documenting-dbt-models
From the author
Documents dbt models and columns in schema.yml. Use when working with dbt documentation for: (1) Adding model descriptions or column definitions to schema.yml (2) Task mentions "document", "describe", "description", "dbt docs", or "schema.yml" (3) Explaining business context, grain, meaning of data, or business rules (4) Preparing dbt docs generate or improving model discoverability Matches existing project documentation style and conventions before writing.

- maintaining-dbt-documentationdbt-labs/dbt-agent-skillsAudits dbt documentation coverage and drafts missing model/column descriptions in the project's own house style, one folder at a time, for human review. Use when documenting undocumented models, backfilling missing YAML descriptions, auditing doc coverage, or keeping schema YAML in sync with model SQL — especially on multi-contributor projects where new models routinely land undocumented.OfficialData★ 746
- testing-dbt-modelsAltimateAI/data-engineering-skillsAdds schema tests and data quality validation to dbt models. Use when working with dbt tests for: (1) Adding or modifying tests in schema.yml files (2) Task mentions "test", "validate", "data quality", "unique", "not_null", or "accepted_values" (3) Ensuring data integrity - primary keys, foreign keys, relationships (4) Debugging test failures or understanding why dbt test failed Matches existing project test patterns and YAML style before adding new tests.Testing★ 129
- creating-dbt-modelsAltimateAI/data-engineering-skillsCreates dbt models following project conventions. Use when working with dbt models for: (1) Creating new models (any layer - discovers project's naming conventions first) (2) Task mentions "create", "build", "add", "write", "new", or "implement" with model, table, or SQL (3) Modifying existing model logic, columns, joins, or transformations (4) Implementing a model from schema.yml specs or expected output requirements Discovers project conventions before writing. Runs dbt build (not just compile) to verify.Data★ 129
- querying-the-dbt-information-schemadbt-labs/dbt-agent-skillsUse when answering questions about a dbt v2 project's own metadata — which models, sources, tests, columns, configs, tags, packages or lineage exist, what is untested or undocumented, what depends on what, how long models took in the last run — or when using `dbt show --info`, `{{ info_schema() }}`, `--generate-info-schema`, `target/info_schema/`, or writing `dbt check` SQL. Prefer this over grepping YAML or parsing `manifest.json` on dbt v2.OfficialData★ 746
- running-dbt-commandsdbt-labs/dbt-agent-skillsFormats and executes dbt CLI commands, selects the correct dbt executable, and structures command parameters. Use when running models, tests, builds, compiles, or show queries via dbt CLI. Use when unsure which dbt executable to use or how to format command parameters.OfficialData★ 746
- flux-schematonone-ai/tononeDesign and build database schema — tables, columns, types, indexes, constraints, relationships. Given a domain description, output the schema and write the files. Use when asked to "design schema", "database design", "create tables", or "data model".Data★ 76
