How Stateward protects you against copyleft & source-available license risk

The threat

A single new dependency under GPL/AGPL or a source-available license (SSPL, BUSL, Elastic, Commons-Clause) can impose obligations on your whole product, a legal problem that surfaces at the worst possible time.

How Stateward catches it

Stateward flags copyleft and non-OSI source-available licenses in two places: your own code (an SPDX id, a manifest license field, or a LICENSE file, declaration-context gated, word-boundary aware so LGPL ≠ GPL) and, the part teams miss, the licenses of every dependency you add, resolved from the registry and checked against a per-repo license policy you control (deny AGPL/GPL/SSPL/BUSL by default). One place to keep the whole estate legally clean; licenses also flow into the SBOM.
