Lakehouse pipeline design (Databricks)

Use this skill when someone asks for a pipeline design, DLT design, ETL plan, CDC ingestion, or a review of an existing pipeline.

Deliverables

When activated, produce at least:

1. A filled design doc based on assets/pipeline-design-doc.md
2. A short, actionable implementation checklist (you can reuse references/pipeline-checklist.md)

Optionally (only if asked): a code skeleton (PySpark / SQL / DLT) that matches the design.

Minimal inputs (ask only what’s missing)

Ask up to 3 questions total. Prefer defaults.
