The original source code in this repository is licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0. See [LICENSE](LICENSE).

pineforge-hpo is designed to operate on compiled strategy plugins through the public PineForge C ABI. That Apache-2.0 path does not require redistributing a PineScript transpiler.

The optional direct-PineScript workflow may invoke the separately licensed pineforge_codegen Python module through the pinned external/pineforge-codegen-oss git submodule. It is not relicensed by this repository, and users are responsible for complying with its terms. The submodule need not be initialized when running an already compiled strategy plugin. Git submodules preserve independent copyright and license boundaries; their contents are not bundled into the Apache-2.0 HPO core.

The native optimizer integrates dlib's global function search. CMake downloads the pinned dlib v20.0.1 source archive from its official repository by default; a build may explicitly select an exact-version system package instead. dlib is distributed under the Boost Software License 1.0, which permits use and redistribution subject to retaining its copyright and permission notice. The upstream project and full license text are available at https://github.com/davisking/dlib and THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES/dlib.txt.
