databricks-app-design

Design the UX of custom-code Databricks Apps (AppKit/React) data screens — KPI/overview pages, reports, charts, tables, and Genie/chat data assistants — mapped to concrete AppKit components. Use when BUILDING or reviewing the UI of an AppKit/React app that displays data or answers data questions: choosing genre, layout, charts, KPIs, semantic color, required states (loading/empty/error), IBCS notation, and AI-result trust (showing generated SQL/sources for Genie/chat). A plain "create a dashboard" request means a managed AI/BI (Lakeview) dashboard → use databricks-aibi-dashboards, NOT this skill. Also NOT for non-data frontend (forms, settings, auth, marketing) or scaffolding/build/deploy (→ databricks-apps). Complements databricks-apps; use it alongside whenever a custom app has a chart, table, KPI, report, or Genie/chat/AI surface.

databricks-synthetic-data-genGenerate realistic synthetic data using Spark + Faker (strongly recommended). Supports serverless execution, multiple output formats (Parquet/JSON/CSV/Delta), and scales from thousands to millions of rows. For small datasets (<10K rows), can optionally generate locally and upload to volumes. Use when user mentions 'synthetic data', 'test data', 'generate data', 'demo dataset', 'Faker', or 'sample data'.0 installs databricks-coreDatabricks CLI operations and the parent/entry-point skill for Databricks CLI use: authentication, profile selection, and bundles. Load this first for CLI, auth, profile, and bundle tasks, then load the matching product skill. For finding or exploring data, answering questions about the data, or generating SQL, load the databricks-data-discovery skill (it routes to Genie One). Contains up-to-date guidelines for Databricks-related CLI tasks.0 installs databricks-zerobus-ingestBuild Zerobus Ingest clients for near real-time data ingestion into Databricks Delta tables via gRPC. Use when creating producers that write directly to Unity Catalog tables without a message bus, working with the Zerobus Ingest SDK in Python/Java/Go/TypeScript/Rust, generating Protobuf schemas from UC tables, or implementing stream-based ingestion with ACK handling and retry logic.0 installs databricks-ai-runtimeDatabricks AI Runtime (`air`) CLI — the command-line tool for submitting and managing GPU training workloads on Databricks serverless compute. Use for: running `air` workloads, custom Docker image setup, environment configuration, and troubleshooting `air` jobs.0 installs databricks-ai-functionsUse Databricks built-in AI Functions (ai_classify, ai_extract, ai_summarize, ai_mask, ai_translate, ai_fix_grammar, ai_gen, ai_analyze_sentiment, ai_similarity, ai_parse_document, ai_prep_search, ai_query, ai_forecast) to add AI capabilities directly to SQL and PySpark pipelines without managing model endpoints. Also covers document parsing and building custom RAG pipelines (parse → prep_search → index → query).0 installs databricks-dbsqlDatabricks SQL (DBSQL) advanced features and SQL warehouse capabilities. This skill MUST be invoked when the user mentions: "DBSQL", "Databricks SQL", "SQL warehouse", "SQL scripting", "stored procedure", "CALL procedure", "materialized view", "CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW", "pipe syntax", "|>", "geospatial", "H3", "ST_", "spatial SQL", "collation", "COLLATE", "ai_query", "ai_classify", "ai_extract", "ai_gen", "AI function", "http_request", "remote_query", "read_files", "Lakehouse Federation", "recursive CTE", "WITH RECURSIVE", "multi-statement transaction", "temp table", "temporary view", "pipe operator". SHOULD also invoke when the user asks about SQL best practices, data modeling patterns, or advanced SQL features on Databricks.0 installs
