System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill guides the diagnosis and resolution of dbt Cloud/platform job failures where error messages are ambiguous, helping teams identify the root cause more quickly.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured diagnosis workflow: Gather job run data via MCP tools, classify error types (Infrastructure, Code/Compilation, Data/Test Failure), and outline remediation steps.
  • Guided remediation: Create fix branches, add unit tests, and document findings when root causes are identified or when investigations are inconclusive.
  • Use Case: A post-merge job fails with unclear errors; run this skill to determine whether the issue is infrastructure, code changes, or data, and receive a concrete action plan.

Quick Start

Provide the failing dbt Cloud job run ID and relevant logs to begin the diagnosis process.
