kai-brand-pulse - Multi-Platform Brand Intelligence

Kai root note: knowledge/, harness/, and scripts/ paths in this skill live in the Kai install, not the user's project. Resolve them against the first ancestor directory of this SKILL.md that contains a knowledge/ folder (the Kai plugin root, ~/.claude/kai, or the kai-cmo-harness repo). MARKETING.md, memory/, and any output files live in the current project. If a referenced scripts/ command is not available in this install, say so, skip it, and continue with the file-based guidance — never fabricate its output.

Run a cited brand pulse across public reputation surfaces. This is the Kai-native version of the Brand Monitor Agent pattern: collect evidence first, analyze each platform separately, then synthesize into marketing actions.

When to Use

• You need a current public read on a brand, product, founder, or client.
• You want objection mining for copy, sales, ads, social, or lifecycle messaging.
• You need competitor positioning evidence before /kai-brand, /kai-competitors, or /kai-surround-sound.
• You want weekly delta monitoring for new mentions, complaints, comparisons, and content opportunities.

When Not to Use

• You need a full marketing audit. Use /kai-audit.
• You need technical SEO or agent-readiness checks only. Use /kai-seo-audit or /kai-surround-sound.
• You do not have approval to collect or report on a sensitive individual.
• You plan to publish claims without citations. Stop and collect source-backed evidence first.
