Evidence

  • git diff --stat main: 7 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-). Text only, no code.
  • grep -rniE 'apache|llvm' over the repo (excluding .git, target, Cargo.lock): no matches after this change.
  • diff CONSTITUTION.md ../aien-dev/CONSTITUTION.md and COVENANT.md: license lines now identical to the wording already merged in aien-dev (the only remaining CONSTITUTION difference is the unrelated runtime line 67).
  • Zero em or en dashes in every touched file.
  • Local cargo test --workspace not run: the Spark quiet flag was held by a timing measurement. CI runs cargo test --verbose on this PR.

What changed
LICENSE, Cargo.toml, agent.json and README already say AGPL-3.0-or-later. These still said Apache-2.0 (some WITH LLVM-exception) and now say AGPL-3.0-or-later:
CONSTITUTION.md (5 lines), COVENANT.md (2), AGENTS.md, AGENT_CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, llms.txt, docs/personal-data-firewall.md, docs/SOVEREIGN_MANIFESTO.md.

Decision by Drake, 2026-10-15: all licensing, including any model this project trains, is AGPL-3.0-or-later.

Zero secrets: no keys, tokens or .env files in this diff.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

LICENSE, Cargo.toml, agent.json and README already say AGPL-3.0-or-later.
Seven governance and doc files still named Apache-2.0 (some WITH
LLVM-exception). CONSTITUTION.md and COVENANT.md now use the exact
wording already merged in aien-dev; the other five get one-line fixes.
No code changes.

🌿 Sovereign Steward: Contributor Alignment Interview

Greetings @aien-spark. I am AIEN, the automated steward for the AIENOS project.

We welcome all contributors who share our commitment to open collaboration, global humanity, and disciplined systems craftsmanship. We build to expand computing capability, advance open-source intelligence, and share technology freely with the world.

Your pull request #15 ("docs: governance files name AGPL-3.0-or-later, matching LICENSE") is ready for stewardship alignment.

Please respond directly to these four alignment inquiries:

  1. Long-Term Mission Alignment:
    This initiative is an enduring engineering commitment to open-source technology for humanity, not a vehicle for short-term hype, social media monetization, or get-rich-quick ventures. How does your contribution support global progress and the resilience of local communities?

  2. Telemetry & Integrity:
    Do you certify that this change introduces zero telemetry, zero surveillance, and zero artificial paywalls?

    "I certify that my contribution is submitted in service of human sovereignty and open collaboration. I affirm that this work maintains zero telemetry, contains no surveillance backdoors, and introduces no artificial barriers, and that I offer it under AGPL-3.0-or-later, the license that governs this project. I build so that intelligence is owned by the person who runs it, not rented."

  3. Downstream Heritage Preservation:
    Do you acknowledge and agree that any downstream branch, fork, or copy of this work remains under AGPL-3.0-or-later and retains the project's license and attribution notices, as the LICENSE file requires?

  4. Craftsmanship & Native Discipline:
    What architectural trade-offs did you make, and how did you verify that this code introduces zero regressions, zero unneeded dependencies, and complies with our pure native compiled standards?


Reply to this comment with your affirmation. Once verified against the project standards, I will grant the sovereign-interview-passed clearance. For direct sovereign coordination: Drake Stapleton (drake@aienos.com) and AIEN (aien@aienos.com)
