# Dependency provenance and release boundary
FrameYap's original code is [MIT licensed](../LICENSE), as selected by the project
owner. This does not relicense external models, fonts, protocols or runtimes.
There is no dependency on another application's checkout, assets or environment.
FrameYap's original code is [MIT licensed](../LICENSE). This does not relicense
models, fonts, protocols, native libraries or Python wheels. There is no dependency
on another application's checkout, assets or environment. **This is an upstream
license inventory, not an audit of a particular release binary. No public release
has been published.** Before shipping any archive, inspect the actual staged
files, their transitive dependencies and notices, and test on a clean supported
host. An external dependency does not make the current archive self-contained.
## Included source
## Included source/assets
`protocol/gamescope-input-method.xml` is the unmodified public Gamescope
**3.16.28** protocol, downloaded from
<https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/blob/3.16.28/protocol/gamescope-input-method.xml>.
SHA-256: `da35711f5d1d750bc47931132a89bf34e6b96a72bafc054d34092d3f42358ec4`.
Its embedded permissive copyright/license notice is preserved. Generated bindings
are build outputs, not hand-written wire encoding. The private protocol may change
with SteamOS; compatibility must be rechecked.
- `protocol/gamescope-input-method.xml`: unmodified public Gamescope **3.16.28**

`assets/fonts/OFL-Inconsolata.txt` retains the license. The font remains OFL,
not MIT, and is not sold by itself. An override font requires its own license.
- Frame controller bindings and the mint-to-blue CPU-rasterized panel were
authored here, using public profile names; no SteamVR driver artwork, MSDF
atlas, other app renderer or protected kernels were copied.
Frame controller bindings were authored here using the observed public input
profile names (`frame_controller`, `/input/grip`, `click`); no SteamVR driver code,
images, protected kernels or another application's assets were extracted for these bindings.
Native staging uses `scripts/stage-native.py`: it includes the chosen font/license
and copied SDL3 and OpenVR notices in `licenses/THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.txt`.
It does **not** bundle ASR. A4 is not closed for release: inspect the final
notice file, especially FreeType attribution, plus the selected native binary
and any bundled wheel/licenses before publishing.
## Bundled font and UI reference
## Native build/runtime inventory
`assets/fonts/Inconsolata-Regular.ttf` is an unmodified copy of Inconsolata Regular.
SHA-256: `e0267abf9d734e2b9f766f8cb7a496b552c57cdfeacfa0efdc5bfd21940ae145`.
Copyright 2006 The Inconsolata Project Authors; **SIL Open Font License 1.1**,
retained in `assets/fonts/OFL-Inconsolata.txt` (line endings and trailing whitespace
normalized; license text unchanged). The reviewed OFL permits
bundling and redistribution with its copyright/license notice; the font remains
OFL, not MIT, and is not sold by itself. Upstream: <https://github.com/googlefonts/Inconsolata>.
The TTF is unchanged. No MSDF atlas, icons, engine code or renderer dependencies
were copied. Unicode coverage is finite; missing glyphs use the face's notdef glyph.
| Component | Upstream license / evidence | Current packaging boundary / action |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Valve OpenVR SDK 2.15.6 | BSD-3-Clause-style license, SDK LICENSE. | Staging copies its loader and explicitly supplied license; verify chosen binary and transitive closure. |
| SDL3 (device trial 3.2.16) | zlib, local `/usr/share/licenses/sdl3/LICENSE`. | Staging copies explicit library and license. Confirm exact build options/version and its transitive libraries. |
| Wayland client + scanner | MIT/Expat-style, local `/usr/share/licenses/wayland/COPYING`. | Client is linked from system; scanner is build-time. If shipped, include copyright/license and audit closure. |
| libxcb | MIT-style with name-use restriction, local `/usr/share/licenses/libxcb/COPYING`. | Xwayland focus guard uses client library at runtime; not bundled by current native stage. Audit exact binary. |
| FreeType 2 | **FreeType Project License (FTL) selected** for this project, local `/usr/share/licenses/freetype2/FTL.TXT`; upstream also offers a GPL option. | Current stage uses system library, not bundled. Credit FreeType Team for use; if distributing its binary, meet FTL binary disclaimer/notice obligations and review the precise build. Do not silently substitute GPL terms. |
| Vulkan loader, driver, system graphics dependencies | Loader/driver licenses vary by build and vendor. | Current stage depends on system Vulkan loader/driver; no GPU runtime is bundled. Audit the chosen loader if ever bundled. |
| Compiler runtime (`libstdc++`, `libgcc_s` when used) | GCC libraries: GPL with **GCC Runtime Library Exception** in upstream distribution; local `/usr/share/licenses/libstdc++/RUNTIME.LIBRARY.EXCEPTION` and `libgcc/...` are exception texts, not a full installed release audit. | Current stage relies on system runtime. Audit dynamic linkage, C++ ABI/`GLIBCXX_*` and exception coverage for *any* bundled compiler libraries; include corresponding complete notices/source obligations as applicable. |
| glibc/loader | GNU LGPL-2.1-or-later for core GNU C Library, with component-specific exceptions and other licenses to inspect. | Current stage relies on system libc/loader. Audit exact target binary symbol versions (`GLIBC_*`), ELF interpreter and its transitive closure; no minimum glibc/`GLIBCXX`/kernel floor is certified here. |
The panel's visual style (rounded mint-to-blue perimeter, dark cards, highlighted
selection) is implemented independently on a single CPU RGBA surface.
CMake installs the font and OFL with assets; native staging defaults to that
font, places the launcher copy at `fonts/font.ttf`, and includes its license in
`THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.txt`. Custom staging fonts still require an explicit license.
## Explicit native build inputs (not vendored)
- Valve OpenVR SDK v2.15.6: BSD-3-Clause-style license, copyright Valve 2015;
retain its LICENSE with redistributed loader binaries.
- SDL3: zlib license; device trial used SDL 3.2.16 built in a private user prefix.
- Wayland client and scanner: retain upstream MIT-style notices.
- libxcb (X11 protocol client): MIT-style license; used only by the opt-in
Xwayland focus observer. Include it in native runtime dependency checks;
no X server is started by normal operation.
- FreeType: choose and comply with its applicable FTL/GPL licensing option.
- Optional font override: the earlier device check used system Hack Regular.
A custom release font must include its own license and assessed glyph coverage;
new builds default to the bundled Inconsolata described above.
- Compiler runtime, libc minimum and transitive shared libraries require a release
dependency audit. Passing a developer build is not a portable-runtime guarantee.
The historical Frame CPU trial used Torch **2.8.0+cpu** on a host with **glibc
2.39**. Those are *observed trial versions*, **not** minimum compatible versions
for FrameYap, Python wheels or a future released artifact. `ldd` on a developer
machine alone is not sufficient: inspect the staged ARM64 binaries with `readelf`
(`NEEDED`, ELF interpreter, symbol-version requirements), `ldd` on a trusted
clean target, actual bundled libraries and notices, and test the final archive on
a clean supported Frame. Check the chosen compiler, CPU instruction/kernel,
FreeType/Wayland/XCB/SDL/OpenVR/Vulkan ABI, Python/native wheels and licenses.
Do not invent a libc floor from a build host's version.
## Redux weights and inference runtime
Public model: <https://huggingface.co/moondream/parakeet-redux>, exact revision
`fad622f25f303105c20d70e201bcc477c88b620c`, model card **CC-BY-4.0**. Attribution:
Moondream/M87 Labs, Parakeet Redux, derived from NVIDIA Parakeet TDT 0.6B v3.
No modifications to the supplied weights are made. Exact model/config/tokenizer
sizes and SHA-256 hashes are recorded in `python/frameyap/model_files.py`.
`fetch-model.py` fetches and retains the original model card alongside the files.
No weights are committed to this repository.
Model: <https://huggingface.co/moondream/parakeet-redux>, exact revision
`fad622f25f303105c20d70e201bcc477c88b620c`, model card **CC-BY-4.0**.
Attribution: Moondream/M87 Labs, Parakeet Redux, derived from NVIDIA Parakeet TDT
0.6B v3. No modifications to the supplied weights are made. Pinned model/config/
tokenizer/card sizes and SHA-256 hashes, source and attribution are recorded in
`assets/backends/redux.json` (schema validated by `python/frameyap/model_files.py`),
not hardcoded in `model_files.py`. `fetch-model.py` fetches and retains the model
card alongside the weights on **explicit** request; neither build/tests nor a
normal app launch downloads them. `scripts/model-status.py` and the native
`--list-models` / `--check-model` interface inspect/hashes local files offline.
No weights are committed to Git.
Inference uses the `moondream` Python package and its `kestrel` / `kestrel-kernels`
dependencies, installed by the user from PyPI into their own environment. Upstream's
Kestrel README states: "Local inference is free and requires no API key"
(<https://github.com/m87-labs/kestrel>); finetuned-model inference needs a Moondream
API key and is not used here. FrameYap's release archives do not vendor or bundle
these packages; they are installed from PyPI onto the user's machine, either by the
user or by the installer at the user's request.
The current Redux worker uses separately provisioned `moondream` Python and its
`kestrel` / `kestrel-kernels` dependencies, not a bundled runtime. Kestrel's
upstream README says “Local inference is free and requires no API key”
(<https://github.com/m87-labs/kestrel>); finetuned-model inference needs an API
key and is **not** this path. The native-only installer **does not run pip**,
provision an interpreter, or make a native-only artifact able to transcribe on
its own. A person supplying a Python environment must review/authorize its
exact dependency closure. No bundled-ASR artifact is licensed/approved by this
inventory.
Other runtime packages (Torch CPU, numpy, tokenizer/native extensions, etc.) need
their own notice/license inventory before a bundled release.
| Python/native package | Upstream license inventory (not a wheel audit) | Release action |
| --- | --- | --- |
| PyTorch / Torch CPU | PyTorch project: BSD-3-Clause; third-party components/wheels carry additional notices and dependencies. | No Torch wheels bundled. Pin CPU-only ARM64 wheel if building a distribution; audit its `LICENSE`, `NOTICE`, `third_party`/wheel contents and `NEEDED`/symbol versions. |
| NumPy | NumPy core: BSD-3-Clause; dependencies/embedded algorithms carry additional BSD, MIT, 0BSD, zlib, CC0 and other notices depending on wheel. Local `python-numpy` 2.5.3 package metadata (`/usr/lib/python3.14/site-packages/numpy-2.5.3.dist-info/METADATA`) declares `BSD-3-Clause AND 0BSD AND MIT AND Zlib AND CC0-1.0` with many `License-File` entries (different from the historical trial environment). | Not bundled. Keep *all* license files and inspect the exact target wheel, BLAS/OpenBLAS and runtime closure before redistribution. |
| Hugging Face `tokenizers` | Upstream `huggingface/tokenizers` is Apache-2.0; native/Rust crate dependencies need separate inventory. | Not bundled. Confirm actual installed wheel version, package LICENSE/NOTICE and transitive Rust/native code if ever distributed. |
| `moondream`, Kestrel/kernels/native, Python interpreter | Distinct packages with distinct license files and native transitive code; Kestrel local-use statement is not a blanket redistribution license. | None bundled. Exact versions, permissions, wheel notices, CPython build and native linkage require review before any runtime bundle. |
## CPU trial dependency choice
Development CPU trial *interfaces*, not package-floor promises: moondream
**2.4.0**, kestrel **0.8.0**, kernels **0.7.0**, native **0.1.8**, Python
**3.12.3**, Torch **2.8.0+cpu** on ARM64. An unqualified moondream install
initially resolved CUDA-enabled Torch and NVIDIA wheels; the owned trial venv
was corrected before measurement (`torch.version.cuda is None`). Do **not**
repeat unconstrained `pip install moondream` as a CPU setup recipe.
Trial interface pins: moondream **2.4.0**, kestrel **0.8.0**, kernels **0.7.0**,
native **0.1.8**, Python **3.12.3**, Torch **2.8.0+cpu** on ARM64. An unqualified
moondream install initially resolved a CUDA-enabled Torch and NVIDIA wheels;
these were replaced/removed from the owned venv before measurement. The measured
Torch reported `torch.version.cuda is None`. Do not repeat an unconstrained
`pip install moondream` as a CPU setup recipe.
For eventual packaging research, a standalone CPython 3.12.14 ARM64 distribution
was downloaded but not bundled with any ASR runtime:

SHA-256 `577b4bec0793ad1ff0cbff9adbd0df078eddde38a4c41bf5d83ad381a85ee39d`.
Its included licenses and compatible native dependencies still require review
before any release. No public prebuilt FrameYap release has been published.
Its own licenses and native compatibility need review before any release.
