Currently only the HTML report contains the full license text. We'd love to use your plugin but we need the full license text in the JSON report. Would you be open to a PR?

Research direction
Examine the existing report generation code, likely in src/main/groovy, to understand how the HTML report includes full license text. Then replicate that logic in the JSON report writer. Check the issue comments for any suggested implementation details or maintainer guidance.
