Built on pyArchimate
--------------------

mcp-archimate is a Model Context Protocol server wrapped around pyArchimate,
which does the actual ArchiMate modelling work. Every model this server
creates, reads, lays out, validates and exports passes through it.

    Licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0

pyArchimate is a required runtime dependency, not an optional backend, and it
is GPL-3.0-only. That is why mcp-archimate is distributed under the GPL rather
than a permissive license: the program cannot function without it, so the
combined work users actually run is governed by the GPL. Distributing this
server under permissive terms would misrepresent that.

pyArchimate is not redistributed here. It is declared as a dependency and
installed separately by pip or uv, under its own license, from its own
maintainer.
