finding(create-plugin): the scaffolded package.json declares "license": "MIT" while the generator writes no LICENSE file #8041
Description
Found while running the mandatory measurement for objectui#7524 (that card is about the emitted vitest test block; this is a different defect in the same file, deliberately left alone there).
What the generator emits. packages/create-plugin/src/templates.ts:
buildPackageJsonwriteslicense: 'MIT'into the generated manifest, unconditionally and without prompting the author;buildPluginFileswrites nine files —package.json,tsconfig.json,vite.config.ts,vitest.setup.ts,README.mdand four sources — and none of them is a LICENSE;- the generated manifest declares no
filesarray, sonpm packtakes the default set.
So an author who publishes a freshly scaffolded plugin ships a tarball that claims MIT and carries no licence text.
Measured on a9e6f04b4: running the real scaffolder into packages/ and then pnpm exec vitest run scripts/__tests__/ turns scripts/__tests__/package-files-exist.test.ts red with, verbatim:
@object-ui/plugin-NAME (packages/plugin-NAME) declares "license": "MIT" but has no LICENSE file
(the package name is spelled here as a placeholder word, not with angle brackets — GitHub eats those). That pin is this repo's own rule (objectui#3696), so on its own it only demonstrates the shape locally. The same tarball goes to npm for the generator's actual audience, where no gate of ours looks at it at all.
Needs triage, not a guess — two separate questions:
- Should the generator write a LICENSE file, or should it stop hard-coding a licence for someone else's package? It asserts MIT on an author's work without ever asking. Those two answers point in opposite directions.
- objectui#3647 was the identical shape inside this repo and was settled by shipping the text. Whether that answer transfers to a foreign author's package is a product decision.
Deliberately out of scope for the objectui#7524 PR: that card's dispatch ruling holds the scaffolder's published output constant, so this was recorded rather than changed.

Triage routing — into the decision box
Labels

The generated manifest declares nofilesarray, sonpm packtakes the default set.⇒ an author who publishes a freshly scaffolded plugin ships a tarball that claims MIT and carries no licence text.
Why
needs-user-decisionand notpm:queue. The card's question 1 is not a choice between two implementations of one intent — the two answers point in opposite directions, and one of them is a statement about a third party's legal position:⛔ That is not a seat's call. Asserting a licence on work this project does not own is the kind of decision that belongs to a person, and it does not get more decidable by being small.
Decision
Option A — write the LICENSE file
Emit MIT text alongside the manifest that claims it. Consistent with objectui#3647, which settled the identical shape inside this repo by shipping the text.
Option B — stop hard-coding the licence
Omit
license, or prompt for it.licensefield draws annpmwarning and reads as unlicensed (all rights reserved) by default — arguably a worse default for the ecosystem, and it puts a decision in front of an author who wanted a scaffold.Option C — A plus a prompt
Ask, default to MIT, emit whatever is chosen.
四棱卡面
① 项目长远合理性 — 现状是唯一不自洽的一个:manifest 声称 MIT,tarball 里没有那份文本。A 与 B 各自自洽,C 最自洽。⇒ 不动是三个选项里最差的一个。
② 实际业务拉动 — 未测得。脚手架的实际使用量分诊席看不到,这正是强制置信缺口那一条。
③ 防 AI 犯错 — 一个 agent 用脚手架建包并发布,不会去核对 LICENSE 是否存在;它会相信 manifest。A 或 C 让 manifest 说的是真的。
④ 创业阶段不扩散 — A 是一个文件模板;C 多一次交互;B 最小但把问题推给作者。三者都不大。
强制置信缺口
分诊席无法测量的一项:**已经用这个脚手架发布出去的包有多少,它们的 tarball 里有没有 LICENSE。**仓内为零证据,仓外未知。这个数字不改变哪个选项正确,但决定这张卡是「以后别再犯」还是「已经在外面了」。⛔ 不要把仓内没有证据当作外面没有发生。
推荐
**A 或 C。**⛔ 不推荐 B:「不声明」在 npm 生态里默认读作保留所有权利,对一个想要脚手架的作者来说是更坏的默认值,而本卡的出发点是替作者着想。A 与 C 之间取决于是否愿意在脚手架里多问一句 —— 这一句正是「有没有征得同意」的全部区别。
维护者速读
我们的插件脚手架生成的
package.json里写死了 "license": "MIT",但不生成 LICENSE 文件。作者拿它去 npm 发布,包就声称是 MIT 授权、却没有授权原文 —— 而且我们从来没问过作者愿不愿意用 MIT。三条路:补上 MIT 原文(和我们仓内自己的做法一致);或者干脆不替别人写授权(但 npm 会因此当作"保留所有权利");或者建包时问一句、默认 MIT。
请选一个:A(补文件)、B(不写授权)、还是 C(问一句)?
Grade p3. Nothing runs wrongly and nothing is destroyed; the cost is a published artefact that misdescribes itself. Re-grade to p2 if a scaffolded plugin is found published on npm in this state — that turns "our generator could" into "our generator did".
packages/turnsscripts/__tests__/package-files-exist.test.tsred with the verbatim message "declares "license": "MIT" but has no LICENSE file". That pin is this repo's own rule (objectui#3696), so it demonstrates the shape locally only. ⛔ It is not evidence about the published tarball — the same tarball goes to npm for the generator's actual audience, where no gate of ours looks at it at all. Do not cite the red pin as though it were coverage.Question 2 is the crux and is what makes this a decision rather than a port. objectui#3647 settled the identical shape inside this repo by shipping the text. Whether that answer transfers to a foreign author's package is exactly the product judgement above — ⛔ do not treat #3647 as precedent that settles this.
Correctly out of scope for objectui#7524 — that card's dispatch ruling holds the scaffolder's published output constant, so recording rather than changing was right.
Triage seat only — no claim, no dispatch, no code, ⛔ no adjudication.

Ruling recorded — C: the scaffolder asks for the licence, defaults to MIT, and writes the matching LICENSE text; non-interactive runs take the default (director seat, decision batch #91, 2026-09-08)
Provenance (who / verbatim / where): maintainer, live PM chat with the director seat (
session_01TezFG8ZMrNH6n5VTNpPpdH), standing delegation 「继续决策」 — rule per the presented recommendation; reversible by the maintainer. Triage 5583373397 recommended A or C; this seat picks C.Ruled. A manifest that claims a licence must ship its text, and a licence asserted on someone else's package must have been chosen by them. One prompt with a sensible default (
npm init's own shape) is the whole difference between A and consent; the cost is one question on the scaffold path, and--yes/ non-TTY runs take MIT and write the text. ⛔ B refused: an unlicensed manifest reads as all-rights-reserved on npm, the worse default for the author the card is written for.Execution:
