When your agent uses it

  • Other skills do not cover a topic
  • Looking up unfamiliar Databricks features
  • Needing authoritative docs on APIs
  • Platform capabilities

Example prompts

  • “Use the databricks-docs skill to databrick documentation reference via llms.txt index. An agent skill from databricks/databricks-agent-skills”
  • “/databricks-docs”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires databricks CLI (>= v1.0.0)

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Search for relevant sections/links
  2. Fetch specific documentation pages for detailed guidance
  3. Apply what you learn using the appropriate CLI commands or SDK

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f4fcec5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • databricks

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • docs.databricks.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Requires databricks CLI (>= v1.0.0)

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Databricks Docs loads about 721 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 297 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~60
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~721

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 297 words (~721 tokens).
