  description: 'List a software tool on Another Directory without an account. An AI agent writes the listing and sends it with the maker''s email; nothing is generated on the server. Then it adds the badge to the tool''s site (free plan) or pays for Pro or Boost, and the listing goes live. Editing the text later needs an account with the same email.
