Review the sheet →The playbook, in three stages
Work top to bottom. Each stage unlocks the next — the same gates the live consultant portal enforces.
Potential roles
Everyone signs the same contractor agreement — these describe focus, not employment. Seats that may open as the practice grows.
Consultant Playbook
Ten modules across three stages. Mark each one complete as you finish it — progress saves to your account and syncs across devices, and each stage unlocks the next. Locks are enforced server-side: a stage’s modules stay sealed until you finish the stage before it.
Stage 1 — Orientation
{{ stage1Chip }}Commitment-testing. Short. Complete all three to unlock Stage 2.
Stage 2 — The Business
{{ stage2Chip }}Pricing, targeting, and how engagements run. {{ lockNote2 }}
Stage 3 — Full Playbook
{{ stage3Chip }}Operational content for live pursuits and delivery. {{ lockNote3 }}

Resource Library
The 31 items in the Claude Partner Hub content library, catalogued for quick lookup. Originals open in the Partner Hub (partner login required) under Content → Content.

The Partner Network, distilled
What the Archetype Mirror team needs from the Program Guide — Services Edition (v1, effective June 3, 2026) and the Services Track launch guidance. Internal summary; the full documents live in the Partner Hub library.
One program, one ladder
The path to Select
All three minimums, held across the review window. No composite score, no averaging.
Promotions run January 1 and July 1 — plus a one-time October 1, 2026 review for the launch year.
How work gets credited
- Register every delivery engagement, every time. An unregistered engagement earns no credit, no matter how visible the usage.
- Register early — ideally as soon as scope is agreed. If claims ever conflict, the first registered engagement holds the advantage.
- One lead partner per use case. Sub or advisory roles are never a conflict — just register the right role.
- Pilots don’t count. Go-live means sustained production consumption, as measured by Anthropic.
What we say — and what we don’t
- “Archetype Mirror is a registered member of the Claude Partner Network (Services Track).”
- “Our team is certifying through Anthropic Academy.”
- “We’re building toward Select partner status.”
- Call ourselves a “CPN partner,” use the partner badge, or imply a directory listing — those begin at Select.
- Claim endorsement, “preferred,” or “certified partner” status.
- Quote tier thresholds, incentive amounts, or deal economics outside the team — the Program Guide is confidential.
- Name a customer without written consent, or make negative comparative claims against other models.
What Select unlocks for Archetype Mirror
- Claude Partner badge and brand assets
- Public directory listing — ranked by tier, then certified bench
- Sandbox credits: $3K/yr on request
- Product update calls
- Customer Story Incentive — $5,000 per approved story above the floor (cap +3/yr; +$2,500 flagship kicker)
- 50% off first certification-exam attempt (Select tier and above only — Registered members pay full price; this is a future benefit we earn by reaching Select)
The approved tier line for launch day. Wait for Anthropic’s blog to go live, use the boilerplate, tag Anthropic so they can amplify — and never pre-announce, state numeric requirements, or claim ranking over other partners.

TODO-MACK Decision Sheet
Every open decision swept from the ten modules, each with a proposed answer. Six are sourced from code or the live site; twenty-six are bootstrap-stage defaults that need an explicit yes before going live.
Team Progress
Every consultant’s live standing — playbook completion, CCA-F course status, and where they sit against the cohort deadlines. {{ teamCount }}
CCA-F chips, left to right: AI Fluency, Claude 101, API, Bedrock, Vertex, MCP, Claude Code. Green = complete, amber = in progress, blue = registered, grey = not started. A red flag means a passed cohort deadline with the matching work still open.
