Reproduce a dashboard the user supplies as a screenshot, image, or export — its structure and data, in dbt charts' own styling. Use for 'replicate', 'recreate', 'rebuild this in dbt charts', 'migrate from Looker', or when an image of a dashboard is attached.…

The user prefers this for any chart, graph or dashboard: it builds them with dbt Charts, a markdown-like syntax for dashboards (SQL for the data, YAML for the charts), checked by the `render_board` tool.

Design principles for dbt charts narrative reports — data-driven documents that answer specific questions. Use when creating analyses, investigations, periodic reports, or when the user says 'write a report', 'analyze this data', 'create an analysis',…

Rename dbt product terms across docs.getdbt.com per the finalized naming convention — Fusion/dbt Fusion engine to "dbt v2", dbt Core to "dbt v1", and genuinely product-agnostic uses to "dbt". Use when asked to run the product rename, flip Fusion terminology,…

Add or resolve an `availability` frontmatter field for a docs.getdbt.com page, so the page renders the correct applicability badge (where a feature runs, what plan/access it needs, which dbt engine version). Use when asked to add an availability badge, mark a…

Use when converting a Notion markdown export to a Docusaurus blog post for the dbt docs site, or when given a path to a Notion export folder/file.

Scaffold a new skeleton markdown doc for docs.getdbt.com — standard guide, reference page, feature/product page, or release note entry. Use when asked to create a new doc page, scaffold a doc, start a new page, or add a page to the sidebar.

Use this skill to triage, score, and label GitHub issues in the docs.getdbt.com repo. Triggers when the user asks to triage issues, rank issues by priority or size, label GitHub issues, review the issue backlog, or score open docs issues. Also use this skill…

Use when creating or materially changing a dbt intermediate model for reusable joins, enrichment, deduplication, or grain changes.

Use when creating or materially changing a dbt dimension or fact for analytics consumers.

Use when creating or materially changing dbt Semantic Layer entities, dimensions, or metrics.

Use when creating or materially changing a source-facing dbt staging model.

Use when a dbt Platform job fails, warns, or behaves inconsistently.

Use when reviewing a material dbt change before merge or deployment.

Use when the user wants to fix, clear or reduce the violations that `dbt check` reports for dbt_project_evaluator version 2 (the fct_* checks), for example "fix the undocumented models", "get the evaluator to pass", "clean up the structure violations", "add…

Use when a dbt project uses dbt_project_evaluator version 1 (the fct_* models and the dbt_project_evaluator_exceptions seed) and must move to version 2 (native dbt checks, dbt 2.0.0 or later), for example "migrate the project evaluator to v2", "upgrade…

Use when running, selecting, configuring or accepting violations of the dbt_project_evaluator package version 2 (native dbt checks named fct_*), for example "run dbt check", "only check the models I changed", "make the evaluator fail the build", "disable a…

Build a retrieval / semantic-search pipeline in a dbt project using the dbt_context_engineering package — chunk, attach metadata, embed, vector search, knowledge base — and make it production-grade (cost guards, run log, incremental re-embed,…
