CogentCast Authority Engine

CogentCast is the StackFast authority engine that converts expertise and website evidence into structured content, distribution assets, LLM-readable proof, review-gated release receipts, and review-gated site/trust receipts.

Host and data posture

Where this product is meant to live.

Authority content is marketable, but needs voice boundary and approval/no-autopublish receipts.

Who it is for

Experts, founders, and executives who need their expertise turned into durable public authority.

Problem it solves

It turns scattered expertise into consistent, scored, multi-platform content.

Activation model

Catalog now; checkout only after existing Stripe plans are mapped safely.

Composition decisions

What is packaged here, and what is not.

These notes prevent agents from splitting proof lanes into duplicate Store products before the repo has a first-class product record, entitlement, and receipt-backed runtime.

CogentCast site-review receipt

composed capability

Repo truth has a CogentCast pipeline route and a GrowthOS composition test, but no standalone site-review product record, checkout plan, entitlement, or MCP facade. Keep it as a CogentCast capability consumed by GrowthOS owner-facing reports.

Agent guidance
For website review inside revenue capture, use GrowthOS report tools with a CogentCast receipt; for authority-content work, use the CogentCast product.

Proof and source paths

  • CogentCast page exists
  • CogentCast API routes exist
  • Checkout map includes CogentCast products
  • Video 04 public release receipt records article, YouTube, LinkedIn, Credential CTA, and artifact hashes
  • Video 01 article release receipt records public article proof and the frozen-video YouTube-ID blocker
  • GrowthOS owner-facing reports compose CogentCast site-review receipts without creating a duplicate site-review Store product

Repo evidence

Capabilities

governed audiobook production

workflow

Prepare and produce a source-bound audiobook through deterministic spoken-script, Chief Editor, Gemini, paid-canary, human-ear, chunk assembly, and separate publication gates.

Agent use
Use the existing stackfast.cogentcast five-tool facade with content_type=audiobook_production. Preview and create are zero-cost. Read production.status before every requested stage. Never mint Chief Editor, human-ear, full-generation, or publication approval; never pay or publish without the exact server-recorded prerequisite receipt.

authority content pipeline

workflow

Generate, approve, publish, and receipt authority content from expert knowledge without skipping human approval.

Agent use
Use CogentCast as an assisted authority workflow for canonical briefs, articles, videos, distribution drafts, release receipts, and publication state. Do not claim a callable CogentCast MCP unless a runtime_registry tool exists.

managed release package

workflow

Close an approved authority asset by reconciling article, video, metadata, channel links, CTA, publication state, and release receipt.

Agent use
For CogentCast release-package work, use the managed package and receipt artifacts. Video 04 is closed by artifacts/cogentcast/video-04/public-release-receipt-2026-07-12.json. Video 01 has a live article receipt but remains blocked for full package close until the frozen video has a verified YouTube ID.

website trust site review

workflow

Create a review-gated website trust receipt that GrowthOS can include in owner-facing revenue-capture reports.

Agent use
Use the CogentCast site-review composition through GrowthOS report flows or the CogentCast pipeline route evidence. Do not present site review as a separate checkout-ready product.

Connector proof

Catalog is not the same as customer-ready.

This product only becomes market-ready after a real host mounts the entitled tools, a safe call succeeds, metering records the event, and a customer-safe receipt exists. Until then, the page shows the strongest proven status without rounding up.

Catalog

Runtime registry and product manifest are present.

Entitlement

Execution requires OAuth or storefront entitlement scope.

Callable

5 tool(s) declared with no missing V1 tools.

Metering

MCP calls are routed through the metering receipt path.

Customer validated

Pending fresh host-surface call receipt.

Runtime registry status

Primary registry

stackfast.ai/api/mcp

Status

pilot mcp

Install gate

Active CogentCast entitlement plus fresh Claude and ChatGPT host validation; full ChatGPT write-action proof requires Business or Enterprise/Edu.

Callable tools

  • stackfast.cogentcast.package.preview
  • stackfast.cogentcast.package.create
  • stackfast.cogentcast.production.run
  • stackfast.cogentcast.production.status
  • stackfast.cogentcast.approval.resolve

Missing or gated tools

No missing tools declared for the current V1 boundary.

  • Public discovery advertises the five-tool facade, including governed audiobook preparation and status; execution requires an authenticated entitled reader.
  • Audiobook Production v1 binds manuscript, spoken script, SSML, provenance, pronunciation, visual/companion, deterministic build, Chief Editor, Gemini, canary, ear, full-generation, assembly, and publication gates on one append-only CogentCast lineage.
  • CogentCast remains the sole production and receipt service; only authenticated humans may supply Chief Editor, ear, paid-generation, or publication authority.
  • Pilot MCP status does not imply marketplace or checkout readiness.

Install and activate

Connect this product through the StackFast MCP endpoint. Discovery metadata is public; execution uses OAuth and storefront entitlement checks.

MCP URL

https://stackfast.ai/api/mcp

Agent subscription

Agent activation:
- Read this product manifest and pricing API.
- If a plan has checkout_ready=true, open its checkout_url or POST product_slug, plan_slug, and customer_email to the checkout session API.
- After Stripe payment, the signed webhook grants storefront_entitlements for the buyer email/account.
- Connect the LLM client to the MCP URL and approve OAuth so tools/list reflects the licensed reader surface.
- Call only tools exposed for that entitlement; unentitled execution must fail closed.
