Kelly Creators
Overview
Kelly Creators is a Busabase Cloud App-in-Skill. Its canonical product
surface is the AirApp in Busabase, not a separate local-data product. The
same Hono source supports an explicitly requested local preview with OAuth
connection bootstrap. Use this skill as Kelly's personal influencer/creator
marketing operator: it keeps a dashboard over creator candidates, outreach
drafts, campaign briefs, and ROI, plus a review queue of agent-drafted
outreach and pre-publication content gates. The skill sweeps candidates from
whatever Kelly feeds it — a niche, a brand brief, a competitor's creators, an
exported list — scores fit, drafts outreach and briefs, and executes
approved sends only through other channels (for example instagram-outreach
or kelly-email) after explicit approval.
An item is a creator engagement: handle, platform, followers, engagement_rate, fit_score, niche, est_rate, proposed_action, suggested_reply, and the standard status/decision fields. A second item type is a quality gate on a live creator's draft post.
Default behavior is AirApp-first. Unless the user explicitly asks only for
explanation, update Busabase directly and give the user the clickable AirApp
URL. Start localhost only when local preview/debugging is explicitly
requested; it uses the same Busabase resources and never offers another data
provider. Use chat-only mode only when the user says "纯聊天", "chat only", "不要打开 UI", or similar; in that mode present numbered creators (#1) and take verdicts in the conversation.
Mandatory Dependencies
- Read and follow
$kelly-app-skill-creator for product behavior, visual
quality, responsive layout, and the complete canonical content/kelly-creators-app/ artifact.
- Read and follow
$busabase for connection, target Space, node discovery,
ChangeRequests, review, and merge behavior.
- Read and follow
$busabase-app-creator for resource modeling, AirApp
runtime limits, security, validation, and deployment.
If a dependency is unavailable, preserve this skill's local artifact and
product contracts, stop before the unavailable Busabase operation, and report
the exact missing dependency. Do not invent a second data backend.
Philosophy
This skill is an App-in-Skill: a Codex/agent skill paired with a small companion UI. The skill does the real work (external reads, reasoning, drafting, executing approved sends); the app is a quiet operator surface over Busabase that never performs an external side effect. See the App-in-Skill specification paper: https://mr-kelly.github.io/research/app-in-skill-specification-for-pairing-agent-skills-with-a-local-companion-ui.pdf.
The domain follows the four-phase influencer-marketing discipline — Discover → Plan → Activate → Measure — used both as the pipeline funnel and as a phase facet on every item, derived from stage. Human clicks are reserved for judgment, edits, exceptions, and irreversible or money/contract actions.
Capabilities (Discover / Plan / Activate / Measure)
The agent covers sixteen sub-skills, grouped by phase. Each generated item is tagged with its phase so the desk always shows where the program stands.
- Discover —
audience-mapper (who the brand's buyers are), trend-spotter (rising formats/sounds/topics), influencer-discovery (sweep candidate creators), fit-scorer (the objective C³ ACE match score).
- Plan —
competitor-tracker (which creators competitors use), campaign-planner (goals, mix, timeline), brief-generator (creative brief per creator), budget-optimizer (allocate spend across the roster).
- Activate —
outreach-manager (draft and track outreach DMs/emails), content-reviewer (the pre-publication SHIP/FIX/BLOCK quality gate), contract-helper (terms, usage rights, exclusivity), content-amplifier (whitelisting/boosting approved posts).
- Measure —
landing-optimizer (post-click experience), performance-analyzer (reach/engagement/conversion), roi-calculator (spend → estimated value, CPM, ROI), report-generator (campaign wrap-ups).
Fit score — C³ ACE
fit_score (0-100) is the objective matching score: Content × Community × Credibility crossed with Audience × Cost × Engagement. fit_breakdown carries the six sub-scores shown in creator detail. Prefer fit over raw follower count when ranking candidates.
Content-reviewer quality gate
Before a live creator's post publishes, the agent runs a content-reviewer gate that outputs SHIP / FIX / BLOCK over ftc_disclosure (is #ad disclosed above the fold?) and claim_authenticity (are product claims supportable, no cure/medical overreach?), plus brand_safety. A fix or block verdict is surfaced in the outreach queue for a human decision. This gate is item_type: "quality_gate" with gate_verdict and gate_checks.

Boundary
- The skill may read sources Kelly provides, sweep and score creators, draft outreach/briefs/contracts, run content gates, and write to Busabase.
- The AirApp reads and writes Busabase only. It must never send DMs or emails, call platform APIs, post content, or perform any external side effect.
- Outbound outreach, briefs, and contracts are always approval-required. Sending is delegated to other skills (for example
instagram-outreach, tiktok-outreach, kelly-email) and happens only after the user approves the specific item. scripts/execute_decisions.mjs only marks an approved engagement done after re-reading Busabase; it performs no sending itself.
- Treat money and contract terms (rates, usage rights, exclusivity) as sensitive and approval-required. Never expose secret values in the UI.
First Run And Onboarding
On invocation, check the kelly-creators-profile settings row for
readiness. If it is absent, guide setup before doing real creator work.
Ask for non-secret setup details only: operator profile (name, role, company, timezone), brand(s) and positioning, target niches, program budget and base currency, outreach platforms and which skill handles each, style/tone for drafts, and risk keywords (money/contract). Never ask the user to paste secret values into chat. Busabase authentication is ambient inside the deployed AirApp.
Busabase Resources
Two Bases under one application Folder (kelly-creators), declared in
content/kelly-creators-app/app/js/config.js and the generated template sidecars under content/:
creators: every creator candidate/engagement plus every content-reviewer quality gate under review — handle, platform, niche, followers, engagement_rate, the C³ ACE fit_score/fit_breakdown, stage, workflow status, proposed_action, est_rate, risk, channel, reason, audience_note, editable suggested_reply, est_value, spend, the quality-gate fields (gate_verdict, gate_checks), and the human verdict fields decision_note / decided_at.
settings: one row per kind — kelly-creators-profile (operator profile, brand(s), program budget/currency/niches, style tone, platforms) and kelly-creators-lock.
Resources provision lazily through an idempotent Busabase ChangeRequest the
first time the app runs in a Space; see references/creators-schema.md for
exact field shapes. phase, cpm, and every rollup metric on the overview
are computed client-side from the creators Base on every read — they are
never stored.
Local App
Default behavior is AirApp-first — give the user the clickable AirApp URL.
Start pnpm --dir content/kelly-creators-app dev only when local preview/debugging is explicitly
requested.
Required app views (hash routes):
#/overview: command desk. Human-attention counts, the discovery → outreach → negotiating → live → measured funnel (tagged by phase), budget allocation, total reach, and top candidates by fit.
#/creators and #/creators/<creator_id>: candidate cards with fit score, platform, niche, followers, engagement rate, and rate — sortable by fit / followers / engagement / cost. Detail shows the C³ ACE breakdown, the outreach draft (or the quality-gate checks), and the full engagement record.
#/outreach: review queue over agent-drafted outreach and content gates in workflow states needs_review, changes_requested, approved, done, blocked. Each item shows a stable row ref (#1), fit score, phase/risk badges, an editable suggested_reply draft, a Review note textarea, and decision buttons Approve / Request changes / Block that write straight onto the Busabase record.
#/roi: per-creator spend, estimated value, CPM, and ROI.
#/settings: sanitized config summary. Operator profile, brand(s), program budget and target niches, configured platforms, data provider, and onboarding state. Never expose secret values.
Demo mode:
?demo=1 opens a deterministic mock program for documentation and screenshots.
?demo=overview, ?demo=creators, ?demo=outreach, ?demo=roi, and ?demo=detail select named mock scenes; detail deep-links to a creator detail.
lang=en or lang=zh forces UI chrome language for screenshots.
- Demo mode never reads or writes Busabase. All handles are invented.
UI language: support English and Chinese chrome with Auto default. Keep creator names, handles, notes, and drafts in their original language.
Review Workflow
Read references/creators-schema.md before editing the app or its domain logic.
A human verdict (approve / request_changes / block / revise) writes
the new status plus decision_note / decided_at directly onto the
creator record through busabase-sdk; approve with an edited draft also
updates suggested_reply. From a standalone local preview the write merges
immediately (trusted operator); from the deployed AirApp it creates a
pending ChangeRequest for the trusted process to merge.
Normal Workflow
- Detect mode. Default to App UI.
- Discover/Plan: when Kelly feeds a niche, brand brief, competitor, or candidate list: upsert creator engagements to Busabase by stable
creator_id, compute the C³ ACE fit_score and fit_breakdown, set stage/phase, draft suggested_reply outreach or briefs with status: "needs_review", add money/contract risk badges and est_rate. The overview's rollups recompute automatically on every read.
- Give the user the AirApp URL (or local preview URL) to review the funnel, the candidate cards, and the outreach queue.
- For an engagement moved to
changes_requested, re-draft suggested_reply per the review comment and write it back to needs_review.
- Activate: on "execute" / "send approved outreach": run
node scripts/execute_decisions.mjs --apply to re-read approved engagements from Busabase and mark them done. Then perform the actual sends only through the corresponding skill with the approved, possibly user-edited draft, one item at a time. Run the content-reviewer gate on live drafts and surface FIX/BLOCK verdicts for approval.
- Measure: as campaigns go live and complete, update
spend, est_value, and move engagements to measured; summarize ROI in the #/roi view.
- Never send anything for items without an explicit
approve decision, and never re-send items already marked done.
Safety Defaults
- Treat every outbound message, brief, contract, rate commitment, usage-rights term, and exclusivity clause as approval-required.
- Never publish or approve a live post that fails the
content-reviewer gate (missing FTC disclosure or unsupportable claims) without a human decision.
- Store only the minimum creator content needed for review; keep raw scraped data and platform exports out of Busabase.
- Redact tokens and credential-like strings from logs, reports, and UI state; expose only boolean readiness for configured platforms.
- Keep stable ids (
creator_id) and ref numbers so repeated updates and executions are idempotent.
