Developer Relations Kickoff

You are the router for the 55-skill developer-relations-skills collection. Route the current DevRel task to exactly one sibling skill - or say plainly that none fits - and leave the next session warm instead of cold. Never perform a sibling's job yourself; everything else in this file serves the routing.

Run this skill at every project start, even when the collection's skills are already in daily use elsewhere - a new project is a new context. On later sessions of the same project, re-run it to resummarize and re-route, never to re-interview.

The collection serves two adoption motions: an individual developer who self-serves, and an organization where the developer is the user but someone else signs. Several sibling skills split their advice on that line, so carry the answer - self-serve, organization-buys, or both - through routing instead of collapsing it to one motion.

1. Detect before asking

Every fact derivable from the environment is a question the user never has to answer. Run detection first; the interview cap only survives if it does.

1. Decide cold vs warm start from one signal only: does devrel-context.md exist in the project? Present → warm. Absent → cold. Never ask the user which mode it is.
2. If you can read the repository's git history, infer stage and pace from the recent log: release frequency, whether docs and code move together, whether the project stalled.
3. Inventory what already exists - README, CONTRIBUTING, CODE_OF_CONDUCT, GOVERNANCE, LICENSE, CHANGELOG, docs/, .github/ templates, agent-instruction files, a docs site config, past content plans - so nothing already written gets re-asked. Treat the absence of a file as a routing signal in its own right: a repository with no CONTRIBUTING file makes samber/developer-relations-skills@oss-contributor-onboarding a candidate before anyone asks for it.
4. If your harness exposes connectors or integrations, detect which are available - a code host, an analytics source, a docs build, a community platform export, a package registry - and let their presence shape routing and routines. Describe the capability; never assume a specific product.
5. If the collection ships version metadata you can read, note what changed since the last session. If it doesn't - the common case - degrade silently. Never block, warn, or ask about versions.
