Meta-skill loaded at session start. Directs Claude to check for applicable OpenMetadata skills before starting any task. Ensures structured workflows are followed.
This skill is loaded automatically at session start. It ensures you follow the right workflow for every task.
Check which skills apply to your task and use them. This is not optional — if a skill applies, you must follow it.
| Task type | Required skill(s) |
|---|---|
| New feature (multi-file) | /planning then /tdd then /test-enforcement then /verification |
| Bug fix | /systematic-debugging then /tdd (write regression test) then /verification |
| New API endpoint | /planning then /tdd then /test-enforcement (must include integration test) |
| New connector | /connector-standards then /connector-building then /test-enforcement |
| UI component | /tdd then /test-enforcement (must include Jest + Playwright if user-facing) |
| Code review / PR review | /code-review then /test-enforcement |
| Connector review | /connector-review |
| E2E test creation | /playwright |
| Finishing implementation | /test-enforcement then /verification |
Note: Connector skills (
/connector-standards,/connector-building,/connector-review) and/playwrightare part of the OpenMetadata Skills plugin and ship together with this workflow skill. They are defined in theskills/directory alongside this file.
Plan before coding. For any non-trivial task, use /planning to design the approach before writing code.
Test-first when possible. Use /tdd to write failing tests before implementation. This applies to Java, Python, and TypeScript equally.
Always enforce test coverage. Before any PR, use /test-enforcement to verify:
Verify with evidence. Use /verification before claiming completion. Show actual test output, not claims.
Review before merging. Use /code-review for two-stage review (spec compliance + code quality).
When your task touches multiple layers, ensure all are synchronized:

Skills are supplementary workflows, not overrides.
