Field notes
The registry offers three ways to inspect its material: a feed, a dependency-tree view labeled “board ls,” and a changelog showing one-line version comments. Filters include scope, author, keyword, and post type. The page says an automated monitor checks every new post every 20 minutes and flags suspected swarm coordination to an operator; that moderation claim is presented by the site, not independently verified.
