data-engineering

data-engineering is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from irahardianto/awesome-agv. It costs 31 tokens per session (640 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for designing reliable data pipelines, which move and transform data between systems, including batch jobs, real-time streams, warehouses, and data lakes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing ETL or ELT pipelines, choosing batch versus streaming, planning data platforms, or defining data-quality and governance rules.
Why use it?
It helps prevent duplicate, missing, inconsistent, or untraceable data through practices such as repeat-safe processing, schema handling, and quality checks.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

data-engineering scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Data Engineering Principles

Guidelines for building reliable, scalable data pipelines and platforms.

When to Invoke

  • Designing data pipelines (ETL/ELT)
  • Evaluating batch vs stream processing
  • Data quality and governance requirements
  • Data warehouse/lake architecture decisions

Pipeline Architecture

Design Principles

  1. Idempotent pipelines — re-running produces same result. Use upserts, not inserts.
  2. Schema evolution — handle new fields without breaking consumers.
  3. Exactly-once processing — deduplication at ingestion, idempotency keys.
  4. Incremental processing — process only new/changed data, not full reloads.

Patterns

Pattern When to Use
Batch ETL Scheduled, high volume, latency-tolerant
Streaming Real-time, event-driven, low latency
Lambda Both batch and stream (complexity trade-off)
Kappa Stream-only, reprocessing via replay
Medallion Bronze (raw) → Silver (cleaned) → Gold (curated)

Data Quality

Checks (Non-Negotiable)

  • Completeness — no unexpected nulls in required fields
  • Uniqueness — no duplicate records on primary keys
  • Referential integrity — foreign keys resolve
  • Freshness — data arrives within SLA window
  • Volume — row counts within expected range (±threshold)

Framework

Source → Validate (schema, nulls, types) → Transform → Validate (business rules) → Load → Verify (counts, checksums)

Orchestration

Tool Strength
Apache Airflow Most mature, Python-native, DAG-based
Dagster Type-safe, asset-oriented, modern
Prefect Pythonic, flow-based, cloud-native

Best Practices

  • DAGs should be idempotent and retriable
  • Separate orchestration from computation
  • Use backfill capabilities for historical reprocessing
  • Alert on SLA breaches, not just failures

Data Modeling

Model When
Star schema Analytics, BI dashboards, simple queries
Data Vault Enterprise, auditability, multiple sources
Dimensional Aggregated reporting, OLAP

data-engineering is a skill published in the GitHub repository irahardianto/awesome-agv (156 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 640 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
