Install
Skills CLI
npx skills add AltimateAI/data-engineering-skills
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add AltimateAI/data-engineering-skills --skill altimate-code — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/AltimateAI/data-engineering-skillscp -r "data-engineering-skills/skills/altimate-code" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the altimate-code skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add AltimateAI/data-engineering-skills
Run inside Claude Code if the repository ships a plugin marketplace, then pick plugins from /plugin.
Skills can run code on your machine — read the SKILL.md first.
What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.

altimate-code
Delegates dbt and warehouse work to altimate-code, a specialized CLI agent with 100+ purpose-built data tools. USE THIS SKILL FIRST whenever the task mentions or implies: warehouse access (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks, Postgres, MySQL, DuckDB), column-level lineage, downstream-impact analysis, dbt builds against a real warehouse, cross-database migration or validation, query cost att…

optimizing-databricks-sql
Analyze DBSQL queries, including SQL embedded in notebooks (`spark.sql(...)`, `%sql` cells), for anti-patterns, lint issues, and performance problems, using Databricks-specific dialect and platform knowledge (Delta, Photon, Unity Catalog) layered on top of altimate-code's generic SQL engine. Use when a user asks to optimize, review, or lint DBSQL queries on Databricks, whether standalone or embed…

creating-dbt-models
Creates 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 expect…

debugging-dbt-errors
Debugs and fixes dbt errors systematically. Use when working with dbt errors for: (1) Task mentions "fix", "error", "broken", "failing", "debug", "wrong", or "not working" (2) Compilation Error, Database Error, or test failures occur (3) Model produces incorrect output or unexpected results (4) Need to troubleshoot why a dbt command failed Reads full error, checks upstream first, runs dbt build (…

developing-incremental-models
Develops and troubleshoots dbt incremental models. Use when working with incremental materialization for: (1) Creating new incremental models (choosing strategy, unique_key, partition) (2) Task mentions "incremental", "append", "merge", "upsert", or "late arriving data" (3) Troubleshooting incremental failures (merge errors, partition pruning, schema drift) (4) Optimizing incremental performance…

documenting-dbt-models
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 exist…

migrating-sql-to-dbt
Converts legacy SQL to modular dbt models. Use when migrating SQL to dbt for: (1) Converting stored procedures, views, or raw SQL files to dbt models (2) Task mentions "migrate", "convert", "legacy SQL", "transform to dbt", or "modernize" (3) Breaking monolithic queries into modular layers (discovers project conventions first) (4) Porting existing data pipelines or ETL to dbt patterns Checks for…

refactoring-dbt-models
Safely refactors dbt models with downstream impact analysis. Use when restructuring dbt models for: (1) Task mentions "refactor", "restructure", "extract", "split", "break into", or "reorganize" (2) Extracting CTEs to intermediate models or creating macros (3) Modifying model logic that has downstream consumers (4) Renaming columns, changing types, or reorganizing model dependencies Analyzes all…

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
