate, preserving the existing symlinks and a single maintained source for licensing materials.Design Notes
The agent is a project-scoped TOML file with inherited model settings, inspired by Apache Magpie's license-compliance-audit and rewritten without its setup, adopter configuration, Markdown tooling, or sibling skills.
Review actual bundled works, applicable licenses, third-party notices, and header-scan exclusions. Distinguish official source releases from third-party convenience distributions and account for Cargo packaging conventions. Explain concrete impact and maintenance costs; keep clear omissions, optional improvements, and incomplete evidence distinct. Consider generated package-specific licensing files only if actual differences between future crates justify them.
Validation
cargo x lint: 200 license-header checks, zero changes, conflicts, or unsupported files.cargo package --package asyncband --locked --no-verify --allow-dirty; verified LICENSE, NOTICE, and DISCLAIMER are exact regular-file copies of the shared originals and that every documented crate source path resolves.
