1. Slangp license unclear 🐞 Bug ✓ Correctness
THIRD_PART_NOTICES.md lists shaders/retroarch/crt/crt-lottes-fast.slangp as third-party but does not specify an actual license (identifier/text), and the preset file itself contains no license/attribution header. This creates ambiguity for redistribution/compliance and undermines the PR’s goal of clarifying licensing.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
`THIRD_PART_NOTICES.md` lists `shaders/retroarch/crt/crt-lottes-fast.slangp` but does not provide an actual license identifier/text, and the preset file contains no embedded license/attribution. This leaves redistribution terms unclear.
## Issue Context
Other third-party entries in `THIRD_PART_NOTICES.md` name specific licenses (OFL-1.1, Unlicense, MIT-style, ISC-style). This one does not, making it ambiguous for compliance/audits.
## Fix Focus Areas
- THIRD_PART_NOTICES.md[18-21]
- shaders/retroarch/crt/crt-lottes-fast.slangp[1-5]
## Suggested approaches
1. If `crt-lottes-fast.slangp` is third-party: update the THIRD_PART_NOTICES entry to a specific license (e.g., SPDX ID) and ensure the corresponding license text is present in-repo (either embedded in the file, or included as a separate license file referenced from the notice).
2. If it is first-party (authored in this repo): remove it from THIRD_PART_NOTICES and optionally add a short comment header noting it is MIT-licensed under the project LICENSE.
