license: ND terms conflict with documented snippet usage #131

Description

@TMHSDigital

CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0 is the outbound license for this repository. ND forbids distributing modified material.

README.md (Snippets) tells readers to open a snippet, copy the relevant lines into their script, and adapt the names. That is the documented use of snippets/ and templates/. Adapting those files and redistributing the result is a derivative work.

Those two instructions conflict. A commercial game pipeline that copies decimate_to_budget.py into a shipping tool cannot do so under ND.

Split option (for T to decide; this issue does not change LICENSE):

  • Permissive license (MIT or CC-BY) on snippets/ and templates/ so copy-and-adapt is lawful.
  • Leave prose skills, rules, and examples under CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0.

Do not edit LICENSE until that decision is made.
