apache-airflow-dag-creator

To scaffold an Apache Airflow DAG, this skill automates creating a standardized directory layout like dags/<pipeline>/src/main.py and daily.py, enforcing consistent structure, naming, and callback patterns across pipelines.

Configuring environment-gated scheduling for Airflow pipelines is handled automatically, applying environment-specific gating patterns across development, staging, and production workflows to prevent accidental execution in the wrong environment.

Required default args for a new Airflow pipeline include documented defaults for start_date, retries, and tagging, alongside standard Slack and Snowflake integration guidance to ensure consistent callback patterns and reduce configuration errors.

This Airflow DAG scaffolder targets new pipeline work in dags/ and related src structures, applying repository-specific conventions to ensure standardized layouts rather than refactoring pre-existing pipeline files.

Airflow DAG scaffolding includes Slack and Snowflake integration guidance out of the box, providing ready-to-run DAG templates with standard callback patterns to reduce configuration errors for local, staging, and prod environments.
