 ## Done
 
+- [x] **The hero headline and lead**, the three facts under them, and the FAQ
+      in `web/src/content/faq.json`.
+- [x] **The footer disclaimer**, in both `components/Footer.astro` and
+      `chrome.ts`. This was the placeholder that cost something while it sat
+      there. It says the project is non-commercial and in alpha, and sends a
+      reader to Credits for attribution, copyright and trademark — where the
+      Topps, Catalyst, Microsoft and Bluesky notices already are, rather than
+      restating them on every page.
+- [x] **The `<meta>` descriptions and the image alt** in `Base.astro`, and the
+      404 and blog pages' own. Two of them read "Grep borborygmus before this
+      ships", which is what a shared link unfurled as.
+- [x] **The social card's tagline**, and with it the card itself: it was drawn
+      in a system grotesque rather than the site's own faces, which is
+      [publishing](publishing.md)'s entry rather than this one's.
+- [x] **The shared report page's tagline**, `TAGLINE` in `services/api/src/share.rs`
+      — the line beside the way in for a reader who arrived from a shared post.
+- [x] **The signed-out lobby-invite splash**, in `web/src/screens/lobby-invite.ts`.
+      `lobby-invite.test.mjs` guarded it as a placeholder and that guard is
+      gone with the words arriving: a test that fails because the work it was
+      waiting for landed is not a test any more.
 - [x] **The Hangar placeholder screen**, deleted rather than written: Hangar is
       a name on the masthead marked under construction, and there is no screen
       behind it to hold copy. See [forces](forces.md).
