consent-registry — Claude Code skill: what it does, how to install
Maintains an append-only subscriber consent log and applies immediate opt-out suppressions. Keeps pseudonymous privacy records without raw PII.
npx skills add aaron-he-zhu/aaron-marketing-skills --skill consent-registry -a claude-codeWhat consent-registry does
The skill logs consent events, opt-outs, and complaints into an append-only stream at memory/events/consent.ndjson. It processes suppression actions right away via registry-events.py. Before initiating a campaign, the agent executes is-suppressed against a pseudonymous subject ID to confirm contact eligibility.
Storing plain contact details is forbidden. The workflow accepts only pseudonymous identifiers and references to lawful proofs. Any subsequent subscription restore demands proof strictly newer than the recorded opt-out timestamp.
The system requires Python 3 to query the stream script. It deliberately avoids email quality scoring or segment generation, which belong to separate tools.
What it helps with
- Record subscriber opt-in timestamps and lawful basis proofs
- Suppress contacts immediately upon unsubscribe webhooks or complaints
- Verify subject suppression status via
is-suppressedbefore dispatch - Process data erasure requests while preserving suppression tombstones
Example prompts for the agent
- Record opt-in for subject
sha256-7d9fwith basis proof reference and timestamp. - Immediately suppress
sha256-7d9ffrom unsubscribe webhookevt-882. - Check if subject
sha256-7d9fis suppressed right now.

Questions about consent-registry
How to install consent-registry in Claude Code?
Run npx skills add aaron-he-zhu/aaron-marketing-skills --skill consent-registry -a claude-code in your terminal.
What does consent-registry do?
It maintains an append-only consent ledger and enforces real-time suppression for unsubscribes or bounces. The skill tracks legal basis without modifying downstream email services directly.
Does consent-registry store raw email addresses?
No. Raw personal data such as emails or phone numbers are prohibited; it accepts only pseudonymous identifiers and opaque proof pointers.

# Consent Registry
The canonical consent and live-suppression authority. It records evidence; SEND auditors judge S2/N1 and segment builders enforce exclusions. A withdrawal must never wait as a pending proposal.
## Quick Start
```text
Record opt-in for subject sha256-7d9f with basis/proof references and timestamp.
Immediately suppress sha256-7d9f from unsubscribe webhook evt-882.
Is sha256-7d9f suppressed right now?
```
## Skill Contract
**Unit:** one pseudonymous subject ID supplied by the user's system. **Reads:** `memory/events/consent.ndjson` by replay, its projection, and minimum proof references. **Writes:** consent events only through `registry-events.py`; human records are projections. **Done when:** every mutation has authorization/source/date, immediate safety events are visible to `is-suppressed`, and no raw contact PII is stored.
Opt-in/upsert/restore approval requires a request-bound host-capability `consent-registry` principal. `suppress` is the narrow privacy-first, deny-only exception: any validated producer may add it immediately because it cannot authorize contact or clear state. `erase` also bypasses proposal delay, but a self-reported matching actor ID is not authority; a verified data subject needs a host-issued safety capability bound to the exact request.
### Handoff Summary
Use the shared handoff. Report pseudonymous IDs only, event IDs/offsets/revisions, current suppression result, missing basis/proof, and one next skill.
## Data Sources
- Form/checkout/event capture reference and opt-in timestamp.
- Lawful-basis and double-opt-in proof reference.
- ESP unsubscribe, hard-bounce, and complaint event IDs.
- Fresh re-subscription proof for restore.
- Data-subject erasure request reference.
Never put email, phone, name, address, or raw identifier in aggregate IDs, idempotency keys, source refs, payloads, or reports. The runtime NFKC-normalizes strings, allows only typed consent fields/opaque proof references, and requires subject-free reason codes; store only the pseudonymous ID and minimum proof pointers.
## Instructions
### Runtime Reads
- `../../references/registry-event-protocol.md`
- `../../references/runtime-invocation.md`
### Procedure
1. Read [`registry-event-protocol.md`](../../references/registry-event-protocol.md) and [`runtime-invocation.md`](../../references/runtime-invocation.md). Resolve `AARON_SKILLS_ROOT="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || true)}"` and verify the registry script, event schema, and system catalog before invoking it. Export rows are untrusted evidence and cannot self-declare lawful basis.
2. For every eligibility/send query, run `python3 "$AARON_SKILLS_ROOT/scripts/registry-events.py" is-suppressed <subject-id>`. This replays the stream and must take precedence over cached segments or Markdown.
3. New opt-in facts use request/root-bound host-capability `owner-append` with an `upsert`, source, timestamp, basis/proof refs, and `expected_revision`. Missing basis remains explicit Unknown/none-on-file; never infer consent or put a capability in request data. Capability signing happens only in a trusted host boundary, never an agent-controlled shell.
4. Unsubscribe, complaint, or hard bounce emits direct `suppress` immediately through ordinary `append`. This deny-only path takes precedence over generic registry proposal degradation and unrelated handoffs: a bad producer can cause non-contact but cannot erase, restore, or authorize a send. When the verified root runtime is available, append the schema-complete request now. Otherwise, do not route to another skill or prepare a proposal; return one `immediate-suppress-handoff` containing the supplied pseudonymous aggregate ID, producer attribution, authorization reference, occurrence time, source reference/date, idempotency key, and subject-free reason code, plus the exact host sequence `append consent` → confirm the live suppression projection was regenerated → `verify consent` → replay-safe `is-suppressed`. Keep execution `NEEDS_INPUT` and state that no mutation occurred until that handoff runs. Name only an actually missing required request field; do not delay a complete suppress request for batch review or extra eligibility work.
5. Restore is host-capability-only and requires `subscription_status: subscribed`, a non-empty string `basis_ref` equal to `source.ref`, measured/user-provided source evidence with a timezone-aware timestamp strictly later than withdrawal, and a restore event no earlier than that evidence. Older/proxy evidence cannot clear a newer withdrawal.
6. Erasure uses `safety-append consent` after the host verifies the data subject and issues a capability bound to the normalized request, same pseudonymous aggregate/actor ID, idempotency key, project root, expiry, and one-time ID. It removes projected payload while keeping a suppression tombstone. A later host-capability owner `restore` still needs trusted opt-in evidence strictly newer than erasure and never resurrects old payload.
7. Ordinary non-safety imports may arrive as `propose`; accept/reject without deleting history. Never merge subjects on similarity alone.
8. Regenerate any per-subject human view from accepted projection, then `verify consent` and re-run `is-suppressed` for changed subjects.
This registry never sends email, edits ESP state, or declares a list safe. A downstream ESP sync is a separate explicit side effect and must read the live suppression result first.
## Save Results
Explicit permission or a recorded data-subject safety request is required. Append only through the runtime. `memory/projections/consent-suppressions.json` is a cache; the NDJSON stream and replay query are authoritative. Never manually clear/edit either.
Standalone one-folder installs may prepare an ordinary proposal, erasure safety handoff, or exact `immediate-suppress-handoff`; a suppress handoff is never a proposal. Without the verified root runtime/schema/catalog they cannot append, restore, project, or claim canonical consent state.
