Questions about confluent-cloud-cdc-tableflow
What does the confluent-cloud-cdc-tableflow skill do?
Set up end-to-end Change Data Capture (CDC) pipelines on Confluent Cloud using Debezium source connectors, Flink for transformation, and Tableflow for data lake integration. Supports JSON_SR, Avro, and Protobuf formats. Handles schemaless topics (plain JSON without SR) and multi-event topics. This skill handles the complete workflow from database to Iceberg/Delta tables. Use this skill when users want to capture database changes and materialize them into Iceberg or Delta Lake tables via Confluent Cloud Tableflow. Trigger phrases include "CDC to Tableflow", "database to Iceberg", "database to Delta Lake", "stream database changes to data lake", "set up Tableflow pipeline", "schemaless topic to Tableflow", or "multi-event topic to Iceberg". Do NOT trigger for general CDC, Debezium, or database replication requests that do not involve Tableflow or Iceberg/Delta Lake as the destination.
How do I install confluent-cloud-cdc-tableflow?
In a terminal: npx skills add confluentinc/agent-skills --skill confluent-cloud-cdc-tableflow. The skills CLI asks which agents to install it for. In Claude.ai you can upload the skill folder as a ZIP under Settings → Skills.
Which agents can use confluent-cloud-cdc-tableflow?
Skills use the open SKILL.md format, which Claude Code, Claude.ai, the Claude API, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents support.
Is confluent-cloud-cdc-tableflow safe to use?
Our automatic check found no risky patterns (piped shell scripts, hidden characters, secret access, prompt overrides). It is not a full audit – read the SKILL.md and any scripts before installing.

Write and debug Flink SQL that runs on Confluent Cloud, enforcing the CC-vs-Apache-Flink (OSS) dialect boundary. Use when the working directory is a Confluent Cloud Flink workspace, when a Flink SQL statement needs checking before it runs on a CC compute pool, or when the user mentions CC Flink, Confluent Cloud Flink SQL, the `confluent flink` CLI, a CFU compute pool, `CREATE CONNECTION`, or asks to check or debug Flink SQL whose runtime is Confluent Cloud. Also trigger when a Flink SQL question is posed and nothing establishes an Apache Flink OSS runtime. Do NOT trigger for: building or deploying Flink UDFs in Java (UDF/UDTF/PTF — use flink-udf); a full CDC pipeline from a database through Flink into Tableflow/Iceberg/Delta Lake (use confluent-cloud-cdc-tableflow); Kafka Streams topology work (use kafka-streams-programming); or Flink SQL confirmed to run on Apache Flink OSS, not Confluent Cloud.
Create Confluent-specific skills for external users. Use this skill when users want to create, build, or author a new skill related to Confluent Cloud, Confluent Platform, Apache Kafka, WarpStream, Flink, Connectors, Schema Registry, Tableflow, CDC pipelines, or any Confluent product. Skills can be use-case focused (like data enrichment, CDC to Tableflow, stream processing workflows) or component-specific (like a Flink skill, Schema Registry skill, or Connector skill). Do NOT use this skill when users want to directly use Confluent products (e.g., build a pipeline, write a producer, deploy Flink SQL) — use the appropriate product-specific skill instead. This skill is specifically for creating new skills, not for using existing ones.
Review a Confluent agent skill in this repo against the Agent Skills spec (agentskills.io), Confluent conventions in CLAUDE.md, the PR template gates, and the evals-as-contract rule. Use this skill whenever the user asks to review, audit, validate, or lint a skill; opens or inspects a PR that adds or modifies anything under `skills/`; asks about spec conformance, lazy-loading, frontmatter shape, trigger overlap, or eval coverage; or wants a pre-merge sanity check on skill changes. Do NOT trigger for general code review of application code; security review; auditing schemas, producer/consumer configs, PII tagging, or Terraform generation for Schema Registry (handled by `kafka-schema-registry`); runtime/log analysis of skill behavior (use `tools/skill_review_dashboard.py`); or any changes that don't touch the `skills/` tree.
Helps with stuff.
Generate a Confluent Cloud topic creation script with idempotency checks. Use when the user asks to create a topic, provision topics, or write a `create-topics.sh` for Confluent Cloud. Do NOT trigger for self-managed Apache Kafka, schema registration, Terraform generation, or Kafka Streams topology authoring.
Generate a Kafka consumer group lag dashboard. Use when the user asks to monitor lag, build a dashboard for consumer lag, or wire up Prometheus exporters for Kafka. Do NOT trigger for producer metrics, broker JMX, or Streams-specific monitoring.
Enrich a customer-orders stream with loyalty tier using Flink SQL on Confluent Cloud. Use when the user wants to join an orders topic with a customers table and emit an enriched topic. Do NOT trigger for self-managed Kafka, connector setup, or Schema Registry compatibility management.
Generate a Schema Registry compatibility report for Avro schemas in a project. Use when the user asks to check Avro compatibility, validate schema evolution, or report breaking changes. Do NOT trigger for Protobuf, JSON Schema, or Kafka client code generation.

Postgres best practices maintained by Supabase, for Postgres running anywhere. Load this skill BEFORE writing or changing anything that lives in a Postgres database: creating or altering tables and columns (including choosing column types), schema design, migrations and declarative schema files, RLS policies and the tests that verify them, indexes, triggers, database functions, queues and scheduled jobs (pg_cron, pgmq), vector/semantic search (pgvector), and restoring dumps (pg_restore) or importing data. Also load it when diagnosing slow queries, high CPU, timeouts, EXPLAIN plans, connection exhaustion, locking, bloat, or rows visible to the wrong user or tenant. This is not just a performance guide — schema, migration, security, and SQL authoring tasks need these rules too, even for a one-column change or a single query.

Obtain or reuse a Prisma Postgres database and connect an application. Use when the user needs a database and has none configured ("I need a database", "add a Postgres database", "set up a database for this app"), runs or mentions `create-db` or `npx create-db`, or asks to set up or connect Prisma Postgres, including in v0 and the Vercel Marketplace. Hands Prisma ORM configuration to prisma-orm-setup; reuses an existing connection first and honors an explicit provider, driver, alternative ORM, or database-only choice.
Required reference for Prisma ORM 7 SQL driver adapter work. Use when implementing or modifying adapters, adding database drivers, or touching SqlDriverAdapter, Transaction, savepoint, result mapping, or DriverAdapterError behavior. Covers current transaction lifecycle, optional savepoint hooks, original database-error preservation, and verification.
Use when doing ANY task involving Supabase. Triggers: Supabase products (Database, Auth, Edge Functions, Realtime, Storage, Vectors, Cron, Queues); client libraries and SSR integrations (supabase-js, @supabase/ssr) in Next.js, React, SvelteKit, Astro, Remix; auth issues (login, logout, sessions, JWT, cookies, getSession, getUser, getClaims, RLS); Supabase CLI or MCP server; schema changes, migrations, declarative schemas, security audits, Postgres extensions (pg_graphql, pg_cron, pg_vector); debugging and troubleshooting errors or unexpected behavior on Supabase projects (HTTP errors, Postgres errors, RLS surprises, permission denied, schema cache issues, timeouts, Edge Function crashes, Realtime drops, Storage failures) and reading or querying logs (Logs Explorer, ClickHouse).
Guides and best practices for working with Lakebase Postgres on Neon: connections, pooled vs direct, schema migrations, branching (including schema-only, reset-from-parent, and branch-per-PR workflows), autoscaling, scale-to-zero, instant restore, read replicas, IP allow lists, logical replication, egress optimization, and Lakebase Search. Use when the work is an existing DATABASE_URL, SQL, schema, inspect, or search. New backends, Auth, files, Functions, and LLM calls go to the parent `neon` skill. Live queries, reactive UIs, and realtime data go to `neon-realtime`. Also use for "@neondatabase/serverless", "@neon/neon-js", "neon inspect db", "neon postgres computes", "Neon branch", "schema-only branch", "reset branch", "branch per PR", high database bills, network transfer or egress, SELECT * optimization, query overfetching, "semantic search", "vector search", "full-text search", "BM25", or "hybrid search".
