SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires pyyaml, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Manually verifying that Gold layer data engineering implementations match approved design specifications is time-consuming and error-prone, with drift between code and specs causing downstream analytics failures and production incidents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive Compliance Checks: Validates builder presence, schema alignment, SCD2 read patterns, DQ gate ordering, DAG wiring, and requirement traceability against LLD §5.3, DMS §4, STM Silver-to-Gold mappings, and DQS §2-3 rules.
  • Severity-Ranked Reporting: Produces clear, prioritized audit findings (CRITICAL, WARNING, INFO) so teams can fix high-impact issues first.
  • Use Case: Run this skill before promoting a Gold layer build to production to catch missing builders, schema mismatches, or incorrect SCD2 filtering that would break downstream consumer reports.

Quick Start

Use the validate-gold skill to audit the patient_360 Gold layer implementation against the latest approved design specifications and receive a severity-ranked list of any compliance gaps or implementation drift.

Frequently Asked Questions about validate-gold

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I detect implementation drift in Gold layer data engineering code?

To detect Gold layer implementation drift, validate your data engineering code against approved low-level design, data model specifications, and data quality standards to identify schema mismatches and non-compliant read patterns before production promotion.

Can I validate SCD2 read patterns and DQ gate ordering before promoting a Gold layer build?

Yes, you can validate SCD2 read pattern compliance and DQ gate ordering by auditing Airflow DAG wiring and builder implementations against state transition matrix mappings and DQS section 2-3 Gold rules.

What is the best way to audit schema alignment for a patient_360 Gold layer implementation?

The best way to audit schema alignment for a patient_360 Gold layer is to validate builder presence and schema structures against LLD section 5.3 and DMS section 4, generating severity-ranked findings for engineering remediation.

Does schema validation for Gold layer data engineering require Airflow DAG wiring checks?

Yes, comprehensive Gold layer schema validation requires checking Airflow DAG wiring to ensure data quality gate ordering and state transition matrix Silver-to-Gold mappings are correctly implemented before production promotion.

Why does my Gold layer implementation fail requirement traceability checks during a pre-promotion audit?

Gold layer implementations fail requirement traceability checks when code drifts from approved LLD section 5.3 specifications, missing required builders or incorrect SCD2 filtering that breaks downstream consumer reports.

Do I need pyyaml to run a Gold layer data quality compliance audit?

Yes, pyyaml is required as a dependency to parse and validate the YAML-formatted low-level design and data model specification documents during the Gold layer data quality compliance audit.
