+
+      "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
+      transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
+      not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
+      and conversions to other media types.
+

+      Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
+      copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
+      (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
+      separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
+      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
+
+      "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
+      the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
+      to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
+      submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
+      or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of

+      communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,
+      and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the
+      Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but

+      designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
+
+      "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
+      on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
+      subsequently incorporated within the Work.
+
+   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
+      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
+      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
+
+   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
+      use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
+      where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
+      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
+      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
+      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
+      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
+          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
+
+      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+          stating that You changed the files; and
+
+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
+
+   END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+   APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.
+
+      To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following
+      boilerplate notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]"

+## NVIDIA SkillSpector
+
+- **Source:** <https://github.com/NVIDIA/SkillSpector>
+- **License:** [Apache License 2.0](https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0), full text in
+  [`LICENSES/Apache-2.0.txt`](LICENSES/Apache-2.0.txt); the project ships no `NOTICE` file.
+- **Copyright:** Copyright 2026 NVIDIA CORPORATION & AFFILIATES
+- **What is derived:** behaviour and regular expressions of the static pattern analyzers, and test fixtures from the
+  pattern tests, reimplemented as RE2 rules and Go table tests in `internal/lint`.
+- **Modification notice (Apache-2.0 section 4(b)):** every derived file is marked as modified in its header. The
+  changes are a rewrite from Python to Go, translation of patterns to RE2, and replacement of the SkillSpector
+  finding model with ai-rulez rule codes.
+- **Derived files**, all taken from upstream commit `cf5cac7ba5c756a6e0ebf52dc9763f49422f889f`:
+
+| File | Derived from (SkillSpector rule ids) |
+| --- | --- |
+| `internal/lint/ar_prose.go`, `internal/lint/ar_prose_test.go` | AR1-AR3, E4, P3 (AR041, AR042) |
+| `internal/lint/ar_exec.go`, `internal/lint/ar_exec_test.go` | RA2, DS1-DS4, SSRF1-SSRF3 (AR043-AR045) |
+| `internal/lint/ar_hidden.go`, `internal/lint/ar_hidden_test.go` | SC8, SC9, P3, P9, AE4, AE6 (AR051-AR053); partly derived (some fixtures and patterns are original), with fixtures from `tests/nodes/analyzers/test_sc8_shipped_bytecode.py`, `tests/nodes/analyzers/test_static_patterns.py` and `tests/nodes/test_security_remediation.py` |
+| `internal/lint/ar_manifest.go`, `internal/lint/ar_manifest_data.go`, `internal/lint/ar_manifest_test.go` | SC1, SC6, SC10 (AR054-AR056); SC10 and the semantic-version expression come from `src/skillspector/dependency_sources.py` and `src/skillspector/mcp_registry.py`, and some fixtures from `tests/unit/test_patterns_new.py`, `tests/nodes/analyzers/test_dependency_sources.py` and `tests/nodes/analyzers/test_dependency_source_budget_behavior.py` |
+
+The rules AR046-AR050 (`internal/lint/ar_malware.go`), AR057 (`internal/lint/ar_mcpmeta.go`) and AR058
+(`internal/lint/ar_declared.go`) are written from public threat-family behaviour. SkillSpector's YARA files
+(`yara_rules/*.yar`) were read for reference when choosing which families to cover; no YARA text is copied (checked: no
+common substring of 40 or more characters), and no rule name, description or string identifier is reused.
+
+### Header for derived files
+
+Put this block at the top of every Go file that contains derived rules or tests, ahead of the `package` clause.
+Replace `<sha>` with the upstream commit the content was taken from (a full 40-character hash), list the upstream files
+after it, and describe the changes on the second line.
+
+```go
+// SPDX-FileCopyrightText: Copyright (c) 2026 NVIDIA CORPORATION & AFFILIATES. All rights reserved.
+// SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0
+//
+// Derived from NVIDIA/SkillSpector at commit <sha> (<upstream files>).
+// Modified by the ai-rulez authors: <what changed>.
+// See THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.
+```
+
+`scripts/transcode-skillspector-tests.py` writes this header for the tables it generates; the output is a fragment to
+merge into a file that already carries the header once.
+
+## Neo23x0 signature-base
+
+SkillSpector's YARA rules state that they are based on [Neo23x0/signature-base](https://github.com/Neo23x0/signature-base),
+which is licensed under the Detection Rule License (DRL) 1.1 (the `LICENSE` file of that repository).
+ai-rulez does not copy those YARA files. A pattern that comes from such a rule is re-derived as an RE2 regular
+expression and keeps the attribution DRL-1.1 asks for: the original rule name, its author and reference, and a link
+to the license.
+
+- **Derived files:** none yet. List each one as
+  `<file>: rule <original rule> by <rule author>, signature-base at <upstream commit>`.
+
+## Unicode confusables data
+
+- **Source:** the Unicode Consortium's confusables data (UTS #39, `confusables.txt`,
+  <https://www.unicode.org/Public/security/latest/confusables.txt>), which SkillSpector also uses as its source. The
+  table is not copied from SkillSpector.
+- **License:** Unicode License v3 (SPDX `Unicode-3.0`), full text in
+  [`LICENSES/Unicode-3.0.txt`](LICENSES/Unicode-3.0.txt).
+- **Copyright:** Copyright © 1991-2026 Unicode, Inc.
+- **Derived file:** `internal/lint/ar_confusables.go` holds 84 mappings selected from `confusables.txt`. Three are
+  remapped on purpose: U+0196, U+0399 and U+0406 map to `I`, where `confusables.txt` maps them to `l`.
+
+## npm-high-impact
+
+- **Source:** <https://github.com/wooorm/npm-high-impact>, version 1.13.0, `lib/top-download.js`.
+- **License:** MIT, full text in [`LICENSES/MIT-npm-high-impact.txt`](LICENSES/MIT-npm-high-impact.txt).
+- **Copyright:** Copyright (c) Titus Wormer
+- **Derived file:** `internal/lint/ar_manifest_npm.txt`, the first 10,000 names of that list (the npm packages with
+  the most downloads), embedded by `internal/lint/ar_manifest_data.go` for AR056.
+
+## top-pypi-packages
+
+- **Source:** <https://github.com/hugovk/top-pypi-packages>, release `2026.10.1` (`top-pypi-packages.min.json`), by
+  Hugo van Kemenade and contributors. The project builds the list from the public PyPI download statistics (the
+  ClickHouse PyPI dataset).
+- **License:** the repository states no license. Its Zenodo archive (<https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.23082845>) lists
+  CC-BY-4.0, which is Zenodo's default for releases archived from GitHub, not a choice stated in the repository.
+- **Derived file:** `internal/lint/ar_manifest_pypi.txt`, the first 10,000 project names of that release, folded as in
+  PEP 503 and with the download counts dropped, embedded by `internal/lint/ar_manifest_data.go` for AR056. The file
+  holds only public package names in download order.
+
+## Redistribution
+
+Release archives (`ai-rulez_<version>_<os>_<arch>.tar.gz` and `.zip`), the Homebrew formula and the npm and PyPI
+packages include this file, `LICENSE` and every file in `LICENSES/`, so the license texts above accompany the binary.
