95 / 100 · Low risk

Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Safely backfill historical data for a pipeline stage — scope the date range, run a dry-run, execute in chunks to avoid overwhelming the database, and verify row counts after each chunk. Use when historical data is missing, when a pipeline stage is added retroactively, or when asked to "backfill the {stage} table from {start_date}".

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'backfill-runbook' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'backfill-runbook' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named backfill-runbook already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/zakelfassi/skills-driven-development' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'c0574d7b32ff213b55d2390656153887741dfaf4' -- 'examples/data-pipeline/skills/backfill-runbook' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'examples/data-pipeline/skills/backfill-runbook' ~/.agents/skills/'backfill-runbook' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'backfill-runbook' ~/.claude/skills/'backfill-runbook' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
