Session Handoff — Affiliate cross-promo system + voice/accuracy guardrails

Where it started

Sondra wanted a repeatable way to promote her affiliate Skool communities to her audience (she earns 30-50% referral credit) and to SEE what's scheduled. It grew into: an affiliate-link registry, a Scheduled Posts calendar on ceodash, a 20-community research project, and — after two failures (generic "real talk" voice; a fabricated Skooly feature) — two hard-wired rules for writing any post.

Decisions locked + what shipped

• Affiliate link registry (20 communities, ref da740f21) — c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\data\affiliate_links.json
• Scheduled Posts calendar LIVE on ceodash (home nav) — builder c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\ceo-dashboard\build\build_scheduled_posts.py, source of truth c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\posts\schedule.json, wired into ceo-dashboard\deploy.bat
• Pinterest Pin Angle Generator cross-posted to 5 communities, 5/5 live (OPM got the 793f1df ref) — plan c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\posts\queue\pinterest-pin-angle-5of7-crosspost.json
• Tim Adam / Pinterest Skool affiliate post rescheduled 9 AM -> 1 PM ET today via one-time task "AIOS Pinterest Post - Tim Adam"; plan posts\queue\pinterest-tim-adam.json, wrapper scripts\run_pinterest_post.cmd
• Daily Affiliate Promo project — all 20 About pages fetched, her-voice blurbs + 40 images, review report + engine JSON — c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\PROJECTS\Daily Affiliate Promo\ (report.html, briefs\community_briefs.json)
• TWO STANDING RULES wired into c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\CLAUDE.md: (1) before writing ANY post, read her real posts and model on them; (2) features only from a community OWNER's own words or an owner-made classroom module — never member posts/headline inference
• Voice corpus (438 real posts pulled, 22 saved) — c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\context\voice\sondra-real-skool-posts.md
• Banned the referral/"I'm a member" disclosure line on affiliate posts

Verification — how to confirm things still work

• After 1 PM ET: python -X utf8 -c "import json;print([e for e in json.load(open('data/skool_post_log.json')) if 'traffic source' in e.get('title','').lower()])" — expect a Tim Adam entry; also logs\pinterest-post.log
• python "PROJECTS/Daily Affiliate Promo/build_briefs_report.py" then open PROJECTS\Daily Affiliate Promo\report.html in Edge — 20 community briefs render
• python ceo-dashboard/build/build_scheduled_posts.py — rebuilds the calendar from posts\schedule.json

Deferred + open questions

• Open: redo the Skooly recommendation using ONLY owner-verified facts (his About page / an owner-made classroom module) + her real voice — awaiting her go, or she hands over the one insider thing she loves about Skooly
• Deferred: "go inside" the other 19 for verifiable owner-sourced goodies before writing each; some may have little
• Open: 2 unconfirmed affiliate slugs (The Skool Directory -> skool-community-9362; Women's Business Community -> women-supporting-women-vip / Facebook)
• Deferred: Cross-Community Promo skill still parked (not built) — build draws from community_briefs.json
• Deferred: commit today's work (uncommitted)
• Reminder: her PC must be on + logged in at 1 PM ET for the Pinterest post to fire

Pick up here

On her go, redo the Skooly recommendation the right way (owner-verified facts + context/voice/sondra-real-skool-posts.md), then roll that same standard across all 20 briefs and lock the daily rotation.
