Research direction

Compare the published PyPI metadata for versions 2026.7.0 and 2026.6.0, focusing on how the license is declared. Trace the release or packaging entry point that produces this metadata, then verify that the published package reports BSD-3-Clause and passes the LicenseCheck check.
