# ECP-0026: adopt AGPLv3 licensing
|
|
|
|
Status: Draft
|
|
|
|
## Problem / context
|
|
|
|
We want copyleft protections that apply to network use, ensuring improvements to the networked code path remain open.
|
|
|
|
## Decision
|
|
|
|
Adopt the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 (AGPLv3) for the repository.
|
|
|
|
## Details
|
|
|
|
- Update workspace license metadata to `AGPL-3.0-only`.
|
|
- Add a top-level `LICENSE` file with the full AGPLv3 text.
|
|
|
|
## Alternatives considered
|
|
|
|
- MIT/Apache-2.0: rejected (insufficient copyleft for network deployment).
|
|
- GPLv3: rejected (does not cover SaaS/network use).
|
|
|
|
## Rollout / teardown plan
|
|
|
|
1. Update license metadata + add LICENSE.
|
|
2. Communicate licensing change in README or release notes.
|
|
|
|
Teardown: supersede with a future ECP if the license changes again.
