Can you add a license to the repo? Legally we couldn't run any code without a license attached to it.

  ...you can't redistribute code without a license, but surely you can legally run it, can't you? Like, if I write a blog post and put it on my blog, you're allowed to read it, right? Heck, if my blog contains some Javascript code I wrote, I would imagine your web browser is allowed to run that code without opening you up to copyright infringement, even if I didn't provide an explicit license.

  The author states that the code was written by Opus, and afaik AI-written code is not considered copyrightable. Without copyright on the code, there should not be something prohibiting you from running it or even redistributing it. Of course this may come down to the extent of human contribution.

    fwiw, the opposite view was recently taken for node js. GH hides most of the conversation by default due to size, but the gist is that a new VFS feature is being proposed for node that was largely written using an LLM. I think I've more often seen the view these days that if you used, steered, and likely modified code generated by an AI, you generated the code and hold the copyright. https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/61478 https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/61478 https://blog.platformatic.dev/why-nodejs-needs-a-virtual-file-system https://blog.platformatic.dev/why-nodejs-needs-a-virtual-fil...
