# How we use Podchaser to amplify authority and repurpose podcast content

A podcast credit should show work a person really did. This guide helps you check the profile and each episode tied to it. Start with the right person and the proof for their role.

**The path:** Correct creator → Evidence per credit → Submitted or confirmed state → Master inventory.

**Use this when:** A Podchaser profile or suggested-credit list needs verified identity and episode-role review.

## Inputs
- Canonical identity details and the existing profile URL if any.
- Episode/show evidence, known roles and companion inventory results.
- Actual owner authorization/account access for profile or credit changes; read-only triage can proceed without a claim.
- A triage sheet with old/new counts, decision, evidence, submission state and reviewer.

## First-run prompt

> Review this exact Podchaser creator and credit list against primary episode evidence. Keep one decision per credit and distinguish mentions, roles and same-name matches. Carry out profile/credit changes already authorized, then read back their true moderation state. Merge only verified appearances and do not infer media rights or contact authority.

## Steps
1. Find the existing creator before creating another. Check name, bio, links and actual work to avoid a same-name collision.
2. If claiming is in scope, use the current Claim Profile process and record its verification request state. Current official help describes team verification; do not assume every user must connect X or substitute someone else’s identity.
3. Create a missing profile only with the appropriate job scope and supplied identity evidence. Use the current My Creators/Add Creator flow and keep moderation pending until actually approved.
4. Record confirmed and suggested counts as a dated baseline. For each suggestion, capture episode, show, date, proposed role and primary evidence. A suggested credit is not an appearance record yet.
5. Judge each credit independently. Confirm host, guest, producer or another actual role only where evidence supports it. Reject same-name and mention-only matches in the work list; keep ambiguous items unresolved. Apply platform changes only through the in-scope route.
6. Compare verified missing appearances with the platform. Submit supported missing credits using the correct episode and role, and save the submission reference. A moderation submission must not be counted as already public.
7. Reopen relevant profiles/episode pages after changes. Reconcile actual accepted/removed/pending credits with the before count; distinguish a show-level recurring role from individually verified guest episodes.
8. Sync confirmed appearances and their sources to the master inventory. Preserve pending submissions and unresolved identity separately. Credit visibility does not grant rights to reuse the media.
9. Return the triage log, actual profile state and next owner. A future credit review needs a real agreed trigger; do not promise the profile will grow automatically or send outreach from this task.

## Definition of done (QA checklist)

- [ ] The correct creator is identified with no duplicate profile.
- [ ] Each reviewed credit has individual role/identity evidence and a decision.
- [ ] Submitted, pending moderation and confirmed public states remain distinct.
- [ ] Before/after totals reconcile and the master inventory keeps rights/uncertainty visible.

## Example(s)

**Fictional teaching example — no credits were changed.** A sample profile has ten confirmed credits and three suggestions. One suggestion is a real guest appearance, one only mentions the name, and one belongs to a different person.

The reviewer submits the supported credit and rejects the other two in the work list. While moderation is pending, the public confirmed count remains ten. Only a later verified acceptance can make it eleven. The triage sheet preserves all three decisions instead of bulk-confirming them.

## Handoff and Content Factory context

The inventory owner receives the reconciled log for [the master appearance inventory](https://local-service-spotlight.github.io/task-library/?task=how-to-inventory-every-podcast-youve-been-on-and-why-its-one-of-the-highest-roi-things-you-can-do#task-how-to-inventory-every-podcast-youve-been-on-and-why-its-one-of-the-highest-roi-things-you-can-do). The content owner can later obtain permitted media for transcription; profile approval is not permission to edit a podcast.

Produce supplies the real source. **Process**, this stage of the [Content Factory](https://blitzmetrics.com/content-factory/), turns it into useful finished assets. Post saves or publishes them on the agreed channels. Promote tests and distributes suitable work within its own scope. The handoff above names this task’s actual next step; catalog neighbors alone are not prerequisites.

## When this runs

Initial profile/credit review, then an agreed new-credit check. A pending moderation request is monitored by the actual owner rather than resubmitted repeatedly.

## First-run setup and continuity

Open the supplied task file and its linked source. Verify the project’s real inputs, account, access and output folder before work. This Markdown file is a guide; it does not install an app, connect an account, supply a subscription or create a schedule. Carry out work already authorized; do not ask for the same approval again. Keep any unsupplied destination or new action outside that scope clearly pending.

Save source IDs, versions, decisions, checked outputs and next owner in the project tracker. Before a retry, check the saved state and other workers’ changes. A model name does not guarantee memory or a running timer. Repeated work needs an actual configured trigger and durable state; one-off work can be started by the prompt above.

Keep agent media muted with volume zero before playback. If mute cannot be verified, use captions, metadata or still frames. State the limit: silent visual checks do not prove spoken-word accuracy or audio quality. Do not start sound through the user’s speakers unless explicitly asked.

## Write up the real run

For every actual attempt, [write its meta article](https://blitzmetrics.com/meta-article-prompt/) with this recipe and revision, trigger, steps performed, output evidence, measured result, gaps and next owner. Failed, blocked and partial attempts also get a written record. A draft can satisfy writing; publishing it follows the existing job scope.

Keep one stable execution ID across retries and edits. A separately scoped child task may have its own ID linked to its parent. Writing the parent’s meta record is part of that run, not an endless new chain. The [recipe and meta-article guide](https://localservicespotlight.com/meta-articles/) explains this distinction. Teaching examples are not real executions and must not enter the run count.


<!-- factory-layer:start -->

## Factory chain (do not treat this as isolated)

- **Phase:** Process
- **Importance:** 4/5 `●●●●○` — frequency 4, revenue 3, gating 2 (runs every factory cycle or weekly)
- **Suggested previous station:** —
- **Suggested next station:** —
These stations are generated neighbors, not verified prerequisites or handoffs. Follow the task’s actual Inputs and Handoff sections.
- **Handoff:** Process-stage artifact examples include `transcript.md`, `gct.md`, `article.html` (or a staged draft), `clips/`, or `04-Promote-Creatives/`. These are examples, not requirements for every task. Follow this task's actual Inputs and Handoff sections for the required output, evidence, and next owner. Pass the files or records, not one vendor's memory.

## Model routing (same factory, any engine)

- **This task's lane:** `any` — Any capable chat model (Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini). SOP following, drafts, checklists.
- **Single-engine path:** Use the capable AI app you already have. Check its required tools and access before starting. Pass the actual result and proof to the next task.
- **Optional multi-engine:** A tested local model may draft; a stronger model may review facts and voice. Use supported tools for approved actions. Pick models from observed quality and cost; a model name does not prove it can run this task.
- **Never** store the working state in one vendor's memory. Files in the Content Library are the bridge.

## Review and evidence still needed

The source contributor status is preserved. It is not certification of this draft or proof of account access, completed work or a live outcome. The worked example teaches the method and is explicitly fictional.
- Actual profile access, moderator decisions and source presence must be verified; no live credits were changed in this draft.
