Overview
What It Does
Datalineage Summary packages a focused devops & cloud workflow for an AI agent. Summarizes Google Cloud Data Lineage graphs to help users debug data quality issues and understand data provenance for BQ/GCS. Use when summarizing upstream and downstream data flows, and presenting complex lineage data as an intuitive Markdown report. Don't use for generic BigQuery queries, editing lineage relationships, or downstream deprecation. Don't use for downstream blast-radius impact analysis (use datalineage-bigquery-asset-impact-analysis skill instead). It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
