Questions about databricks-unity-gateway
What does the databricks-unity-gateway skill do?
Use when querying or calling pay-per-token foundation models, or when creating, updating, listing, or querying Unity Gateway (also called Unity AI Gateway) services, including model provider services, MCP services, system.ai services, and three-part Unity Catalog service names (catalog.schema.service). Also use for managing spend budgets and usage alerts on Unity Gateway, and for migrating from legacy AI Gateway. Also use when a workload with Model Serving endpoint permissions (for example CAN_QUERY) gets PERMISSION_DENIED querying a three-part model name, since serving-endpoint access does not grant access to a Unity Gateway service. Not for configuring legacy AI Gateway on Model Serving endpoints; use databricks-model-serving for that.
How do I install databricks-unity-gateway?
In a terminal: npx skills add databricks/databricks-agent-skills --skill databricks-unity-gateway. 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 databricks-unity-gateway?
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 databricks-unity-gateway 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.
Which tool is databricks-unity-gateway for?
databricks-unity-gateway comes from the makers of Databricks and helps your agent work with it.

NOT for: endpoint ops (databricks-model-serving), MLflow evaluation (databricks-mlflow-evaluation).
Unity Catalog metric views: define, create, query, and manage governed business metrics in YAML. Use when building standardized KPIs, revenue metrics, order analytics, or any reusable business metrics that need consistent definitions across teams and tools.
Migrate Databricks workloads from classic compute to serverless compute. Use when migrating notebooks, jobs, pipelines, or Scala JARs (`spark_jar_task`) from classic clusters to serverless, checking if existing code is serverless-compatible, or writing new serverless-compatible code. Provides concrete fixes for the serverless Spark Connect architecture and guides the full migration. Not for classic DBR version upgrades or cluster configuration changes within classic compute.
