The MIT license above applies to the ORIGINAL romdev code authored in this
repository — the MCP server, tools, scaffolds, build glue, JavaScript host,
and documentation.

romdev bundles and redistributes third-party emulator cores, compiler
toolchains, and game runtime libraries, each under its OWN license. The MIT
grant above does NOT relicense those components; see NOTICE for the full
inventory and the license that governs each.

GAMES YOU BUILD WITH ROMDEV ARE YOURS — including to sell commercially. A ROM
romdev produces contains only your own code plus permissive runtime libraries
(SGDK, PVSnesLib, libtonc/libgba, hUGEDriver, FamiTone, maxmod —
MIT/ISC/zlib/public-domain), compiled by toolchains that carry runtime
exceptions. Nothing romdev places in your ROM restricts using or selling it.

The only license caveat concerns redistributing the romdev TOOL BUNDLE itself:
two bundled emulator cores (snes9x, genesis_plus_gx) are under non-commercial
licenses, so the bundle as a whole is distributed as source-available and free
for non-commercial use (and isn't labeled OSI "open source"), even though this
repository's own code is MIT. Those cores are a dev instrument that never ships
inside a built game. Read NOTICE before redistributing the tool bundle.
