Project install by default; add -g for ~/.claude/skills/.

GitHub CLI
$ gh skill install Red-Hat-AI-Innovation-Team/sdg_hub data-generation --agent claude-code

Project scope by default; add --scope user for a personal install. Needs GitHub CLI 2.90.0 or later (public preview).

Manual copy
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Red-Hat-AI-Innovation-Team/sdg_hub.git skills-src && mkdir -p .claude/skills && cp -r skills-src/.claude/skills/data-generation .claude/skills/data-generation && rm -rf skills-src

At a glance

A skill your agent uses when the user wants to run synthetic data generation via scripts — detect environment, execute a flow, and present results.

  • Works in 3 steps: Check Environment → Execute Generation → Present Results
  • The user wants to run synthetic data generation via scripts — detect environment
  • SKILL.md covers Step 1: Check Environment, Step 2: Execute Generation and Step 3: Present Results
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Data Generation is an agent skill from Red-Hat-AI-Innovation-Team/sdg_hub. Use when the user wants to run synthetic data generation via scripts — detect environment, execute a flow, and present results. For detailed guidance on approaches, blocks, flow authoring, and troubleshooting, consult the synthetic-data-generation skill.

Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Test data and fixtures. The repository describes itself as: Synthetic Data Generation Toolkit for LLMs. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to run synthetic data generation via scripts — detect environment
  • Present results

Example prompts

  • “/data-generation”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sdg_generate.sh:*), Bash(${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sdg_detect.sh:*), Bash(${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sdg_flows.sh:*)

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Check Environment
  2. Execute Generation
  3. Present Results

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 31efcbe. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash(${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sdg_generate.sh:*)
    • Bash(${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sdg_detect.sh:*)
    • Bash(${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sdg_flows.sh:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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.

Context cost

Data Generation loads about 381 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 119 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~381

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.

Run Data Generation

Execute synthetic data generation using sdg_hub flows. For approach selection, custom flow authoring, and block reference, consult the synthetic-data-generation skill.

Step 1: Check Environment

"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sdg_detect.sh"
If not ready
  • library=missing or config=missing: invoke the setup-guide skill.
If ready (library=installed, config=found)

Proceed to Step 2.

Step 2: Execute Generation

If the user doesn't specify a flow, invoke the flow-browser skill to find one.

Recommend starting with --sample 2 for a dry run.

"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sdg_generate.sh" $ARGUMENTS

Step 3: Present Results

  1. Generation status — Whether generation completed successfully
  2. Row counts — Input rows processed and output rows generated
  3. Output location — Path to the generated dataset
  4. Errors — If any rows failed, report the count

If generation failed, consult the synthetic-data-generation skill for troubleshooting.
