docs: the legacy project was DeepSeek-TUI, not "DeepSeek CLI"

[Hmbown]

No-Issue: corrects a project name in a copyright attribution line; no behaviour change and no tracker entry

Both LICENSE files and one app-server doc comment attributed copyright to "DeepSeek CLI Contributors" — a project name that never existed. The lineage is DeepSeek-TUI, which is also what the retained legacy npm package is called (npm/deepseek-tui, kept private and never republished).

This corrects a project name, not the license.

Verified: with line 3 removed, both LICENSE files are byte-identical to their previous contents, so the MIT text, the year range and the copyright-holder shape are untouched.

LICENSE:3                     Copyright (c) 2024-2025 [-DeepSeek CLI-]{+DeepSeek-TUI+} Contributors
extensions/vscode/LICENSE:3   Copyright (c) 2024-2025 [-DeepSeek CLI-]{+DeepSeek-TUI+} Contributors
crates/app-server/src/lib.rs  /// CodeWhale began life as [-a DeepSeek CLI-]{+DeepSeek-TUI+}; ...

Deliberately not changed, because they are not attribution:

• crates/tui/src/tools/review.rs — deepseek-ai/deepseek-cli is a test URL for the PR-URL parser
• crates/cli/src/lib.rs — deepseek-cli-auth-*-test are temp filenames
• npm/deepseek-tui/package.json — the deprecated legacy package name

No build impact: the Rust change is prose inside a /// comment.

Note

Low Risk
Documentation and copyright attribution only; no executable code or license terms changed.

Overview
Fixes incorrect attribution to a non-existent "DeepSeek CLI" project by renaming the copyright holder to DeepSeek-TUI Contributors in the root LICENSE and extensions/vscode/LICENSE. Only line 3 of each license file changes; MIT terms, year range, and holder wording stay the same.

Updates the legacy_deepseek_compat doc comment in crates/app-server/src/lib.rs so it says CodeWhale began as DeepSeek-TUI, matching the real lineage and the legacy npm/deepseek-tui package. No runtime or API behavior changes—comment-only in Rust.

Review: docs — DeepSeek-TUI attribution fix

• Gather context (diff, changed files)
• Understand the request (doc-only correction, review per repo guidelines)
• Verify LICENSE files remain byte-identical apart from the name change
• Check the app-server comment change and confirm no other stray references
• Post final review

Summary: This is a clean, minimal, correct documentation fix. Verified via git diff origin/main...HEAD:

• LICENSE and extensions/vscode/LICENSE: only line 3 changes (DeepSeek CLI Contributors → DeepSeek-TUI Contributors), no other bytes touched — matches the PR description's claim.
• crates/app-server/src/lib.rs:38: doc-comment prose only (/// CodeWhale began life as DeepSeek-TUI; ...), no code/behavior impact.
• Repo-wide grep for DeepSeek CLI after the change returns zero matches — the rename is complete and consistent, no stray attributions left behind.

Checked against the review priorities (correctness, provider/model-route safety, reuse/simplification, tests, security) — none apply here; this is prose-only with no build or runtime impact. The PR's own "deliberately not changed" list (review.rs test URL, cli/src/lib.rs temp filenames, npm/deepseek-tui/package.json legacy package name) is correct — those are not attribution and shouldn't be touched.

No issues found. LGTM.

Codewhale review

Documentation-only PR that corrects the legacy project name in copyright attribution from the non-existent "DeepSeek CLI Contributors" to "DeepSeek-TUI Contributors" in both LICENSE files and updates a Rust doc comment to match.

Looks good. The change is limited to copyright attribution and a doc comment, has no runtime or API impact, and matches the retained legacy package name. No tests or tracker entry are required for this kind of correction.
