/digital-marketing-pro:anomaly-scan

Script location. If your host does not set ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}, the scripts are in this plugin's scripts/ folder, next to skills/. Run them with Python 3.10 or newer: python, or python3 where python is not found (macOS, many Linux systems).

Purpose

Scan all connected marketing platforms for anomalies — statistically significant deviations from established baselines that could indicate problems (traffic drops, CPA spikes, deliverability collapse, budget overruns) or opportunities (viral content, conversion rate improvements, unexpected channel growth). Designed to catch issues early, before they compound into costly problems, and to surface wins worth amplifying.

Input Required

The user must provide (or will be prompted for):

• Sensitivity level: Strict (flags deviations >1.5 standard deviations from baseline), normal (>2 std dev), or relaxed (>3 std dev). Defaults to normal
• Time period: The window to scan for anomalies — today, last 3 days, last 7 days, last 30 days, or custom range. Defaults to last 7 days
• Platforms (optional): Specific platforms to focus the scan on (e.g., "Google Ads and Meta only"). If omitted, all connected platforms are scanned
• Metrics focus (optional): Specific metrics to prioritize (e.g., "CPA and conversion rate only"). If omitted, all available metrics are evaluated
• Baseline period (optional): Custom baseline for comparison instead of the default. Defaults to the rolling 30-day average maintained by performance-monitor.py
• Exclude known events (optional): List of known events to filter out (e.g., "Black Friday sale", "site migration on Jan 15") so expected deviations are not flagged as anomalies

Process

1. Load brand context: Read ~/.claude-marketing/brands/_active-brand.json for the active slug, then load ~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/profile.json. Apply brand voice, compliance rules for target markets (skills/context-engine/compliance-rules.md), and industry context. Also check for guidelines at ~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/guidelines/_manifest.json — if present, load restrictions. Check for agency SOPs at ~/.claude-marketing/sops/. If no brand exists, ask: "Set up a brand first (/digital-marketing-pro:brand-setup)?" — or proceed with defaults.
2. Pull current metrics from all connected MCPs: Query each connected analytics platform (google-analytics, google-ads, meta-marketing, linkedin-marketing, tiktok-ads, mailchimp, stripe, mixpanel, amplitude, shopify, etc.) for all available metrics across the specified scan period. Include traffic, spend, conversions, CPA, ROAS, engagement rates, deliverability, and revenue metrics.
3. Load historical baselines: Execute python "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/performance-monitor.py" --brand {slug} --action get-baseline to retrieve rolling averages, standard deviations, and expected ranges for each metric. If no baseline exists yet, use the comparison period data to establish a temporary baseline and note this in the output.
4. Run anomaly detection: Execute python "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/performance-monitor.py" --brand {slug} --action detect-anomalies --data '{...current-period metrics...}' to flag metrics that fall outside the expected ranges computed from the stored baseline (mean ± standard deviations). Apply day-of-week and seasonality adjustments where historical data supports it.
5. Cross-reference with recent executions: Check execution history via python "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/execution-tracker.py" --brand {slug} --action get-history --limit 14
