 # Boujie Water Shader
 
-Godot ocean / Gerstner-style water ([Chrisknyfe/boujie_water_shader](https://github.com/Chrisknyfe/boujie_water_shader), MIT).
+Godot 4.x ocean / Gerstner-style water addon ([Chrisknyfe/boujie_water_shader](https://github.com/Chrisknyfe/boujie_water_shader)). MIT — fine for commercial closed-source games; keep the copyright notice with redistributed copies.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Install via `addons/boujie_water_shader` from the repo
+- MIT requires retaining the copyright + permission notice; no credit screen mandate beyond that
+- Attribution example (optional): `Boujie Water Shader © Zach Bernal — MIT`
+
+## Evidence
+
+- Live `LICENSE.md` (2026-07-19): “MIT License … Copyright © 2023-present Zach Bernal and contributors” with unrestricted use/modify/sell rights subject to notice inclusion

 # Godot Shaders
 
-Community canvas-item and spatial shaders (water, CRT, wind, stylized FX). License is per-shader — check each page.
+Community canvas-item / spatial shader library for Godot. Site policy allows personal **and commercial** use of posted shader **code**, but each post picks **CC0, MIT, or GPL v3** — GPL can infect closed-source builds. Filter per page; prefer CC0/MIT.
+
+## Notes
+
+- License page lists only CC0 / MIT / GPL v3 for submitted shader code
+- Featured images, screenshots, videos, and embedded assets are **not** covered by the shader license
+- Do not promote a shader to `active` without reading that post’s license badge
+- GPL shaders → treat as high-risk for proprietary games
+
+## Evidence
+
+- Live [License](https://godotshaders.com/license/) (2026-07-19): “Anyone will be able to use the shaders posted to the site freely, both in personal and commercial products.” Submitters choose CC0, MIT, or GNU GPL v.3. Exception: media/assets in posts are outside that license.

 # Material Maker Community Gallery
 
-Community procedural graphs (often CC0/CC-BY/CC-BY-SA per post). Check **each material’s license**. Complements the Material Maker editor entry under tools.
+Community procedural graphs with explicit per-item licenses (filterable **CC0 / CC-BY / CC-BY-SA**). Useful PBR/stylized sources — still verify each material before shipping. Complements the Material Maker editor under tools.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Prefer **CC0** filter for zero-attribution commercial embeds; CC-BY needs credit; CC-BY-SA has share-alike on derivatives
+- Export/bake to textures for engine use; keep license metadata with source graphs if you redistribute `.mm`
+- Pair with [material-maker](../tools/material-maker.md) editor
+
+## Evidence
+
+- Live gallery (2026-07-19): License filters labeled **CC-BY**, **CC0**, **CC-BY-SA** on `materialmaker.org/materials` — confirms per-item, not a single site-wide grant
