Most used
Specialized skill for diagnosing and fixing software defects in the repository.
Connect an AI coding agent to Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, or ClickHouse so it can run SQL. Use when warehouse access is missing, authentication or connection selection is required, or before using a warehouse-data skill such as agents-schema-search.
Production-ready patterns for dbt (data build tool) including model organization, testing strategies, documentation, and incremental processing.
MCP server for long-lived dbt artifact analysis backed by @dbt-tools/core
Predicts the DDL a dbt change will execute, before you run it. Reads files, not the warehouse.
Use dbt-checkpoint when an agent should catch dbt naming, dependency, metadata, and model-hygiene issues before review or merge.
