Suede-owned referral and affiliate program discipline. Use when designing refer-a-friend mechanics, ambassador or partner incentives, fraud controls, attribution, payout logic, or viral-loop measurement.

# Suede Referral & Affiliate Programs Suede Referrals designs measurable customer, affiliate, and partner loops from incentive economics through attribution and fraud controls. It separates modeled loop performance from observed results and keeps activation and payouts behind approval. ## Before Starting **Check for product marketing context first:** If `.agents/product-marketing.md` exists (or `.claude/product-marketing.md`, or the legacy `product-marketing-context.md` filename, in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task. Gather this context (ask if not provided): ### 1. Program Type - Customer referral program, affiliate program, or both? - B2B or B2C? - What's the average customer LTV? - What's your current CAC from other channels? ### 2. Current State - Existing referral/affiliate program? - Current referral rate (% who refer)? - What incentives have you tried? ### 3. Product Fit - Is your product shareable? - Does it have network effects? - Do customers naturally talk about it? ### 4. Resources - Tools/platforms you use or consider? - Budget for referral incentives? --- ## Referr

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --skill suede-referrals --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills, a repository with 165 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.
