Description

Hi Hack Club HQ! While I may be considered inactive in the community since months ago ([context](https://gitlab.com/andreijiroh-dev/hackclub-final-signoff/-/blob/main/README.md?ref_type=heads)), I am reaching here to ask the question "which license does Hack Club Identity/Auth codebase apply here"? I could file a patch with the AGPL-3.0 as the license to match HCB's, but because there are contributors from the community this ticket exists to avoid possible headaches.

**Additional context**: I am currently maintaining the unofficial GitLab.com namespace for @hackclub-community (cue me keeping read-only mirrors in case GitHub goes down again), more specifically for @hackclub-alumni Society subgroup and I am in the process of renewing the complimentary Ultimate plan as part of GitLab for Open-source Program ([see requirements in the GitLab Handbook](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/developer-relations/programs/open-source-program/#who-qualifies-for-the-gitlab-for-open-source-program)). If anyone's using GitLab.com and want to take over the admin chores there, let me know so I can do the migration flow behind the scenes.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the repository root for existing license or contribution guidance, then review the issue's AGPL-3.0 suggestion and the repository's community contribution context. The work is done when maintainers decide which license applies and the corresponding license file is added to the codebase.
