One thing to look at

no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.

What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Run project commands with just. Check for justfile in project root, list available tasks, execute common operations like test, build, lint. Triggers on: run tests, build project, list tasks, check available commands, run script, project commands.

The file declares its own license as MIT. That is the author’s claim about this one file, and it is not the same thing as the license GitHub reports for the repository, which is listed with the other numbers below.
