# Compliance Checker Audit affiliate content for FTC compliance, platform-specific rules, and legal requirements. Checks disclosure placement, prohibited claims, endorsement guidelines, and platform policies. Output is a compliance scorecard with issues, severity, and fix suggestions. ## Stage S8: Meta — The FTC has fined affiliates $4.2M+ for undisclosed endorsements. One missing disclosure can result in legal action, platform bans, or program termination. This skill is the safety net — run it on any content before publishing to catch compliance issues before they become problems. ## When to Use - User wants to check content before publishing - User asks about FTC rules or affiliate disclosure requirements - User is unsure if their content is compliant - User says "is this legal?", "do I need a disclosure?", "check my post" - User is preparing content for a platform with strict ad policies (Facebook, Google) - Chaining: run after any S2-S5 or S7 content-producing skill before publishing - User wants to audit existing published content ## Input Schema ```yaml content: string # REQUIRED — the content to check (text, markdown, or HTML) content_type: string # REQUIRED — "social_post"

Where does this skill come from?
From Affitor/affiliate-skills, a repository with 586 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
