Third-Party Licenses and Compliance

Overview

Abysius Codium and the Abysius AI extension rely on a variety of open-source software. This document outlines our license compliance posture and obligations.

License Audit

We periodically run automated license audits to ensure all dependencies comply with our distribution terms. The following tools are used:

license-checker (npm) for Node.js dependencies
Manual review for bundled extensions

Key Dependency Licenses

Package	License	Copyleft?	Notes
VS Code / VSCodium source	MIT	No	Core editor, requires trademark separation
TypeScript	Apache-2.0	No	Compiler and language services
Node.js	MIT	No	Runtime (for build tooling)

Copyleft and GPL Compatibility

We avoid bundling GPL-licensed libraries with the extension or the application binary unless all distribution terms are met (source availability, license notice, etc.). Any GPL dependencies used in build tooling are not distributed to end users.

Trademark Notice

Microsoft, VS Code, Visual Studio, and related marks are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation.
VSCodium is a community project independent of Microsoft.
