AI Description

• Relicenses repository code and documentation from MIT to CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.
• Adds complete license terms and a commercial licensing contact.
• Standardizes the API-generated data license name and link.

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Split code and documentation licenses

• ➕ Uses a software-oriented license for source code
• ➕ Retains Creative Commons terms for documentation and generated content
• ➕ Clarifies obligations for each material type
• ➖ Requires explicit file-level scope declarations
• ➖ Introduces multiple licenses to maintain

2. Use a noncommercial source-available license

• ➕ Expressly addresses software use and redistribution
• ➕ Better matches the stated commercial licensing model
• ➕ Avoids applying a Creative Commons content license to code
• ➖ May be less familiar to users
• ➖ Requires legal review and careful license selection

Recommendation: Consider licensing code under a software-specific noncommercial or source-available license while retaining CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 for documentation and generated content. Creative Commons generally discourages its licenses for software; whichever approach is chosen should receive legal review and clearly define scope.
