Influencer Identity
Take a person — their socials, their camera roll, the way they talk, who they want to be online — and run them through a glow-up with real talk. The output is a persona.md + portable folder kit + a roadmap to close the gap between where they are now and the persona they want to project.
Sister skill to build-a-brand: same uncompromising standards on voice, aesthetic, and specificity — but the brand is a human, not a product. The output is consumed by other Pika skills (ugc-ads, podcast, founder-product-video, app-sizzle, app-store-screens) so the influencer can produce on-brand content anywhere.
Cost transparency gate
Before any paid MCP call, call mcp__plugin_pika_pika__identity_balance({verbose: true}) once. Surface the current balance, recent burn rate, and remaining runway, then gate the run with this exact message:
Estimated cost: about 600-1,200 credits (~$6-$12) for scrape/transcription if needed, GPT-image-2 mood-board and voice-page atmosphere tiles, MCP HTML image renders, JPG conversion, final html_to_pdf render, and post-render analyze_media PDF QA. This exceeds $5, so Reply
proceedto continue orcancelto stop.
Do not call any paid MCP tool until the user replies proceed. If the user replies cancel, stop without generating. This is the only yes/no gate; after proceed, run the workflow until the next explicit user approval gate for identity/mood-board/PDF content.
Tone of the conversation
This is not a packaging exercise. The user came here to look more marketable. That means: be honest, be strategic, be specific. The skill should feel like a friend who books brand deals telling them what to actually fix — not a horoscope and not a Canva mood board factory.
