Cause of death: the autopsy

Anthropic published its seven-layer review recipe for free and sells Code Review for Claude Code itself, and the graveyard already holds AI code review. It was the day's best idea at 16 of 25, and the radar said to use the recipe on the farm instead.

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.
