  <!-- Tools.
       /tools/duty-spread is DELIBERATELY WITHHELD until it has been exercised
       by hand (owner's call, 2026-09-19). It shipped listed here, which was
       premature: a sitemap entry is an active request to crawl, and the page's
       figures and copy are still being worked on. Re-add it with a current
       lastmod at the same 0.9 priority as the guides when the workout is done,
       then submit the URL in Search Console.

       NOTE: the home page links to the tool, so Google can still discover it
       organically. Removing it here withdraws the invitation; it does not
       prevent indexing. If it must stay out of the index entirely, the page
       needs a robots noindex meta tag instead, which then has to be
       remembered and removed again later. -->

  <!-- Tools. Free, no sign-up. Withheld from 2026-09-19 until the page had
       been exercised by hand; re-added the same day once the four-state
       result, the quota detector and the remedy claims were corrected and
       live. Priority matches the guides: this answers a search directly
       rather than describing the product. -->

  <!-- app.vectelos.com is the application, not a content page. Deliberately not

       marketing site above. Reached via "Sign In" links instead. -->
