## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

Licensed is a Ruby command-line tool for caching dependency license texts and checking them against repository policy. It sits in the GitHub Licensee ecosystem: Licensee detects license text, while Licensed records and verifies the dependency-level results that package managers expose.

### Projektgeschichte

The public GitHub repository was created on 2018-02-02 under GitHub's license tooling namespace and later moved under the licensee organization. The README describes the project as a Ruby gem and warns that it is not a complete open-source compliance solution.

The changelog shows the project evolving through compatibility-driven releases: v3 added migration guidance for self-contained builds, v4 removed self-contained executable releases and older Go support, and v5 required Ruby 3.0 or newer.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

Licensed became useful to repositories that wanted license checks in development and continuous integration without manually inspecting every transitive dependency. Its source enumerators cover multiple language ecosystems, and its Homebrew formula made the Ruby CLI easy to install on macOS.

### Wie es verwendet wird

A project adds a .licensed.yml file, runs Licensed to cache dependency records, and then runs status or verification commands to catch newly introduced, stale, or disallowed dependency licenses.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Licensed is package-nerd notable because it treats license review as package metadata that can be cached, diffed, and enforced in CI. It also shows the practical boundary between SPDX-style license identification and the messy package-manager work of finding dependency sources.

### Zeitleiste
