Use it
curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xerj-org/xerj/corpus-hub/tools/xerj-code/hub/oss-license-texts.json
xerj corpus add --from ./oss-license-texts.json
xerj corpus index oss-license-texts then xerj code oss-license-texts "your question"

Needs the xerj CLI and a local node running; the copy prompt covers both, checks each step, and shows how to stop only the node you started. No shell: the MCP tool xerj_code_search with corpus: "oss-license-texts", once the corpus is indexed on the node.
