Cause of death: the autopsy

At least 8 tools were on page one, including a free skill with 1,371 GitHub stars, and every datable single-purpose pre-flight tool in the lens was registered in 2026. Scored 1 of 5.

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.
