 - The Python packages that are downloaded from `actions/python-versions` are originally compiled from source in `/opt/hostedtoolcache/` with the [--enable-shared](https://github.com/actions/python-versions/blob/94f04ae6806c6633c82db94c6406a16e17decd5c/builders/ubuntu-python-builder.psm1#L35) flag, which makes them non-relocatable.
 - Create an environment variable called `AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY` and set it to `/opt/hostedtoolcache`. This controls where the runner downloads and installs tools.
-  - In the same shell that your runner is using, type `export AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY=/opt/hostedtoolcache`
+  - In the same shell that your runner is using, type `export AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY=/opt/hostedtoolcache`.
   - A more permanent way of setting the environment variable is to create a `.env` file in the same directory as your runner and to add `AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY=/opt/hostedtoolcache`. This ensures the variable is always set if your runner is configured as a service.
 - Create a directory called `hostedtoolcache` inside `/opt`.
 - The user starting the runner must have write permission to the `/opt/hostedtoolcache` directory. It is not possible to start the Linux runner with `sudo` and the `/opt` directory usually requires root privileges to write to. Check the current user and group that the runner belongs to by typing `ls -l` inside the runners root directory.
 - The runner can be granted write access to the `/opt/hostedtoolcache` directory using a few techniques:
-  - The user starting the runner is the owner, and the owner has write permission
-  - The user starting the runner is in the owning group, and the owning group has write permission
-  - All users have write permission
-- One quick way to grant access is to change the user and group of `/opt/hostedtoolcache` to be the same as the runners using `chown`
-    - `sudo chown runner-user:runner-group opt/hostedtoolcache/`
+  - The user starting the runner is the owner, and the owner has write permission.
+  - The user starting the runner is in the owning group, and the owning group has write permission.

+- One quick way to grant access is to change the user and group of `/opt/hostedtoolcache` to be the same as the runners using `chown`.
+    - `sudo chown runner-user:runner-group opt/hostedtoolcache/`.
 - If your runner is configured as a service and you run into problems, make sure the user that the service is running as is correct. For more information, you can [check the status of your self-hosted runner](https://help.github.com/en/actions/hosting-your-own-runners/configuring-the-self-hosted-runner-application-as-a-service#checking-the-status-of-the-service).

 - Set the `AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY` environment variable to `/Users/runner/hostedtoolcache`.

 We ask that you include a link to a successful run that utilizes the changes you are working on. For example, if your changes are in the branch `newAwesomeFeature`, then show an example run that uses `setup-python@newAwesomeFeature` or `my-fork@newAwesomeFeature`. This will help speed up testing and help us confirm that there are no breaking changes or bugs.
 
+### Licensed
+
+This repository uses a tool called [Licensed](https://github.com/github/licensed) to verify third party dependencies. You may need to locally install licensed and run `licensed cache` to update the dependency cache if you install or update a production dependency. If licensed cache is unable to determine the dependency, you may need to modify the cache file yourself to put the correct license. You should still verify the dependency, licensed is a tool to help, but is not a substitute for human review of dependencies.

 ### Releases
 
 There is a `master` branch where contributor changes are merged into. There are also release branches such as `releases/v1` that are used for tagging (for example the `v1` tag) and publishing new versions of the action. Changes from `master` are periodically merged into a releases branch. You do not need to create any PR that merges changes from master into a releases branch.
