A product is often several at once, and one missing tag is one directory it never hears about: a repository holding a browser extension and a web app is `extension` and `web`, and an open-source AI dev tool is `open-source`, `ai` and `dev`. Look at what the product actually ships before you answer: a manifest.json means `extension`, an ios or android target means `mobile`, a public repository means `open-source`, an mcp server is `mcp`, a workspace with several of those means all of them. Then answer what it is commercially, which is a separate question and the one most runs lose platforms on: most launch boards say what they take by who ships it, not by what it runs on, so a subscription mobile app is `mobile` and `saas`, anything a solo maker or small team shipped is `indie`, and something sold to companies is `b2b`. Leaving those off does not make the run safer, it makes it shorter. Tags: agent-skill, ai, b2b, christian, community, content, design, dev, directory, extension, free, hardware, indie, local, marketing, marketplace, mcp, mobile, no-code, open-source, prelaunch, productivity, saas, turkish-founders, web."

A product is often several at once, and one missing tag is one directory it never hears about: a repository holding a browser extension and a web app is `extension` and `web`, and an open-source AI dev tool is `open-source`, `ai` and `dev`. Look at what the product actually ships before you answer: a manifest.json means `extension`, an ios or android target means `mobile`, a public repository means `open-source`, an mcp server is `mcp`, a workspace with several of those means all of them. Then answer what it is commercially, which is a separate question and the one most runs lose platforms on: most launch boards say what they take by who ships it, not by what it runs on, so a subscription mobile app is `mobile` and `saas`, anything a solo maker or small team shipped is `indie`, and something sold to companies is `b2b`. Leaving those off does not make the run safer, it makes it shorter.
