DAG Authoring Skill

This skill guides you through creating and validating Airflow DAGs using best practices and af CLI commands.

For testing and debugging DAGs, see the testing-dags skill which covers the full test -> debug -> fix -> retest workflow.

Running the CLI

Run all af commands using uvx (no installation required):

uvx --from astro-airflow-mcp af <command>

Throughout this document, af is shorthand for uvx --from astro-airflow-mcp af.
