profiling-tables
Comprehensive statistical and quality analysis of database tables with structured profiling output.
- Generates column-level statistics tailored to data type: min/max/percentiles for numeric columns, length metrics for strings, date ranges for timestamps
- Performs cardinality analysis to identify categorical vs. high-cardinality columns and detect skewed distributions
- Assesses data quality across five dimensions: completeness (NULL rates), uniqueness (duplicates), freshness (update timestamps), validity (range/format checks), and consistency (logical contradictions)
- Outputs a structured profile including schema overview, key statistics, quality scores, identified issues, and recommended follow-up queries for new team members
Data Profile
Generate a comprehensive profile of a table that a new team member could use to understand the data.
Step 1: Basic Metadata
Query column metadata:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME, DATA_TYPE, COMMENT
FROM <database>.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = '<schema>' AND TABLE_NAME = '<table>'
ORDER BY ORDINAL_POSITION
If the table name isn't fully qualified, search INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES to locate it first.
Step 2: Size and Shape

airflow
Queries, manages, and troubleshoots Apache Airflow using the af CLI. Covers listing DAGs, triggering runs, reading task logs, diagnosing failures, debugging DAG import errors, checking connections, variables, pools, and monitoring health. Also routes to sub-skills for writing DAGs, debugging, deploying, and migrating Airflow 2 to 3. Use when user mentions "Airflow", "DAG", "DAG run", "task log", "import error", "parse error", "broken DAG", or asks to "trigger a pipeline", "debug import errors", "check Airflow health", "list connections", "retry a run", or any Airflow operation. Do NOT use for warehouse/SQL analytics on Airflow metadata tables — use analyzing-data instead.
814analyzing-data
Queries data warehouse and answers business questions about data. Handles questions requiring database/warehouse queries including "who uses X", "how many Y", "show me Z", "find customers", "what is the count", data lookups, metrics, trends, or SQL analysis.
755authoring-dags
Workflow and best practices for writing Apache Airflow DAGs. Use when the user wants to create a new DAG, write pipeline code, or asks about DAG patterns and conventions. For testing and debugging DAGs, see the testing-dags skill.
704migrating-airflow-2-to-3
Guide for migrating Apache Airflow 2.x projects to Airflow 3.x. Use when the user mentions Airflow 3 migration, upgrade, compatibility issues, breaking changes, or wants to modernize their Airflow codebase. If you detect Airflow 2.x code that needs migration, prompt the user and ask if they want you to help upgrade. Always load this skill as the first step for any migration-related request.
698debugging-dags
Comprehensive DAG failure diagnosis and root cause analysis. Use for complex debugging requests requiring deep investigation like "diagnose and fix the pipeline", "full root cause analysis", "why is this failing and how to prevent it". For simple debugging ("why did dag fail", "show logs"), the airflow entrypoint skill handles it directly. This skill provides structured investigation and prevention recommendations.
693testing-dags
Complex DAG testing workflows with debugging and fixing cycles. Use for multi-step testing requests like "test this dag and fix it if it fails", "test and debug", "run the pipeline and troubleshoot issues". For simple test requests ("test dag", "run dag"), the airflow entrypoint skill handles it directly. This skill is for iterative test-debug-fix cycles.
