dbt Transformation Patterns

Production-ready patterns for dbt (data build tool) including model organization, testing strategies, documentation, and incremental processing.

Use this skill when

  • Building data transformation pipelines with dbt
  • Organizing models into staging, intermediate, and marts layers
  • Implementing data quality tests and documentation
  • Creating incremental models for large datasets
  • Setting up dbt project structure and conventions

Do not use this skill when

  • The project is not using dbt or a warehouse-backed workflow
  • You only need ad-hoc SQL queries
  • There is no access to source data or schemas

Instructions

  • Define model layers, naming, and ownership.
  • Implement tests, documentation, and freshness checks.
  • Choose materializations and incremental strategies.
  • Optimize runs with selectors and CI workflows.
  • If detailed patterns are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.
