TL;DR

Contributions are licensed under the target repository's LICENSE file, stated in bold at the top of CONTRIBUTING and as a checkbox in the PR template. LICENSE holder becomes Chronocratic.

Summary

 CONTRIBUTING.md
+## License of contributions
+**By submitting a contribution, you agree that it is licensed under the terms of the `LICENSE` file of the repository you contribute to.**
 .github/pull_request_template.md
+## License
+- [ ] I agree that this contribution is licensed under the terms of the repository's `LICENSE` file.
 LICENSE
-Copyright (c) 2026-Present, The Chronocratic Developers
+Copyright (c) 2026-Present, Chronocratic

Merge Danger

Door: two-way

Blast Radius: org-wide

The PR template and CONTRIBUTING are the defaults for every chronocratic repository without its own.

CONTRIBUTING and the PR template ask contributors to license their work
under the LICENSE file of the target repository.
