dbt Impact Analysis

Requirements

Agent: any (read-only analysis) Tools used: bash (runs altimate-dbt commands), read, glob, dbt_manifest, lineage_check, dbt_lineage, sql_analyze, altimate_core_extract_metadata

When to Use This Skill

Use when the user wants to:

• Understand what breaks if they change a model
• Evaluate downstream impact before shipping
• Find all consumers of a model or column
• Assess risk of a refactoring

Do NOT use for:

• Creating or fixing models → use dbt-develop or dbt-troubleshoot
• Adding tests → use dbt-test
