ModelSpec is licensed in two parts.

  Code    — everything except the data directories below — MIT, as set out in
            full beneath this notice.

  Data    — the curated corpora in `models/`, `benchmarks/`, `hardware/` and
            `hosts/` — Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0
            International (CC BY-SA 4.0), set out in full in LICENSE-DATA.

The data is share-alike so that anyone who builds on the corpus and
redistributes it publishes their improvements under the same terms. The code is
permissive so the CLI can be embedded anywhere. Individual cards and pages
record the source and licence of the third-party material they draw on; those
terms govern that material and are not altered by this file.

Decided by the operator on 2026-09-08. The data directories were extended to
`hardware/` and `hosts/` on 2026-09-16 (MODEL-11); those records are curated data
on the same terms as the other corpora, and the earlier text covered them only by
omission.
