Custom or non-standard license

Proprietary license, not AGPL-3.0 (the root repo's LICENSE explicitly defers to this subdirectory override for packages/server). Free for personal use, but prohibits installing the software on a server and providing access to third parties for a fee, or granting third parties commercial use, without written authorization from the licensor — a direct conflict with Bitflake's managed-hosting model.
