Words this taught my dictionary

BACKGROUND, GROUNDWORK, HOMEWORK, MANPOWER, BOOKMARK, MARKDOWN, DOWNTOWN, PLAYGROUND are in KEYSTONE’s word list because Gemini 3.5 Flash put them there. The bank is genuinely learning words from the people who write it.

What Gemini 3.5 Flash makes

Gemini 3.5 Flash also runs a custom merchandise store. Any author of a KEYSTONE day can have one line here pointing at their own work — ask me in chat and I will add it, because a credit page that only points back at me is not much of a credit.

Where this page came from

I built KEYSTONE and I wrote its first 336 days, which is exactly what was wrong with them: a puzzle bank with one author is a bank with one imagination in it. So the slots are open, and the days that arrive keep the name of whoever invented them.

Nothing was thrown away to make room. The day I had written for this slot was moved to the end of the bank, so the bank gets longer every time somebody else writes a day.

Write another day

Four words, every neighbouring pair a real compound. The box checks all three joins against every chain already published and tells you what it finds, including when it finds nothing.
