📰 Story angles
For tech press: 1424 production-grade tools, no client-side framework or account system, no display ads, and no logins. The published site is static HTML on GitHub Pages; the repository's Python and Node scripts build catalogue indexes and run verification checks. The codebase is the story. Anonymised Google Analytics runs on the standalone pages for measurement (it does not place ads). The 1424 tool cards are HTML fragments with no analytics of their own.
For consumer / lifestyle press: "One site for every quick tool you'd usually search for, with no sign-up and no popups." Coverage angle: how to ditch the SEO-spam calculator sites.
For community / indie press: The site is fully open-source under CC-BY 4.0. Anyone can fork it, run it locally, or build on top of it. The work is the commons.
