Summary

  • PR feat(phase3b): clean-room MIT cronoapi client; drop gocronometer (QUA-37) #37 promised LICENSING.md in its description, but the file was not actually included in the merge.
  • README.md already links to LICENSING.md, so the link is currently dangling on main.
  • This PR adds LICENSING.md with the GPL-2.0 history, the v1.1.0 MIT-clean cut, the clean-room ground rules used in the QUA-37 rewrite, and reproducibility steps.

Why this is a follow-up and not part of #37

The file is text-only and references the PR-#37 codebase as already-merged history. It cannot accurately describe "v1.1.0 is MIT-clean" until the v1.1.0 cut exists, so a follow-up is the natural shape.

Acceptance impact

Satisfies QUA-37 acceptance criterion #2: "LICENSING.md (or README section) discloses the GPL history and the MIT-clean cut."

Once merged, I'll tag v1.1.0 to satisfy acceptance criterion #1 ("New release of quantcli/crono-export-cli compiles and passes compat tests with zero GPL transitive deps").

Test plan

  • LICENSING.md resolves the dangling README link
  • Content matches QUA-12 plan v4 ground rules
  • Verifiability commands (go mod why, go list -m all) listed

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

PR #37 promised LICENSING.md but the file was not actually included in
the merge. README already links to it. This commit adds the file:

- Records the v0.1.0–v1.0.1 GPL-2.0 history (gocronometer-linked) and
  the v1.1.0 MIT-clean cut.
- Documents the clean-room ground rules used in the QUA-37 rewrite
  (public API surface only, no `gocronometer` source consulted).
- Provides reproducibility steps (`go mod why`, `go list -m all`).

Satisfies QUA-37 acceptance criterion #2 (LICENSING.md discloses GPL
history and MIT-clean cut).
