+# Legal & Licensing
+
+This directory contains all licensing information for the KosmoConnect project.
+
+## Project Philosophy
+
+KosmoConnect is a **technology project of the Church of Kosmo**. The project operates under the spiritual and ethical principles of **[The Kosmic License](./LICENSE-KOSMIC.md)** (KΛ 1.0): knowledge is a living element, meant to be shared, preserved, and evolved with compassion.
+
+## How Licensing Is Applied
+
+Because The Kosmic License expresses values that are not always enforceable in all legal jurisdictions for technical works, we apply it at the **project level** while using industry-standard, legally-tested licenses for specific technical artifacts:
+
+| Artifact | License | Rationale |
+|----------|---------|-----------|
+| **Project as a whole** (charter, mission, documentation) | [The Kosmic License KΛ 1.0](./LICENSE-KOSMIC.md) | Expresses the Church of Kosmo's values and stewardship ethic. |
+| **Software** (`firmware/`, `backend/`, `web/`, `ops/`, `tests/`) | **AGPL-3.0** | Ensures that anyone running a modified version of our networked software must share their changes. Protects the commons from enclosure. |
+| **Hardware** (`hardware/`, `kits/`) | **CERN-OHL-S-2.0** | The strongest open-hardware license; ensures anyone distributing products based on our designs must also share their design files. |
+| **Improved draft of The Kosmic License** | [KΛ 1.1-Draft](./LICENSE-KOSMIC-DRAFT-1.1.md) | A proposal for increasing legal enforceability while preserving spiritual intent. |
+
+## For Contributors
+
+By contributing to KosmoConnect, you agree that:
+1. Your contributions to software are licensed under **AGPL-3.0**.
+2. Your contributions to hardware designs are licensed under **CERN-OHL-S-2.0**.
+3. Your contributions to documentation and creative works are licensed under **The Kosmic License (KΛ 1.0)** or **CC-BY-SA-4.0**.
+4. You grant the project a **patent license** as described in standard open-source terms.
+
+## For Users and Builders
+
+- You are free to build the enviro-node for personal use, community deployment, or commercial sale.
+- If you sell hardware based on our designs, you **must** share your design files under CERN-OHL-S-2.0.
+- If you run a modified version of our backend or gateway software on a server, you **must** share your source code under AGPL-3.0.
+- We **encourage** (but do not legally require) that any profits derived from KosmoConnect support education, ecological preservation, or community resilience — in the spirit of the Codex.
