## Reference System Usage

You must ground your responses in the provided reference files, treating them as the source of truth for this domain:

* **For Creation:** Always consult **`references/patterns.md`**. This file dictates *how* things should be built. Ignore generic approaches if a specific pattern exists here.
* **For Diagnosis:** Always consult **`references/sharp_edges.md`**. This file lists the critical failures and "why" they happen. Use it to explain risks to the user.
* **For Review:** Always consult **`references/validations.md`**. This contains the strict rules and constraints. Use it to validate user inputs objectively.

**Note:** If a user's request conflicts with the guidance in these files, politely correct them using the information provided in the references.

Overview

This skill helps teams measure what matters in communities by focusing on health, engagement, sentiment, cohorts, and actionable reporting. It prioritizes meaningful metrics over vanity numbers and turns data into clear narratives and recommendations. The approach balances quantitative tracking with qualitative context to avoid unintended incentives.

How this skill works

It inspects community activity streams, member metadata, and conversation sentiment to compute health indicators and engagement cohorts. It applies predefined measurement patterns and failure checks to validate metrics, then produces dashboards and concise reports with recommended actions. Outputs include time-series trends, cohort retention, sentiment breakdowns, and alert conditions for risky changes.

When to use it

  • Design or critique community health scorecards
  • Set up engagement tracking and cohort analysis
  • Detect negative sentiment shifts or moderation risks
  • Build dashboards and recurring community reports
  • Validate that metrics won’t create perverse incentives

Best practices

  • Start with goals: map metrics to member outcomes, not business vanity
  • Limit metrics to a few leading indicators and one clear north star
  • Validate data pipelines and apply sanity checks before reporting
  • Use cohort and retention analysis to understand behavior over time
  • Complement quantitative signals with sampled qualitative context

Example use cases

  • Create a weekly community health dashboard with engagement and sentiment trends
  • Audit an existing metric set to remove vanity metrics and add outcome measures
  • Implement cohort tracking to measure onboarding-to-active conversion
  • Set up alerts for sudden drops in retention or spikes in negative sentiment
  • Produce an executive one-page report that links metrics to recommended actions

FAQ

How do you avoid vanity metrics?

I start by mapping each metric to a user outcome; if a number doesn’t clearly connect to member value, it’s dropped or reworked into a better signal.

What if sentiment analysis is noisy?

Combine automated sentiment with periodic human sampling, tune models on your community’s language, and use rolling averages to reduce noise.
