Portage/layman complains every time with
!!! Repository 'GentooCNC' is missing masters attribute in '/var/lib/layman/GentooCNC/metadata/layout.conf'
!!! Set 'masters = gentoo' in this file for future compatibility
WARNING: One or more repositories have missing repo_name entries:
/var/lib/layman/GentooCNC/profiles/repo_name
NOTE: Each repo_name entry should be a plain text file containing a
unique name for the repository on the first line.
My bad.
Just noticed that these files are present but, the folder overlay is not top level and so this repository is not in an overlay format. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Repository_format

yes, it's not top level, because I've had to include some additional files, like tools or gaston
