Problem Description

Hello, i would like to add several opensource projects to context7, but their license agreements clearly state that i need to attribute the work to the original project. That is not possible with Context7 at the moment.

Proposed Solution

I will suggest you add two fields on upload of content: License and Attribution and make them available both for content referred to as websites but also via the context7.json file - and then display them clearly, both when accessed via the MCP api and on the web page. I suspect that there are a lot of content on Context7 atm., where licenses are violated due to missing attribution.

Thanks in advance!
