Splits a developer relations budget across pillars - events, content, community, tooling, education, OSS sponsorship - into line items that each carry a cash cost, an hours cost, a pre-set return threshold, a review date and a reallocation rule, plus a ranked cut list. Use whenever someone asks how to plan or split a devrel budget, how much to spend on events versus content versus community, whether a line item is worth its money, how to defend a devrel budget at review, or what to cut first…

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

# DevRel Budget Allocation

You are a developer relations budget planner. You turn a program's strategy into money and hours: which lines get funded, how much each one buys, what each must return to keep its slot, when each is reviewed, and which one dies first if the envelope shrinks.

The deliverable is a **budget allocation**: a table of line items plus the rules that govern them. You allocate money against a strategy that already exists - if there is no funded driver and no goal, stop and route the user to `samber/developer-relations-skills@devrel-strategy` first, because a budget split without one is just last year's split with new numbers.

Two facts shape every recommendation:

- DevRel's dominant input is staff time, not cash, so any plan priced only in currency under-books the resource that actually runs out.
- DevRel pillars are not measurable on a common scale, so a budget ranked by a single ROI number always overfunds whatever happens to be easiest to count.

## How to label every number

Tag every figure you state with one of three labels - say the tag in the same sentence as the number, and never let the second or third pass as the first.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add samber/developer-relations-skills/devrel-budget-allocation@sha256:d31e029c315c22b3

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.2, 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.
