What is qlik-to-sigma?

A migration tool for rebuilding Qlik Sense or Qlik Cloud apps in Sigma. Qlik is a business-intelligence platform, and Sigma is another platform for analyzing data and creating workbooks.

Use it to inspect a Qlik Cloud app or offline export, translate Qlik expressions, create a Sigma data model, and build a matching workbook.

It helps move Qlik apps to Sigma while accounting for their data models, expressions, and dashboard structure. Qlik expressions are formulas used to calculate values or control analyses.

qlik-to-sigma — Skill for Claude Code by twells89

Install

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/twells89/sigma-migration-skills

agentmods

npx agentmods add skills/twells89/sigma-migration-skills/qlik-to-sigma

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install qlik-to-sigma, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 2 skills.

Security scan A 1 finding. A grade says what 26 rules found in the file — not that it is safe. Third-party audits

NVIDIA SkillSpector warn 7 Sept 2026

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

medium Agent Snooping · line 122
Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.

Fix: Remove all code or instructions that list or read other skills' files or directories. Skills should operate independently; cross-skill access is a privilege escalation.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00141	$0.12245
Opus 5	$0.00071	$0.06123
Sonnet 5	$0.00028	$0.02449
Haiku 4.5	$0.00014	$0.01225

Security

Grade A, and why

qlik-to-sigma scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 9 executable files (converter/qlik.mjs, scripts/apply_sigma_rls.py, scripts/assert-phase6-ran.rb, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 595 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Qlik → Sigma Conversion

Windows / first run — run the environment doctor before anything else: bash scripts/doctor.sh (macOS/Linux/Git Bash) or powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\doctor.ps1 (Windows). It checks Ruby/Python/Node/bash and flags the Python "Store stub" + CRLF with exact fixes. Details: refs/environment.md.

Preflight the workbook spec before POST (mandatory)

Before POSTing any workbook spec, run ruby scripts/lib/preflight_lint.rb <spec.json> — it exits 1 with a precise message on the two migration-killer bugs: a table with aggregate columns + dimensions but no groupings (renders raw detail rows), and a malformed control (missing id/controlId/controlType or nesting value fields under a value object instead of flat, a non-double-nested source, or a list control wired to neither source nor filters — a filters-only list control is valid). Fix every violation first — never POST past it, and never conclude a feature is "unsupported" from an Invalid kind error (it means the inner fields are wrong). Verified shapes: sigma-workbooks controls.md / tables.md.

Phase 0 — Choose where to build (ask first when no destination given)

Don't silently land the migrated data model + workbook in an auto-picked folder. If the user didn't supply a destination (no --folder <id>), ASK before building:

ruby scripts/pick-destination.rb list → { workspaces, folders (editable, with parentName), myDocuments }
Let the user pick ONE: a workspace (its id lands content in the workspace root), an existing folder, My Documents (when non-null — null for service tokens), or create a new folder: ruby scripts/pick-destination.rb create --name "<name>" [--parent <workspace-or-folder-id>]
Pass the chosen id as --folder <id>. folderId accepts a workspace id or a folder id.

If a destination is already supplied, honor it silently — don't ask.

STATUS: VALIDATED end-to-end (2026-06-02; generalized + re-validated 2026-06-10). The full flow below was proven on a real migration ("Retail Orders (Qlik)" → Sigma) with exact parity to the Snowflake source at the data-model, denormalized-element, and workbook-chart layers — and the 2026-06-10 run produced the multi-page workbook (one Sigma page per Qlik sheet, layout straight from the sheet cell grids) from ONE command with zero hand-edits in under 2 minutes.

What ships with it

60 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

qlik-to-sigma is a skill published in the GitHub repository twells89/sigma-migration-skills (16 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 141 tokens to every session and 12,245 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
