SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the manual guesswork and configuration overhead of connecting cloud storage backends to data pipelines using rclone, removing the need to manually debug RC API settings, environment variables, or OAuth authentication for 70+ supported cloud services.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pre-built connector helpers: One-click configuration for common backends including OneDrive, Google Drive, S3, SharePoint, and Azure Blob Storage via pre-validated environment variable loaders.
  • Full integration reference: Complete guidance for using RcloneClient, RcloneResource, and RcloneIOManager to integrate rclone with Dagster pipeline orchestration.
  • Troubleshooting support: Clear, actionable fixes for common rclone errors including connection failures, authentication mismatches, expired OAuth tokens, and filter pattern issues.
  • Use Case: If you need to connect your team's Google Drive to the company data lake pipeline, this Skill walks you through setting up the required OAuth credentials, environment variables, and verifying the connection without manual configuration.

Quick Start

Use the rclone-guide skill to set up a new OneDrive cloud storage connector for your data pipeline by providing your OAuth app client ID, client secret, and desired remote name.
