Why

The repository needs a published license defining the permitted use and distribution boundaries for the AI Scan Runtime.

What changed

Adds LICENSE.md with terms covering the license grant, approved invocation and runner usage, restrictions, unauthorized downloads, third-party components, AI services, ownership, updates, termination, and agreement hierarchy.

Notes

The license is intentionally specific to the AI Scan Runtime and preserves the governing terms of the applicable GitHub agreement.
