ShillOS

ShillOS is Laika’s on-chain distribution layer.

It turns creator outreach into programmable campaigns — with briefs, escrowed budgets, proof-of-publication, and automatic payouts — so projects fund verifiable distribution instead of informal DMs.


What ShillOS solves

  • Off-chain promises → on-chain agreements (brief → escrow → publish → payout).

  • Opaque spend → auditable budgets, addresses, and results.

  • One-off influencers → repeatable creator cohorts with reputation and cost metrics.

  • Unpaid work / ghosting → proof-based payouts and optional clawbacks.


How it works (end-to-end)

  1. Create a brief

    • Project/DAO defines the deliverable (e.g., thread, meme, video, Space co-host, TG post), target timing, required tags/links, and acceptance criteria.

  2. Escrow the budget

    • Funds are locked in a campaign contract ($LAIKA, $DOGE, USDC, or project token).

  3. Creator opt-in

    • Verified creators (wallet + socials) review the brief and accept the terms (rate card or tiered bounty).

  4. Publish & verify

    • Creator posts the content; ShillOS records the post ID, URL and a content hash.

    • An on-chain oracle verifies proof-of-publication and basic criteria (tags, link, handle, time window).

    • Optional performance tiers (e.g., ≥X views/likes) unlock bonuses.

  5. Payout & reputation

    • Smart contract releases the payout automatically when conditions are met.

    • Creator’s reputation score updates (completion rate, dispute rate, repeat funding).

Everything is visible in dashboards: who was paid, for what, when, and under which brief.


Campaign types (presets)

  • X Thread / Tweet – long/short form; mandatory tag & link; media required (Y/N).

  • Meme / Creative – image/GIF/video; source file upload; brand kit adherence.

  • Space / AMA – date/time window; co-host handle; recording link post-event.

  • Telegram Push – channel post + forward count; pinned duration.

  • Quest Pack – multi-action flow (follow, RT, join Discord, apply OG List) with per-action payouts.

Each preset maps to a pre-audited acceptance checklist and payout schema.


Payout models

  • Fixed bounty — pay on proof-of-publication.

  • Tiered performance — base + bonuses unlocked by view/engagement thresholds.

  • Streamed — payout streams over N days; clawback if content is deleted early.

  • Vested — part paid now, part vested (aligns long-term advocacy).

Defaults are set per brief; projects can combine models (e.g., fixed + bonus).


Verification & fraud controls

  • Read-only social linking (X/TG): collects handle, avatar, follower count; no posting permission required.

  • Deterministic checks: handle match, mandatory tags/mentions, canonical link, time window, content hash.

  • Gates (tunable): minimum account age, follower threshold, prior completion rate.

  • Duplicate & plagiarism filters: hash similarity and URL de-duplication.

  • Appeals: short window to contest failed checks (manual reviewer or dispute module).


Creator onboarding

  • Connect wallet → link socials (read-only).

  • Set rate card (flat, tiered, token-denominated ok) and preferred categories.

  • Build reputation via completed campaigns; higher scores surface first for briefs.


Default parameters (governance-tunable)

  • Content permanence: must remain online ≥ 7 days (clawback if removed).

  • Grace periods: publish within 48–72h of acceptance unless otherwise stated.

  • Appeal window: 48h post-rejection.

  • Creator caps: max concurrent campaigns per creator to prevent spam.

  • Budget assets: $LAIKA, $DOGE, USDC, or project token; treasury routes set by DAO policy.

  • Disclosure: compliance toggle for ad/sponsored tags where required.

Active defaults are shown in-app; changes require governance.


Roles & responsibilities

  • Projects/DAOs — fund briefs, define targets, review dashboards, iterate budget mix (creators vs bribes vs buybacks).

  • Creators/KOLs — deliver on brief, maintain content, grow reputation for better access.

  • Oracles/Reviewers — verify proofs; adjudicate disputes within SLA.

  • veLAIKA voters — may subsidize ecosystem-wide campaigns (meta-distribution) via governance.


Safety & compliance (plain language)

  • Laika/ShillOS never obtain posting rights to social accounts; permissions are read-only.

  • Payouts depend on meeting objective criteria in the brief; not financial advice or performance guarantees.

  • Creators are responsible for platform ToS compliance and legal disclosures in their jurisdiction.

  • Campaign funds in escrow are programmatically released; unused budgets can be returned by the brief owner.


TL;DR

ShillOS makes distribution trustless, measurable, and repeatable. Projects fund proof-backed reach; creators become on-chain partners with reputation; DAOs see exactly what they paid for — and can double-down where it works.
