Yeah, I get it. A lot of times it's all about guessing the right verb. There is a "help" command which has pointers on how to play (thanks to a handy "extended help" library for Inform7)

The source code for this is in the public domain. If anyone wants to copy the behavior, there is no reason to consult me first.

Happy to add this. Do you happen to know if this affects systems doing the scraping for social previews, which are already parsing meta tags?

As of right now, I have almost zero information about who is using it. It's currently running on Vercel as a hobby project, and I've already used my single free analytics add-on for another project. (Will I run out of free Vercel

Exactly the reason we started with First Republic! But yes, the new SVB experience (SVB Go) has been fantastic relative to when we used them a decade ago.
