BR: yBudget Cat Herder #2

[0xPickles]

Scope

Refer to previous request & end of period report: #213

The Cat Herder is responsible for overseeing operational processes and ensuring the yBudget team makes timely and informed decisions. This role serves as a process owner, acting impartially without voting rights. Responsibilities include making corrections and clarifications, proposing consensus-driven solutions, and ensuring adherence to proper procedures. The role does not directly influence decision-making outcomes.

A priority for this period is to prepare the robokitty budget automation system for open-sourcing and feature completion. This is intended to be the final Development mode request. Afterward, the Cat Herder will transition into a smaller maintenance mode role.
