Unedited Scaffold Branding

Your page title is still the default your framework generated.

Why it matters

Your page title is still the default your framework generated. It is the single clearest signal that a site was deployed without a launch pass, it is what appears in every search result and browser tab, and nothing errors to tell you — which is why it survives to production so often.

How ShipReady detects it

Launch signals carried by a PAGE's own markup: basic metadata, and a default framework title left in place. Genuinely per-page - a polished homepage routinely hides a /pricing that still says "Create Next App", which is exactly the defect this catches. Reads only the already-fetched HTML and issues no requests of its own.

Detection is deterministic. ShipReady reports this only when it observes the condition directly, and prefers to miss a real problem over inventing one. Rule version 1.10.0.

How to fix it

This is the prompt ShipReady puts in your report — written to be pasted straight into Cursor, Claude Code, or whichever assistant built the app.

The page title is still a default framework/scaffold value (e.g. 'Create Next App'). Set a real <title> that reflects your product — an unedited default looks unfinished and hurts search and social previews.
