dbt-validation

dbt-validation is a skill for Claude Code from ulises-jeremias/agent-toolkit. It costs 37 tokens per session (393 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A dbt checking guide for projects that use dbt, a tool for building and testing data models. It follows the target repository's documented commands for checking syntax, compiling models, running tests, and selectively building data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate dbt project changes with commands such as parse, compile, test, dependency installation, or documented runs, then summarize the results.
Why use it?
It avoids guessing which validation commands to run and makes clear when dbt or required credentials are unavailable. It also prevents claiming that checks passed when they were skipped or failed.

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

dbt-validation 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.

What it actually says

dbt validation (HOW)

Use when the repository is a dbt project or the task requires dbt verification. Client workflows may delegate here.

Boundaries

  • Follow repo AGENTS.md, Makefile, README, and CI—not generic guesses.
  • Do not change Snowflake security settings, network rules, or warehouse admin from this skill.
  • If dbt or credentials are missing, say so and do not claim validation passed.

Discovery

Look for dbt_project.yml, packages.yml, models/, Makefile, pyproject.toml, or CI jobs that invoke dbt.

Typical commands (examples only—prefer repo docs)

Intent Often used (verify in repo)
Syntax / graph dbt parse, dbt compile
Dependencies dbt deps when packages change
Tests dbt test or subset flags the repo documents
Build dbt run / dbt build when the user approves mutating runs

Makefile wrappers (e.g. make parse) take precedence when documented.

Evidence

  • Summarize which commands ran and high-level outcome (pass/fail/skipped) for tickets and PRs.
  • On failure, capture actionable error lines; do not dump full logs unless the user asks.

Safety

  • Prefer read-only checks (parse, compile, test) when the task is review-only.
  • Production runs require explicit user approval per repo policy.
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.
