Emoji Score FAQ

Public-safe answers for scoring, proposal exports, local drafts, API/MCP access, protected actions, and model-degraded states.

What is Emoji Score?
Emoji Score is the PlatPhormNews emoji scoring, sentiment scoring, symbolic-expression scoring, and Unicode-style proposal workbench. It helps humans and agents evaluate existing emoji and new emoji ideas without claiming Unicode acceptance.
Are scores deterministic or AI-generated?
Phase 1 scores are deterministic unless a backend model provider is explicitly configured. Model-backed proposal writing and image-prompt actions report unavailable or degraded state instead of faking output.
Where does emoji data come from?
The bundled dataset is parsed from unicode.org/Public/emoji/latest/emoji-test.txt and includes fully-qualified Unicode emoji records with names, code points, groups, subgroups, and Emoji version data.
What is saved locally?
Non-sensitive proposal draft fields and UI state can be saved in browser-local storage, with IndexedDB preferred. Private proposal drafts and PLATPHORM_API_KEY are not stored server-side or in browser storage by default.
Which actions require PLATPHORM_API_KEY?
Protected server persistence, protected model generation, bulk scoring, webhook mutation, registry mutation, report generation, test triggering, and admin actions require PLATPHORM_API_KEY via Authorization: Bearer or X-PlatPhorm-API-Key.
Can I download a proposal?
Yes. Public-safe proposal export works as a Markdown download without server persistence. The export includes factor scores, enhanced sentiment/symbolic notes, recommendations, and prompt scaffolds.
Does Emoji Score generate images?
No image is claimed as generated unless a real backend generation call completes. Phase 1 provides deterministic image and proposal-illustration prompt scaffolding and clearly labels generation as unavailable when no provider is configured.
How do agents use Emoji Score?
Agents can read llms.txt, llms-full.txt, llms-index.json, openapi.yaml, and /.well-known/mcp.json, then call /api/mcp with JSON-RPC 2.0 for public-safe scoring and proposal tools.
