SnowPro Certification Study Skill — Router

This is the entry point for all SnowPro certification study activities. It handles certification discovery, user routing, and delegates to focused sub-skills for content generation.

Documentation Access Strategy

Before generating ANY content, determine the best documentation source available.

Step 1: Check for Snowflake Documentation Knowledge Extension

Run the following to detect if the connected Snowflake account has access to the Documentation Knowledge extension (either directly or through a Cortex Agent):

cortex search docs "Snowflake architecture overview"

If the command returns meaningful results (not an error or empty):

• Use cortex search docs "<query>" as the PRIMARY documentation source for all content grounding
• This is faster, more reliable, and avoids issues with dynamically rendered web pages
• Supplement with web_fetch only when the search doesn't cover a specific topic

If the command fails or returns no results:

Prompt the user via ask_user_question to install the Cortex Knowledge Extension (CKE), which provides the best documentation grounding:

"The Snowflake Documentation Knowledge Extension isn't available on this connection. The CKE provides the most accurate and reliable documentation grounding for study content. Would you like to install it?"

Options:

1. Install on current connection — Install the CKE on the active Snowflake connection
2. Install on a different connection — Let the user pick another existing connection to install on
3. Install on a new connection — Guide the user through setting up a new connection and installing
4. Skip — use web fetch instead — Fall back to web_fetch against docs.snowflake.com (less reliable, slower)

If the user chooses to install (options 1-3):

• Guide them through CKE installation on the selected connection
• After installation, re-run cortex search docs "Snowflake architecture overview" to confirm it works
• Proceed with cortex search docs as the primary documentation source

If the user declines (option 4):

• Fall back to against URLs
