Hi I think you are conflating Contributor policy with code license. The license for the source code is at https://github.com/sourcegraph/zoekt/blob/main/LICENSE and clearly gives you wide rights wrt use, modification and re-distribution. If you want to contribute code upstream you will need to obey by they CLA but that is a different matter.
I am not familiar with zoekt community so you'll need to research how to ask questions. Looks like people ask questions in GitHub issues..
