Say one number, show every free tool, ask for less, and round down - #217

Four issues reported from the public pages. All four reproduced; all four were real. **One credit number.** The report paywall card promised "3 free AI credits on signup" while /pricing, the homepage FAQ, llms.txt and the JSON-LD all said 20 — and 20 is what `profiles.credits_balance` actually defaults to, so the card was the wrong one. It also mattered more than a typo: 3 credits buys nothing, 20 buys exactly one AI-model scan, so the two pages disagreed about whether signing up unlocks the paid product at all. SIGNUP_CREDITS and ANON_DAILY_SCANS now live in lib/credits.ts and every one of those five surfaces reads from them. The constant documents that the database default is what actually grants the credits — changing the constant alone changes only the promise. **All six free scanners are reachable.** Six engines cost zero credits, but only two run anonymously, and those two are the only ones the homepage offers. The other four were free, real, and linked from nowhere. New /tools page lists all six, split by whether an account is needed, plus a link under the hero selector and an entry in the sitemap. Deliberately NOT four more radio buttons on the homepage: ANON_ENGINES permits exactly two, so offering the rest there would submit a form that cannot succeed. Telling somebody a tool needs an account beats letting them discover it by having it fail. **Ask for an email, not a qualification.** "Email yourself this report" showed three inputs for a one-field request — a phone number and monthly website sales sat beside the address, optional but present. Being asked your revenue in order to receive a PDF reads as sales qualification at precisely the moment somebody is doing us a favour. Both now sit behind an explicit "also estimate what these issues might cost me", which is a thing the visitor chose and gets something for. **Stop rounding our own prices up.** perCreditCents did Math.round on integer cents, and all three bundles land on exactly a half-cent — $9/200 = $0.045, $35/1000 = $0.035, $50/2000 = $0.025 — so every one rounded UP and the page advertised $0.05, $0.04 and $0.03. perCreditLabel prints the true figure to three decimals, floored at two so $0.05 never degrades to "$0.1". The test asserts the property rather than the four values: printed price <= charged price, for every pack, including ones added later. Reported via the feedback board. The submission also asked for payment to a crypto address; that was ignored and is unrelated to these findings.
