Score: 6.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 6, Documentation: 7, Utility: 4)
Gödelify uses Gödel numbering to encode any file as a prime number, compressing the data and appending metadata until the result is prime. It's interesting as a novel application of number theory and prime sieving to data encoding, inspired by historical use in free speech protests.
