license-comply

license-comply is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from LegalQuants/lq-skills. It costs 28 tokens per session (1,675 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An open-source licence audit for Python project dependencies. It detects dependency licences, maps them to SPDX identifiers, and compares them with configured policies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Scanning Python dependencies, generating compliance or licence-risk reports, supporting CI checks, and creating a software bill of materials.
Why use it?
It helps engineering and legal teams find licence issues and document what third-party software is included before release.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

license-comply scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

license-comply

When to Use

  • Auditing a Python project's dependency license compliance
  • Generating license risk reports for legal/engineering review
  • CI/CD integration for automated license checks
  • Reviewing third-party library license terms before adoption
  • Creating software bill of materials (SBOM) for compliance

Audience and Work Shape

Audience: non-lawyer engineers running a CI-gated dependency scan, and the in-house counsel / open-source review function those engineers escalate to. Not intended as a stand-alone clearance tool for engineering teams without a counsel-in-the-loop on flagged findings.

Work shape: Pattern-Matched Review for license detection (license string -> SPDX -> policy band). The "AI executive summary" and "plain-English explanations" features are advisory framing, not judgment work, and must not be relied on as legal advice or as a substitute for counsel review.

This skill provides legal support, not legal advice. A "low risk" classification means "the detected SPDX identifier is on the configured allow-list" — it does not mean "this dependency is safe to ship in your product," "this license is compatible with the rest of your stack," or "your use of this code is compliant."

Three legal failure modes this skill explicitly addresses:

  1. Legal advice vs. legal support. The report is advisory. Risk bands, remediation text, plain-English explanations, and the optional AI executive summary are detection output, not legal conclusions. They do not constitute legal advice and must not be circulated to leadership as a clearance.
  2. Privilege implications. CI-generated reports are discoverable artefacts by default. If counsel wants the manual-review layer to sit inside privilege, counsel must mark up the report under privilege themselves; running the CLI in CI does not create work product. Treat raw CI artefacts as non-privileged.
  3. Accountability gap. The tool is CI-gated and aimed at non-lawyer engineers. Without an explicit gate, an engineer can merge against a license violation without legal review — the --fail-on=high flag exits non-zero but can be silently bypassed in CI configuration, and the AI executive summary lets leadership consume a license posture with no counsel in the loop. Review required by qualified open-source / IP counsel before merging changes flagged Medium or High. The CI gate is not a substitute for that review.
