Adds a LICENSE file releasing the repository under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 with an explicit carve-out forbidding commercial use, derivative redistribution, and use of any content or dataset for training, fine-tuning, or benchmarking commercial AI/ML models. Adds a research-only license banner directly under the README header so the terms are visible to every visitor. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
