Use when the user asks to "check pacing", "am I over/under-spending", "is this campaign on track to hit budget", or "why did spend spike/stall mid-flight"; returns a spend-vs-target-curve read, learning-phase status, an over/under-delivery call, and a reallocation trigger. Not for initial budget allocation — use budget-optimizer; not for choosing the bid strategy — use bid-strategy-planner; not for the RQS gate — use ad-account-auditor. 付费广告预算节奏监控/跑量过快过慢/在途配速.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Budget Pacing Monitor

Reads an in-flight campaign's spend against its intended target curve and returns a pacing verdict (On-track / Ahead / Behind / Stalled), the learning-phase status, an over/under-delivery call, and a reallocation trigger when the gap crosses a stated band. This is the in-flight **S**-lever watcher on the ROAS loop — distinct from `budget-optimizer` (which sets the initial allocation this skill monitors), `bid-strategy-planner` (which picks the bid strategy), and `ad-account-auditor` (which computes the RQS). It owns the spend curve, the pace read, and the reallocation trigger — not the number it started from and not the score.

## Quick Start

```text
Check pacing on Campaign X — daily budget is $200, we're 9 days into a 30-day flight. Am I on track?
Spend spiked on the prospecting set two days ago and the daily cap is getting hit by noon — over-delivering?
This campaign has spent 30% of budget with 60% of the flight gone — is it under-delivering, and should I move budget?
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aaron-he-zhu/aaron-marketing-skills/budget-pacing-monitor@sha256:d2f7e43ec88b6d57

The line at the top of this page pins the label v20.2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
