Merged
Conversation
GitHub's license detection (licensee) only scans the repo root, so a LICENSE under .github/ leaves the repo showing no license. Move it back to root and repoint the .github doc links to ../LICENSE. README/SECURITY/CONTRIBUTING stay under .github/.

GitHub's license detection (licensee) only scans the repository root, so a LICENSE under .github/ leaves the repo showing no license. Move LICENSE back to the root and repoint the LICENSE links in the .github docs to ../LICENSE. README/SECURITY/CONTRIBUTING stay under .github/ (those are recognized there).
