References Bridge — to afriend-content-extraction canon

This skill does NOT duplicate the virality canon. It reads from afriend-content-extraction/. This file maps which sub-files apply to script-writing (pre-recording, the script-pool’s job) vs recording-extraction (post-recording, the other skill’s job).

Read by Mode C (draft-script)

Path	Why used here
~/.claude/skills/afriend-content-extraction/references/shortform-virality.md	Tier-1/2/3 hook patterns (which patterns to compose draft against), arc shapes (cold-open, vulnerability-then-recovery, etc.), Tier-1 self-supplying scroll-stopper rules
~/.claude/skills/afriend-content-extraction/references/attention-preservation.md	Retention windows (0-1.5s 80%, 12-18s second-hook critical, 30-45s resolution start), anti-brain-rot definition (lines 176-192)
~/.claude/skills/afriend-content-extraction/references/essence-extraction-framework.md	PARTIAL — kernel test (“if this clip had to fit one Daniel-sentence, which?”), compression math caps. NOT used: Schärfung trim phase (post-record only), Trim 2a/2b weakness elimination (post-record only)
~/.claude/skills/afriend-content-extraction/priming/tool-naming-checklist.md	Pillar-7 verification — 4-question drill validates that script body names tools + combination + low-stakes verb

NOT read

The virality stages are recording-extraction-only and don’t apply to script writing:

Path	Why NOT used
~/.claude/skills/afriend-content-extraction/virality/SKILL.md	Orchestrator for S1/S2/S3 stages over EXISTING transcripts
~/.claude/skills/afriend-content-extraction/virality/stages/01-source-analysis.md	Inventories beats from transcript silence detection — no transcript exists pre-recording
~/.claude/skills/afriend-content-extraction/virality/stages/02-candidates.md	Generates 5-7 candidate clips from existing inventory — N/A pre-recording
~/.claude/skills/afriend-content-extraction/virality/stages/03-refinement.md	Composes cut-plan.json from selection — N/A, the script IS the plan

If a future feature wants to “post-validate” a script against the virality canon AS IF it were a recorded transcript, the bridge here would expand. Today: not needed.

Cross-skill discipline

• Script-pool only reads from afriend-content-extraction. Never writes there. Exception: the one-time additive edit to priming/SKILL.md (script-driven branch) is a deliberate cross-skill modification documented in M113 S02.8.
• If a virality canon line changes upstream, the change automatically flows here on next read — no copy-paste, no sync drift.
• If script-pool needs new canon (e.g., educational-format-specific virality patterns), propose adding to afriend-content-extraction/references/ rather than duplicating in script-pool. Single source of truth.
