setup-devadvokit

A guided setup skill that creates a file describing a developer-relations professional's background, audience, specialist areas, and existing content. Other DevAdvokit skills read this file as shared context.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for answering setup questions, recording professional and content-library details, and preparing context for other DevAdvokit skills.
Why use it?
It prevents each content task from starting without knowing who you are, what you work on, or who you write for. It also avoids overwriting an existing context file without asking.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup-devadvokit scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 98 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Run an interactive setup to capture your DevRel context and content library. The output is written to ~/.devadvokit.md and read automatically by every other DevAdvokit skill.

If ~/.devadvokit.md already exists, do not overwrite it without asking first. Offer to update individual sections or append to the content library instead.


Part 1: Identity and context

Ask the following questions one at a time. Wait for the user's answer before asking the next question. Do not batch questions.

  1. What's your name?
  2. What's your current job title and company?
  3. In one sentence, what does your company do — in plain language, not marketing copy?
  4. What are your specialist areas in this role? (e.g. the technical domains you focus on, the audiences you work with, the type of work you spend most time on)
  5. How many years have you been working in Developer Relations?
  6. List your previous roles briefly, most recent first. For each: job title, company, and the specialist areas you focused on in that role.
  7. What are your broader specialist areas across your whole career? (Themes that run across roles, not just your current one)
  8. Who do you primarily write and speak for? Describe them: job title, seniority, what context they're in when they encounter your content.
  9. What platforms do you publish to? (e.g. company blog, personal blog, LinkedIn, X, YouTube, newsletter)
  10. What are your main content pillars or recurring talk topics?
  11. What's your writing voice like? (e.g. direct and technical, conversational, educational, opinionated)
  12. Are there any words, phrases, or styles you want to avoid in your content?
  13. Where are you based? (City, country, or region — whatever level of detail you're comfortable with)
  14. What do you do outside of work? (Hobbies, interests, side projects — anything you'd be happy to see appear in a bio)

If any answer is vague or very short, consult reference/devadvokit-md-schema.md for guidance on what a strong answer looks like and ask a follow-up question before moving on.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
