## Engagement
- status: peak_post_only

- best_post_interactions: 13
- measurement_source: x_post_interactions
- measurement_formula: interactions on one post — likes, or likes + reposts + replies depending on the discovery path (the two are not distinguishable in the stored data)
- comparable_pool: peak_interactions
- status_note: We have only the single best observed post, so no mean exists. peak_post_engagement_rate is an UPPER BOUND, systematically higher than an average — never compare it against an average rate.
- unit_note: engagement_rate and peak_post_engagement_rate are ratios (0-1); avg_interactions_per_post and best_post_interactions are absolute counts. Read status before reading any number: a null rate has several different causes and status says which one applies here.

## Evidence
- [x_joshconstine#3612af64] Om made me want to be a tech journalist. His sharp perspectives and unflinching moral compass taught me that you didn’t have to be some artificially neutral newspaper reporter. Hope I always call it like I see it, like he did (https://twitter.com/JoshConstine/status/2069139191754363377)
- [x_joshconstine#79329309] Wild narrative violation. Engineers are the LEAST likely to lose their job right now, based on data on 650M employees. Sales and designers are the most at risk. https://t.co/t8N4Wg82GO
- [x_joshconstine#4d738656] All of tech hiring is down 25% since 2019. But it's sales and designers, not engineers, getting cut. No one wants new grads or middle managers. Everyone's recruiting for "Super IC" roles. Those and more huge findings in our new State Of Talent report:

- commercial.audience_buyer_fit: source_type=ai_inferred, confidence=0.6, freshness_days=111, method=llm_scorer — Relative signal within Koinon indexing, not a market-wide score.
- commercial.promotion_intent: source_type=ai_inferred, confidence=0.6, freshness_days=111, method=llm_scorer
- quality.anomaly_flags: source_type=heuristic, confidence=0.5, freshness_days=121, method=profile_snapshot_and_engagement_ratio_heuristic — Means "worth a manual check", NOT confirmed fraud. Flags can be wrong and are not a verdict about the person.
- quality.authenticity_score: source_type=heuristic, confidence=0.5, freshness_days=111, method=Profile-shape heuristic from a single snapshot (follower count, following ratio, account age, posting volume, verification), reduced for engagement red flags where post engagement was collected. Where only a follower count is available the score saturates at 58. — The input set differs by platform; do not compare this score across platforms.
- quality.koinon_bd_grade: source_type=ai_inferred, confidence=0.5, freshness_days=121, method=llm_partner_fit_classifier + fit_score >= 0.6 AND authenticity >= 60 => A; fit_score >= 0.4 AND authenticity >= 45 => B; else C. authenticity < 30 or a promotional-pattern flag => quarantine. — Koinon partner-outreach fit, not creator quality.
