content-measure

A measurement workflow for comparing the performance of published content assets against a baseline or an earlier batch.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for 24-to-48-hour or seven-day snapshots, asset scoring, top and bottom performer lists, and action-oriented feedback across social posts, blogs, and email.
Why use it?
It turns analytics data into evidence about what worked, what underperformed, and what to change next.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

content-measure scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Content Measure

Measurement produces evidence and next actions — not just numbers.

When to Use

  • 24-48 hours after publishing (day-1 snapshot)
  • 7 days after publishing (week-1 snapshot)
  • When comparing performance across a batch of assets
  • To close the feedback loop before the next production cycle

Inputs Required

  • Published asset URLs/permalinks
  • Analytics access (GA4, platform native insights, or manual metrics)
  • Measurement window (24h / 72h / 7d)

Required Outputs

  • Metrics snapshots per live asset — date range + source table (not estimated)
  • Asset score — relative performance vs baseline or prior batch
  • Winner/loser list — top 3 performers, bottom 2 underperformers
  • Feedback events — what to change next, mapped to a specific action

Metrics to Capture (by Platform)

Platform Key metrics
Instagram Reel Views, reach, saves, shares, profile visits, retention % at 3s/midpoint
Instagram Carousel Impressions, reach, saves, link clicks
YouTube Short Views, watch time %, subscribers gained
Blog Sessions, avg time on page, scroll depth, CTA clicks
Email Open rate, click rate, unsubscribes
Landing page Sessions, form submissions, conversion rate

Scoring

Score each asset against two baselines:

  1. Your average — how does this compare to your own past 30 days?
  2. Batch average — how does this compare to other assets in the same batch?

Score: above / on-par / below (qualitative) + the specific metric gap

Feedback Events Format

Asset: [URL or ID]
Result: [metric] [value] ([above/below] [baseline by X%])
Pattern: [what this tells us — specific, not generic]
Action: [what to do differently next time — specific, actionable]
Routed to: [copy approach / hook formula / posting time / format choice]

Example:

Asset: reel/2026-04-10-claude-roi
Result: 3s retention 45% (below batch avg of 62%)
Pattern: Talking-head opener drops retention faster than visual/text opener
Action: Next 3 reels — open with text overlay or screen capture, not face
Routed to: storyboard → hook section → visual-first rule

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

content-measure is a skill published in the GitHub repository maxtechera/ship (2 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 707 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
