Four things Joe asked for, one of which needed a decision he did not
make.
WHITE BUTTON LABELS. "White on both themes" could not be done by reusing
--brand: white on the dark theme's #9896E0 is 2.70:1, which fails AA
outright and would have looked washed out rather than crisp. Buttons now
have their own background — #5A58C8 light, #5A58D6 dark, the same
periwinkle the desktop app already uses for its primary button — at
5.52:1 and 5.73:1. The label is white in both, which is what makes the
control read as the same object when the theme changes. Contrast was
computed before choosing the colour rather than after somebody
complained.
PRICING. Cards are equal-height flex columns so the buttons line up
regardless of how many features each lists. The featured tier is marked
by a rule along its top edge and a badge rather than a different fill —
it is the same object, just the one being pointed at. Differentiating
features are bold, each tier carries a one-line footnote answering the
question the price raises ("Annual only", "Over 20 seats? We will quote
you"), and the feature text now says what the thing does rather than
naming it: "a malicious binary is refused before it runs, in 2 ms".
COPY BUTTONS are a clipboard icon that becomes a green tick, with
aria-label toggling to "Copied" so it is not a visual-only signal.
GEO AND SEO — the part with real leverage:
- JSON-LD SoftwareApplication with 11 features and all three offers,
and a FAQPage with nine questions.
- A VISIBLE FAQ backing that schema. Schema describing content that is
not on the page is both invalid and dishonest, so the nine questions
are really there, in <details> elements, and they are the questions
somebody actually asks before installing a root daemon.
- llms.txt — a structured summary written for a model deciding whether
to recommend Hound, including a section of honest limitations.
Linux only, no RPM package yet, gate needs root, small rule pack,
full-download definitions. A recommendation that omits those is
worse than none, and a model that repeats them is a model that got
the answer right.
- robots.txt naming GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended,
Applebot-Extended, CCBot and others explicitly. Hound exists partly
to be used BY coding agents; an agent reading this site should not
have to guess whether it is welcome. Several of those crawlers treat
silence as refusal, and silence is not the same as consent.
- Canonical, Open Graph, Twitter card, theme-color, sitemap.
Every number in the structured data and in llms.txt is measured or comes
from a published feed. No ratings, no awards, no "trusted by" — a model
that quotes a fabricated number does more damage than one that quotes
nothing, because it is confident.
All four assets verified live: HTML 200, robots 200, sitemap 200,
llms.txt 200, and both JSON-LD blocks parse from the served page.
