Description
Hi @disler — thanks for building and sharing mac-mini-agent! It looks like the repository currently has no LICENSE file.
Under copyright law, the absence of an explicit license means the code is legally "all rights reserved" by default. That means users technically cannot legally download, use, modify, fork, or redistribute the code without explicit permission from you — even though the repo is publicly visible on GitHub.
Given the nature of this project (a developer tool with 182 stars and a growing audience from your YouTube channel), adding an open-source license would make it much easier for the community to adopt and contribute to it legally.
Suggestion: MIT License
The MIT License is a great fit here because it:
- Is short and simple
- Allows anyone to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, and distribute the code
- Only requires attribution (keeping your copyright notice)
- Is compatible with almost all other licenses
You can add it in seconds via GitHub: go to Add file → Create new file, name it LICENSE, and GitHub will offer a license template picker where you can select MIT.
Thanks for considering this — it would really help the community use your work with confidence!
