Agent Skills for Databricks

Skills that extend Databricks Assistant (or other coding agents like Claude Code) with Databricks-specific features or workflows.

Skills

Skill	Slash Command	Description
genie-space-diagnostics	/genie-space-diagnostics	Audit Genie Space configuration against best practices with prioritized remediation plan
genie-space-optimizer	/genie-space-optimizer	Benchmark-driven iterative optimization of Genie Space accuracy using the Benchmark API
multi-agent-architecture	/multi-agent-architecture	Design multi-agent architectures for PoC/hackathon/MVP projects with Excalidraw diagrams
parse-documents	—	Parse and chunk documents for ingestion

Setup

Claude Code

Use manage-skills.sh to symlink skills into any project's .claude/skills/ directory. Skills are auto-triggered by Claude when relevant to the conversation.

git clone https://github.com/hiydavid/databricks-agent-skills.git
cd databricks-agent-skills

# List available skills
./scripts/manage-skills.sh list

# Add all skills to a project
./scripts/manage-skills.sh add --all --to ~/my-project

# Add a single skill
./scripts/manage-skills.sh add multi-agent-architecture --to ~/my-project

# Check what's installed
./scripts/manage-skills.sh status --in ~/my-project

# Remove a skill
./scripts/manage-skills.sh remove multi-agent-architecture --from ~/my-project

If --to/--from/--in is omitted, it defaults to the current working directory.

Databricks Assistant

Copy the desired skill folder into your workspace skills directory:

/Users/{username}/.assistant/skills/
└── {skill-name}/
    ├── SKILL.md
    ├── scripts/
    └── references/

The Assistant automatically discovers skills in agent mode. See the Databricks docs for details.

Adding a new skill

1. Create the skill folder: mkdir -p my-skill
2. Add my-skill/SKILL.md with instructions and references
3. Add a slash command: create commands/my-skill.md with frontmatter (description, argument-hint) that loads the SKILL.md
4. Install and test: ./scripts/manage-skills.sh add my-skill --to ~/my-project

Testing skills

1. Add skills to a test project: ./scripts/manage-skills.sh add --all --to ~/my-project
2. Start a new Claude Code session in that project
3. Invoke via slash command (e.g., /multi-agent-architecture) or trigger naturally
4. Edit the skill files, start a new session, and re-test (symlinks pick up changes automatically)

Contributing

1. Clone the repo and create a branch
2. Follow the "Adding a new skill" steps above
3. Test locally, then open a PR
