There are no dedictated tools to create a budget in Beancount itself. You will find prior discussions on this list (and the Ledger list) about how to setup double-entry accounts to do budgets, but IMO it doesn't work well. The better way to do budgets in that setting would be to create a new directive that expresses constraints on changes or balances of a particular account. This is not implemented.
I think the Fava team has prototyped something however, using the Custom directive. Maybe they can chip in about the status of that project.
