Paste in a DM or email thread where partnership terms were discussed and receive a clean bulleted summary of all agreed terms formatted to send back to the creator for confirmation. This skill should be used when summarizing a creator conversation into agreed terms, extracting deal points from a DM thread, turning an email negotiation into a confirmation message, documenting what was agreed with an influencer, cleaning up a messy negotiation thread into clear terms, converting informal creator discussions into a written agreement summary, pulling terms from a back-and-forth DM exchange, creating a confirmation recap from a creator call or chat, formalizing a verbal deal with a creator, or drafting a terms confirmation message to send after a negotiation. For writing the initial outreach messages, see creator-outreach-sequence-generator. For negotiation strategy and counter-offer language, see creator-negotiation-assistant.

Check for .claude/brand-context.md. If it exists, read it and use the brand name, campaign details, creator program structure, compensation models, and any standard terms. Skip questions below that the context file already answers.
If the context file does not exist, note: "I do not have your brand context yet. I will ask a few extra questions to extract terms accurately. For future sessions, run /brand-context first to skip this."
Before extracting terms, assess these inputs from the user's provided thread or brand context:
Fallback questions (ask only what the thread and context file do not already cover):
If It Wasn't Written Down, It Wasn't Agreed — The entire point of this skill is turning implicit understandings into explicit written terms. When the thread says "sounds good" without specifying what "good" means, that is not an agreed term — it is an assumption waiting to become a dispute. Flag every ambiguous acceptance and identify exactly what still needs clarification. Test: for each extracted term, can you point to the exact message where both parties confirmed it?
Extract What Was Said, Not What You Think They Meant — Conversations are messy. People say "I usually charge around $500" and the brand replies "that works." Did they agree to exactly $500? Or "around $500"? Summarize the actual language used, then flag where precision is missing. Never upgrade a vague discussion into a firm commitment. The confirmation message is where both parties lock in specifics.
Gaps Are the Deliverable — A complete term summary that lists 6 agreed terms and 0 gaps is almost certainly incomplete. Real DM negotiations skip over usage rights, exclusivity, payment timing, content approval process, FTC disclosure requirements, and cancellation terms constantly. The gap list is as valuable as the agreed-terms list. Every missing term is a potential dispute prevented.
Confirmation Messages Are Conversations, Not Contracts — The output is a friendly, professional recap sent from one human to another — not a legal document. Use natural language. Frame terms as "here is what we discussed" not "the parties hereby agree." The creator should read this and think "yes, that is what we talked about" — not "I need to run this by a lawyer before responding." Legal contracts come later.
Speed Prevents Memory Drift — The longer the gap between a verbal agreement and a written summary, the more both parties' memories diverge. A confirmation sent within 24 hours locks in shared understanding. A confirmation sent a week later invites "I don't remember agreeing to that." Remind the user to send the confirmation quickly.
Important limitation: This skill produces a confirmation recap, not a legally binding contract. For partnerships involving significant spend, exclusivity, or usage rights for paid media, recommend the user have their legal team draft a formal agreement based on the confirmed terms.
Read the full conversation and identify every message where a term, expectation, or condition was stated, countered, or confirmed. Build a raw extraction table:
| Message # | Speaker | What Was Said | Term Category | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Brand | "We'd love to send you our new serum" | Compensation (gifting) | Proposed |
| 3 | Creator | "I'd be happy to post about it" | Deliverables (post) | Tentatively accepted |
| 5 | Creator | "My rate for a Reel is $400" | Compensation (paid) | Counter-proposed |
| 6 | Brand | "We can do $350 + product" | Compensation (hybrid) | Counter-proposed |
| 7 | Creator | "Let's do $375 + product" | Compensation (hybrid) | Counter-proposed |
| 8 | Brand | "Deal" | Compensation (hybrid) | Confirmed |
Track every back-and-forth on each term. The final confirmed position is what goes into the summary. Unresolved counters go into the gaps list.
Organize confirmed terms into these categories. This is the coverage checklist — every creator partnership should address all of these before content goes live:
Always extract (flag as gap if missing):
| Category | What to Capture | Common DM Language |
|---|---|---|
| Deliverables | Number and type of content pieces, platform, format | "a Reel," "3 Stories," "a TikTok," "a post" |
| Compensation | Payment amount, product value, affiliate rate, hybrid structure | "I charge $X," "we can offer," "plus product," "commission" |
| Timeline | Posting dates, draft deadlines, campaign window | "by next Friday," "during launch week," "within 30 days" |
| Usage rights | Where and how long the brand can use the content beyond organic | "for ads," "on our website," "repost on our channels" |
| FTC disclosure | Agreement to disclose the partnership per FTC guidelines | "make sure to include #ad," "disclose the partnership" |
Extract if discussed (flag as gap only for paid/ambassador deals):
| Category | What to Capture | Common DM Language |
|---|---|---|
| Exclusivity | Competitor restrictions and duration | "don't post competitors," "exclusive for 30 days" |
| Content approval | Whether brand reviews before posting, revision rounds | "send for approval first," "we'll review the draft" |
| Payment timing | When payment is due, invoicing process | "net 30," "on posting," "after the content goes live" |
| Cancellation terms | What happens if either party needs to back out | "if it doesn't work out," "kill fee" |
| Revisions | Number of revision rounds included | "one round of edits," "minor tweaks" |
Compare extracted terms against the coverage checklist. For each missing category, generate a specific follow-up question — not a generic "discuss usage rights" but a concrete question like: "You agreed on one Reel at $375 + product, but neither of you mentioned usage rights. Can you use this Reel in paid ads? For how long?"
Rate each gap by risk:
| Risk Level | When to Apply | Action |
|---|---|---|
| High | Missing compensation clarity, missing deliverables specifics, no timeline | Must resolve before content creation starts |
| Medium | Missing usage rights, no exclusivity discussion, no approval process | Resolve before content goes live |
| Low | Missing revision count, no cancellation terms (for gifting-only deals) | Nice to have, not blocking |
Write a message the user can send to the creator to confirm agreed terms and surface gaps. Follow this structure:
Opening — Reference the conversation naturally: "Following up on our chat about [campaign/product] — wanted to put everything we discussed in writing so we're on the same page."
Agreed terms section — Bulleted list of every confirmed term, organized by category. Use the creator's own language where possible. Each bullet should be specific enough that both parties can verify it.
Open items section — Frame gaps as questions, not demands: "A few things we didn't cover that I want to make sure we're aligned on:" followed by the specific follow-up questions generated in Step 3.
Closing — Friendly, low-pressure: "Let me know if I captured everything correctly, or if anything needs adjusting."
Tone calibration by channel:
Example confirmation message (Instagram DM, skincare gifting + paid hybrid):
Hey [Creator]! Following up on our chat — wanted to put everything in writing so we're aligned:
Here's what we discussed:
- One Reel (60-90 sec) featuring our Vitamin C Serum in your morning routine
- Three Stories with a swipe-up link to the product page
- $375 + the full skincare set (retails at ~$85)
- Content posted during the week of [date]
A few things I want to make sure we're on the same page about:
- Are you ok with us reposting the Reel on our brand channels? Would we be able to use it in paid ads too?
- Just a heads up to include #ad or #partner in the post — standard FTC stuff
- Should I send a draft review window, or are you good to post directly?
Let me know if I got everything right or if anything needs tweaking!
Adjust the output based on who is using it:
SMB brands (solo marketer, under 50 creators)
Mid-Market brands (influencer team, 50-200 creators)
Enterprise brands and agencies (dedicated team, 200+ creators)
Structure every output with these sections:
Bulleted list organized by category. Each bullet states the term, cites the message or exchange where it was confirmed, and notes any ambiguity.
**Deliverables**
- One Instagram Reel (60-90 seconds) featuring [product] — confirmed in message #3
- Three Instagram Stories with product link — confirmed in message #5
**Compensation**
- $375 flat fee + gifted product (retail value ~$85) — negotiated across messages #5-8, confirmed in message #8
**Timeline**
- Content due by [date] — confirmed in message #10
- Posting window: [date range] — tentative, creator said "that week should work"
Bulleted list of every missing term, with risk level and a specific follow-up question for each.
- **Usage rights** [HIGH] — Not discussed. Can you use the Reel in paid ads or only repost organically? For how long?
- **FTC disclosure** [HIGH] — Not mentioned. Confirm the creator will include #ad or #sponsored per FTC guidelines.
- **Content approval** [MEDIUM] — Not discussed. Will you review the draft before posting?
- **Exclusivity** [MEDIUM] — Not discussed. Any competitor restrictions during or after the campaign?
