The whole codebase is free under the MIT licence, and you can run as many stores as you want with it. The harness and custom development are paid products; neither is required to run a store.

Yes. The whole codebase is MIT licensed. Run it, sell with it, fork it, use it for client work — at no cost.
The repository is public and the demo store is live. There is nothing to unlock.
The harness, if you maintain a fork. Custom development, if you want us building with your team. Neither is required to run a store.
Twenty-five checks that run in CI and fail the build when a change breaks a rule the codebase depends on. The rules behind them are included, so AI coding tools write changes that fit.
