# Campaign UTM Naming Validator

## Inputs
Destination URLs, approved source/medium/campaign convention, campaign register and allowed values.

## Workflow
1. Parse each URL and preserve its original destination and query parameters. Flag missing or repeated tracking keys.
2. Compare case, separators and labels with the approved convention. Do not invent a convention from common practice.
3. Identify collisions where distinct campaigns use one label or one campaign uses inconsistent labels. Preserve differences for review.
4. Return proposed corrections without publishing links, changing ads or claiming attribution accuracy.

## Output contract
URL | source | medium | campaign | convention match | collision | proposed correction | reviewer

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional launch uses campaign=Spring and campaign=spring on two links. Under a lowercase convention flag Spring; do not collapse source=email and source=partner into one source.

## Review gates
Re-test duplicate utm_campaign keys and a URL with existing nontracking parameters. Never remove those parameters.
