The input description says this should be an SPDX license identifier, but LicenseRef-NONE is a custom LicenseRef-* (and typically requires a corresponding license text under LICENSES/ for REUSE compliance). If the intent is truly “no license”, consider using an SPDX-supported sentinel like NONE/NOASSERTION (if supported by the underlying reuse tool) or update the workflow/action to support omitting the --license flag entirely; otherwise update the description to indicate a full SPDX license expression (including LicenseRef-*) and ensure downstream REUSE lint won’t fail due to a missing license text.
