# 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`.
