…D binding, add CLA The repository default is now AGPL-3.0-only (the root LICENSE was already switched to the GNU AGPL v3 text). Two subtrees are carved out under the permissive MIT License so third parties can build compatible clients against the wire protocol: - shared/protocol/ — the ledmapper.v1 wire contract + generated bindings - tools/touchdesigner/ — the TouchDesigner client binding Each subtree gets its own MIT LICENSE and a README note. A new top-level LICENSING.md documents the AGPL/MIT map and the rationale. Contributions are now gated on a classic Contributor License Agreement (CLA.md — inbound copyright + patent grant, individual/entity, with a re-licensing grant so the AGPL/MIT split stays coherent), wired up via a new CONTRIBUTING.md. Automated CLA-bot enforcement is left as a follow-up. Also: fix the package metadata (root + web package.json UNLICENSED -> AGPL-3.0-only; protocol ts/python -> MIT), add a License section to README and DEVELOPERS, and note the MIT carve-out on the in-app About screen.

What
Adds a permissive MIT carve-out for the wire protocol and the reference client bindings, and adds a classic
CLA for contributions.
Closes FUG-101.
The license map
shared/protocol/ledmapper.v1wire contract + generated bindings.tools/touchdesigner/The protocol and reference bindings are MIT so third parties can build
compatible controllers, drivers, and integrations (including commercial ones)
against the same protocol the phone/web app speaks.
Changes

Notes
mainwhose rootLICENSEis alreadythe verbatim GNU AGPL v3 (with the "How to Apply" boilerplate filled in for
Splanc); this PR leaves that file untouched.
LICENSEfiles — thetree has no per-file SPDX headers today, so none were added.
pre-commit/prekhooks pass (prettier + markdownlint clean).Follow-ups (out of scope)
first-PR sign-off.
