489.105 (3) specifically states that a "contractor" is a person
who has *contracted* for a project for *compensation*. No
contract, not a contractor. No compenastion, not a contractor. If
a person is not a contractor per the definition of a contractor,
then the person probably does not need licensure under this
statute. Why not give an attorney $100 to get his read on this.
You can post up what the attorney says and prove your position.

489.105  Definitions.--As used in this part:

(3)  "Contractor" means the person who is qualified for, and
shall only be responsible for, the project contracted for and
means, except as exempted in this part, the person who, for
compensation, undertakes to, submits a bid to, or does himself or
herself or by others construct, repair, alter, remodel, add to,
demolish, subtract from, or improve any building or structure,
including related improvements to real estate, for others or for
resale to others; and whose job scope is substantially similar to
the job scope described in one of the subsequent paragraphs of
this subsection. For the purposes of regulation under this part,
"demolish" applies only to demolition of steel tanks over 50 feet
in height; towers over 50 feet in height; other structures over
50 feet in height, other than buildings or residences over three
stories tall; and buildings or residences over three stories
tall. Contractors are subdivided into two divisions, Division I,
consisting of those contractors defined in paragraphs (a)-(c),
and Division II, consisting of those contractors defined in
paragraphs (d)-(q):
