What does "never use an eyebrow" mean here? I don't see any eyebrows.

I only learned about "eyebrows" in the past few months when Claude et al insisted on adding them to everything. It's the short line of text above the first header, usually in small all-caps.

LLMs default to this component hierarchy (eyebrow -> h1 -> lead paragraph) because Tailwind landing page templates heavily feature it. Simon's tip prevents that generic template footprint.
Suggestion: tell your agent to drop the marketing speak and never use an eyebrow. That should get rid of the "Nothing ever leaves your device" and "Ten utilities. Zero uploads." headings.
(I have to tell mine to do this all the time.)
