Introduce a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) so external contributions
can be licensed under AGPL-3.0 and any other terms (incl. closed-source),
keeping the AGPL-3.0 codebase usable in closed-source projects.
- CLA.md: authoritative English CLA (ICLA + employer authorization, v1.0)
- CLA.zh.md: non-binding Chinese reference translation
- CONTRIBUTING.md: bilingual contributing guide, points to CLA
- .github/workflows/cla.yml: self-hosted cla-assistant-action that records
signatures into cla-signatures/version-1.json; exempts maintainers & bots
via allowlist; skips when CLA_BOT_TOKEN is unset
- .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md: guides contributors to sign
- README.{md,en.md,ja.md}: add License & contributing footer
- app/terms: note CLA requirement in the IP section
Enforcement requires repo-level setup (PAT secret + branch protection)
documented in cla.yml; not covered by this commit.
Distinguish between temporary server-side processing and persistent
storage to accurately reflect the actual data flow.
