astro-airflow

astro-airflow is a skill for Claude Code from vanducng/skills. It costs 153 tokens per session (3,238 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A read-only debugging tool for Airflow deployments running on Astronomer, a managed service for Airflow workflows. It inspects workflow runs, task and container logs, configuration values, and deployment state.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect workflow runs, import errors, task logs, container logs, environment variables, health, connections, variables, pools, and deployment status. It is for remote staging or production investigation, not for writing workflow files.
Why use it?
It brings the information needed to investigate failed or unhealthy workflows into one command-line workflow. It helps distinguish problems in a remote deployment from problems in local development.

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 B, and why

astro-airflow scanned grade B with 2 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.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

afw() { curl -fsSL -X "$1" -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ASTRO_TOKEN}" -H "Content-Type: application/json" "${AF_URL}$2" -d "$3"; }

Makes network callslowCapability

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

astro-airflow

Read-only debugging surface for Airflow on Astro. Pair three tools:

Need Tool
DAG runs, task logs, import errors, health, connections, variables, pools af (Airflow REST wrapper)
Container logs, deployment inspect, env vars, hibernate/wake astro deployment ...
Local astro dev start / parse / scheduler restart vd:managing-astro-local-env
Create or edit YAML DAGs vd:dag-factory
User says "use Otto", long audit, Airflow 2→3 upgrade vd:delegating-to-otto
Deep RCA after logs are in hand vd:debug then vd:fix
af not installed or no remote instance configured curl against /api/v2/ (Airflow 3) or /api/v1/ (Airflow 2)

Prerequisites

  • astro CLI ≥ 1.42, logged in (astro login; verify with astro context list)
  • curl + jq
  • af optional but preferred: uv tool install astro-airflow-mcp (one-shot: uvx --from astro-airflow-mcp af)
  • A Deployment / Workspace / Organization API token in gopass for curl fallback. Mint via Astro UI → Deployment → Access → API Tokens. Least-privilege: deployment.get + deployment.airflow.*.get.

Always resolve the live deployment ID first. IDs in project docs go stale.

astro deployment list
astro deployment inspect <deployment-id> --key metadata.airflow_api_url

Choose the interface

  1. Named Otto / upgrade / long investigation → vd:delegating-to-otto.
  2. af on PATH (or uvx --from astro-airflow-mcp af) and a configured instance → use af. See references/af.md.
  3. Platform / container logs / env vars → astro deployment ... below.
  4. Otherwise → curl fallback.

af instance discover creates API tokens in Astro Cloud. Always --dry-run first and get explicit approval before a real discover.

uvx --from astro-airflow-mcp af instance list
uvx --from astro-airflow-mcp af instance discover --dry-run
# only after the user says yes:
# uvx --from astro-airflow-mcp af instance discover astro
uvx --from astro-airflow-mcp af instance use <name>

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.

astro-airflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository vanducng/skills (8 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 153 tokens to every session and 3,238 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
