Cause of death: the autopsy

First scored 12 out of 25 after news of an agent ignoring users' permissions: it would need to run other people's agents, and selling security claims carries risk. Two days later a 'security scan for agent skills and plugins' scored 13 and was killed as the same idea, for the same reason.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The report left no way back.
