licenseal
licenseal is a dependency license compatibility checker that analyzes code manifests across ecosystems.
licenseal is a fast license compatibility checker for dependency trees across language ecosystems. It reads manifests, lockfiles, and public registry metadata to determine whether dependency licenses are compatible with your project license. It operates quickly enough to run in continuous integration pipelines without installing dependencies, running package-manager commands, executing build scripts, or downloading archives. It is designed for software developers and security teams who want to catch incompatible licenses before deployment. It outputs Markdown or JSON reports and supports manual review override files.
