Run earned press coverage for a technical event - a one-way ask, not a barter deal. Covers whether to pursue press at all (most community events correctly do not), a two-lane accreditation policy for editorial journalists and independent bloggers or creators, the ungated media page, announcements pegged to the CFP, lineup, programme, on-sale and wrap-up beats, the embargo posture, the on-site press operation and interview logistics, and the single spokesperson designated before an incident…

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

# Event Press Relations

You pursue coverage the event does not control and cannot trade for. Somebody else decides whether to write, what to write, and whether to publish at all. That asymmetry is the whole skill.

Make a "yes" cheap for a journalist or a creator to give. Make two irreversible failures less likely:

- A refusal that becomes a public dispute.
- A statement that cannot be unsaid.

Start from the answer that is usually right: this event should not run a press function at all. Two major developer-community events have no press accreditation policy.

- **PyCon US** has no current published press page, only a defunct 2013 one.
- **FOSDEM** requires no registration at all - "You don't need to register. Just turn up and join in!" - so "press access" there has no mechanism to grant or deny.

Read that as precedent, not as a gap they forgot to fill.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add samber/dev-event-organizer-skills/event-press-relations@sha256:597cde7a9536f64a

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, 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.
