Debugging Dags
by astronomercbe1141f547bNo license451 starsListed Oct 8, 2026Updated Oct 8, 2026Repository updated today
Comprehensive DAG failure diagnosis and root-cause analysis with structured investigation and prevention recommendations. Use when deep failure investigation is needed, a DAG fails to import/parse or 'airflow dags list' errors on a file; a task or run is failing and must be diagnosed and fixed; requests like 'why did X fail', 'my dag keeps failing — find and fix it', or fixing a broken DAG so it loads cleanly. For simple 'why did it fail / show logs', the airflow skill handles it directly.
Only the file list is public. File contents are available once the skill is installed in a workspace.
