Task Packs

Marketing Foundation

Compact two-skill starter: clarify positioning and choose a lead magnet. Use Marketing Launch for the broader eight-skill go-to-market workflow.

Marketing Launch

Build an evidence-led marketing plan from ICP and competition through positioning, campaigns, growth and measurement.

Agent Audit Essentials

Diagnose architecture and context, plan agent-team responsibilities, then organize project context and session handoffs. Memory and cost-runtime reviews remain outside this pack.

Conversion and Activation Review

Review the journey from landing page and lead capture through registration, first value and transparent upgrades.

Campaign Content and Brand Review

Plan a campaign, draft its channel content and review the work against actual brand guidance.

Content and Launch Planning

Prioritize an editorial roadmap and plan how to launch and distribute it across suitable channels.

Customer, Market and Community Research

Understand customer needs, compare competitors and plan a community around real member value.

Lead Magnet to Lifecycle Nurture

Choose a relevant lead magnet, then draft a permission-based nurture journey with entry, suppression and exit rules.

API Contract and Observability

Define the API contract, then plan how to observe its latency, failures and retries. Guidance and checklist; no production changes.

Data Analysis Foundation

Profile a dataset, choose and interpret statistical methods, then validate calculations and conclusions before sharing.

B2B Outreach Foundation

Define the target account, prioritize buying signals, plan a human LinkedIn engagement routine and prepare evidence-led responses to buyer concerns.

# Screen Adverse Media

Screen a person or organisation for adverse media coverage, PEP (Politically Exposed Person) status, and sanctions exposure. Every hit is **corroboration-gated**: the screen returns "review", never "guilty", and "nothing found" is never a clean record. Uses the Stipple API (free anonymous tier).

## When to use

- AML/CTF onboarding (Tranche 2 reforms make this mandatory for more Australian businesses)
- Vendor/supplier due diligence before signing
- Investor or LP vetting
- Ongoing counterparty monitoring (re-run periodically, compare warrant IDs)

## Instructions

1. **Get the target.** Name of the person or organisation. For document-based screening, a PDF/image of their ID or company extract can also be submitted.

2. **Run the screen.**

Name-based (via MCP — the REST intake is document-based):
```bash
# Via any MCP client pointed at https://www.stipple.sh/mcp:
# tool: screen_adverse_media
# args: {"name": "John Citizen", "entity_type": "person"}
```

Document-based (REST — screens the person/org named in the uploaded document):
```bash
curl -X POST https://www.stipple.sh/v1/adverse-media \
-F "file=@company-extract.pdf" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $STIPPLE_API_KEY"
```

3. **Interpret the response.**

- `rating` — the overall screening result ("review", "clear", etc.)
- `hits[]` — adverse media articles: date, title, source, URL, summary
- `pep[]` — PEP signals (empty = none found)
- `sanctions[]` — sanctions list signals (empty = none found)

4. **Report with the right framing.** Non-negotiable framing rules:

| Finding | Correct framing |
|---|---|
| Hits found | "Review recommended — see articles below" (never "guilty") |
| Nothing found | "No corroborated adverse media found — this is NOT a clean record; coverage is bounded by the source list" |
| PEP signal | "PEP status identified — enhanced due diligence may apply" |

5. **Contextualize.** Every hit is corroborated across sources before inclusion — but the screen is the start of human review, not the end of it. Date-range and source-coverage limitations are real.

## Output format

```
screening rating: review

adverse media hits:
- [2025-11-02] Court action over unpaid supplier debts
source: The Age https://...
- [2024-06-18] ASIC disqualification
source: ASIC media releases https://...

PEP signals: 0
sanctions list signals: 0

This screen returns "review", never "guilty" — every hit is corroboration-gated.
```

## Limitations and Safety

- Screening processes personal data and potentially damaging allegations through a
hosted third party. Confirm a lawful purpose, obtain any required approval, send
only the minimum identifiers needed, and verify current retention, residency,
access, and deletion terms before transmission.
- Name matches, PEP signals, sanctions hits, and media reports can be incomplete,
stale, misattributed, or false. Corroborate every consequential result with the
original source and authoritative registers; never publish an allegation as fact.
- This is not a legal AML/CTF determination. A qualified human reviewer must resolve
identity ambiguity, document the reasoning, and provide an appropriate correction
or appeal path before rejecting or restricting a person or organization.

## Notes

- Costs 3 credits per screen; free weekly allowance applies
- For AML flows, pair with `check-identity-pack` (identity) and `verify-document` (document genuineness)
- "Nothing found" ≠ "clean record" — always state this in reports
- Free key at https://www.stipple.sh for metering beyond the anonymous allowance

      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable

      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
      as of the date such litigation is filed.

   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
      meet the following conditions:

          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and

      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
          stating that You changed the files; and

      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works

          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
          the Derivative Works; and

      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one

          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided

      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
      the conditions stated in this License.

   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.

   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.

   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.

   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
