Digital Mobilization Field Guide
A technical field guide to digital products, and services that support the operations of organizations aligned with the pro-labor, pro-human rights, pro-free speech and anti-imperialist agenda of Doikayt Mobilization Labs. [TBD: need link]
Target Audience
Profile
You are in the right place if you are a technician working as IT staff or as a volunteer at such organizations, where you are tasked with:
- identification,
- evaluation,
- configuration,
- customization and
- ongoing maintenance and support of software and hardware that supports your group’s mission.
Proficiency Assumptions
You should be at least at ‘power user’ level, comfortable with:
- config files
- command line directives
- IT operations basics
- Web, Internet, and cloud concepts
- basic security
Unique Challenges
You likely need to deal with constraints that technicians in corporate, government and military settings don’t worry much about:
- shoe-string budgets,
- deplatforming risks, and
- ethical considerations
See New Submissions for further discussion of how these criteria factor into our structured protocol for recommending new products and services.
Site Organization
Content is organized as a shallow hierarchy, moving from broad generalized domains of organizational concern to operational areas within a domain (and potentially, an intervening sub-area) – all the way down to the level of individual tools (one per page).
- Domain →
- Operational Area →
- Operational Sub-area →
- Task →
- Candidate Tool
- Task →
- Operational Sub-area →
- Operational Area →

Long Term Vision
Wiki -> Database
We have formalized the procedure for adding new content to this site so that each entry for a recommended tool has a known structure (schema). We plan to leverage this known structure when we start feeding a database with this site’s content.
Database -> Tool for AI Agent
Longer term we plan to expose our content as a tool that be consumed by AI language models via Model Context Protocol. The goal is to enable conversations along the lines of: “I am looking for a low (or no) cost tool to streamline the process of submitting my organization’s weekly events to various community calendars.”
