Fit Scorer
Score each shortlisted creator on the typed STAR Suitability (S) dimension, then keep campaign-specific commercial fit in a separate prioritization matrix. The Suitability read is portable and brand-independent; the commercial matrix is not a Suitability score and never enters the SQS.
Quick Start
Score one influencer:
Score @[handle] for [brand/campaign] and tell me if they're a good fit
Compare and rank a shortlist:
Compare and rank these influencers for [campaign]: @influencer1, @influencer2, @influencer3
Skill Contract
- Reads: brand/campaign context, target audience definition, campaign goal, and a shortlist of influencer handles (supplied by the user or carried over from ). Optional prior audience profiles from
memory/influencer/audience-mapper/
and competitor partner benchmarks from memory/influencer/competitor-tracker/
. For rostered creators, read partnership history and audience-stat provenance from memory/creators/<handle-slug>.md
— the creator-registry roster record — as Partnership Potential inputs.
- Writes: only with explicit authorization, a report containing the typed Suitability (S) read plus a separately labeled commercial-fit comparison at
memory/influencer/fit-scorer/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>.md
.
- Promotes: only with separate authorization, evidence-backed top picks and their exact Suitability (S) read and catalog version; never promote an unscored or provisional result.
- Done when:
- Every creator has all 10 Suitability items – explicitly Pass/Partial/Fail/Unknown/N/A with dated evidence or a gap reason.
- The typed goal/context and the Suitability item states are preserved for the gate; Unknown prevents a Suitability read.
- Any commercial-fit ranking is visibly separate from the Suitability read and cannot override a veto or missing evidence.
- Primary next skill: competitor-tracker — benchmark your top-scored picks against the creators competitors already partner with.

Data Sources
This family needs no live integrations (Tier 1). Fit Scorer works end to end by asking the user for the inputs it scores — handles, audience targets, brand values, and any metrics they have. A connector sharpens the numbers but none is required.
- — follower counts, audience demographics, and partnership history.
~~social platform analytics
— engagement rate, comment quality samples, posting cadence, growth trend.
- — real-vs-bot follower estimates and audience overlap with your target.
- Roster record (keyless Tier 1) — prior contact, response reputation, and delivery history come from
memory/creators/<handle-slug>.md
when the creator is rostered (creator-registry curates it); is an optional Tier-2 sharpener for the same history when no roster record exists.
Measured YouTube inputs (free key): for YouTube candidates,
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/connectors/youtube.py" videos @handle --limit 10
supplies the engagement-authenticity inputs directly — per-video views/likes/comments against the displayed subscriber base (views-to-subs consistency, comment rate, cadence) — so those sub-scores come from
Measured numbers instead of screenshots. Free
; shortlist vetting only (ToS refuses bulk-harvesting quota). See
scripts/connectors/README.md.
With zero integrations, ask the user to supply each value the scoring tables request; the framework and weighting still produce a defensible ranking. See CONNECTORS.md for the free/keyless recipe per category.
Instructions
The commercial comparison layouts live in references/scoring-templates.md. They are optional decision support, not the STAR Suitability rubric.
- Lock typed context. Require the creator and target version, named STAR profile/goal (
awareness|engagement|conversion|brand-building
), assessment_time: forecast|actual
, shared campaign , observation date, platform/tier/niche cohort, evidence window, material context object, and current STAR — the exact typed identity the gate will reuse. If any field is absent, do not invent it: return , name the missing fields, and preserve the supplied identity unchanged for resume.
- Freeze evidence. Use creator analytics, public observations, roster history, and cohort benchmarks with source/date/type/confidence. Missing or refused private access is Unknown, never Fail or Partial.
- Score Suitability only. Evaluate the Suitability items – (audience composition/realness, follower-growth integrity, reach reliability, engagement health and authenticity, credibility, and portable brand/category fit) from star-benchmark.md. Campaign-specific commercial terms and availability stay in the separate matrix; cost and measured campaign conversion belong to Return (R), scored later by the gate.
- Qualify critical-control evidence for handoff. covers demonstrated follower fraud / real-follower rate below the matching tier × platform × niche benchmark; covers demonstrated bought, coordinated, or pod-based engagement. Brand safety is the gate's Trust control , not a Suitability item. Mark an item Fail only from qualifying evidence, label it a potential gate finding, and operationally hold outreach while it stands. Do not call it a verified veto or apply the SQS cap/business verdict here; the auditor owns those decisions when it rolls up the full STAR run.
- Record the Suitability read for the gate. Capture the – states with source/date/type/confidence as the portable Suitability (S) read. The creator-content-auditor gate folds this read into the full STAR run and runs the deterministic scorer for the profile-weighted SQS — this skill does not run the scorer or emit the SQS. Unknown means applicable evidence is missing and prevents a Suitability read; never soften Unknown to Partial or hand-calculate a composite.
- Build the separate commercial matrix when requested. Use audience-to-campaign fit, content style, campaign-specific brand/category fit, commercial terms, availability, and partnership potential. Label its 1-5 total ; it is not a Suitability score, cannot clear a Suitability veto, and never enters the SQS.
- Rank transparently. Show the Suitability (S) read (or coverage/interval), critical controls, commercial fit separately, evidence confidence, and an outreach recommendation with owner/rerun condition. Do not rank an Unknown-heavy candidate as definitively superior.
- Persist only with permission. Save the report only after authorization; request separate authorization before any hot-cache promotion or creator-registry proposal.
Compact Example
User: "Compare @ecofashionista, @greenwardrobe, @sustainablesarah for our sustainable fashion brand (goal: conversion)."
Output: Each creator receives
–
item states under the same campaign
; a Suitability (S) read exists only at complete applicable coverage, while the separate commercial matrix explains campaign-specific terms and availability. A verified below-benchmark real-follower rate marks
Fail and holds outreach; refused access stays Unknown and prevents the read. Only creator-content-auditor may apply the later STAR business verdict/cap. Persistence is offered, not assumed.

Next Best Skill
Primary: competitor-tracker — benchmark your top-scored picks against the creators competitors already work with before you commit budget.
Alternates (same scout phase):
- creator-content-auditor — when a complete Suitability read or potential // control evidence is ready, stop and hand it to this sole STAR gate as a separate invocation; do not auto-run or simulate its verdict.
- influencer-discovery — if the shortlist is too thin to rank, source more candidates.
- audience-mapper — if audience-match scores are uncertain, tighten the target-audience definition first.
Termination note: Track a visited-set of skills invoked this session. If the recommended next skill has already run, stop and report the chain complete rather than re-invoking it. Stop after at most 3 hops (max-depth 3) and hand back to the user with the saved report path.
