Bloblang Authoring
Skill Verified ActiveThis skill should be used when users need to create or debug Bloblang transformation scripts. Trigger when users ask about transforming data, mapping fields, parsing JSON/CSV/XML, converting timestamps, filtering arrays, or mention "bloblang", "blobl", "mapping processor", or describe any data transformation need like "convert this to that" or "transform my JSON".
To empower users to easily create and validate complex Bloblang data transformation scripts by providing a guided workflow and comprehensive reference materials.
Features
- Generate Bloblang scripts from natural language descriptions
- Provide categorized XML reference files for Bloblang functions and methods
- Test Bloblang scripts against sample data
- Explain Bloblang core concepts, control flow, and error handling
Use Cases
- Transforming JSON, CSV, or XML data with Bloblang
- Mapping fields between different data structures
- Converting timestamps and other data types
- Filtering arrays and objects using Bloblang logic
Non-Goals
- Executing Redpanda Connect pipelines
- Interacting directly with Redpanda brokers
- Providing a full Bloblang IDE

Chdb Sql
98In-process ClickHouse SQL engine for Python — run ClickHouse SQL queries directly on local files, remote databases, and cloud storage without a server. Use when the user wants to write SQL queries against Parquet/CSV/ JSON files, use ClickHouse table functions (mysql(), s3(), postgresql(), iceberg(), deltaLake() etc.), build stateful analytical pipelines with Session, use parametrized queries, window functions, or other advanced ClickHouse SQL features. Also use when the user explicitly mentions chdb.query(), ClickHouse SQL syntax, or wants cross-source SQL joins. Do NOT use for pandas-style DataFrame operations — use chdb-datastore instead.
Serialize Data Formats
97Serialize and deserialize data across common formats including JSON, XML, YAML, Protocol Buffers, MessagePack, and Apache Arrow/Parquet. Covers format selection criteria, encoding/decoding patterns, performance trade-offs, and interoperability considerations. Use when choosing a wire format for API communication, persisting structured data to disk, exchanging data between systems written in different languages, optimizing transfer size or parsing speed, or migrating from one serialization format to another.
XLSX Skill
96Use this skill any time a spreadsheet file is the primary input or output. This means any task where the user wants to: open, read, edit, or fix an existing .xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, or .tsv file (e.g., adding columns, computing formulas, formatting, charting, cleaning messy data); create a new spreadsheet from scratch or from other data sources; or convert between tabular file formats. Trigger especially when the user references a spreadsheet file by name or path — even casually (like "the xlsx in my downloads") — and wants something done to it or produced from it. Also trigger for cleaning or restructuring messy tabular data files (malformed rows, misplaced headers, junk data) into proper spreadsheets. The deliverable must be a spreadsheet file. Do NOT trigger when the primary deliverable is a Word document, HTML report, standalone Python script, database pipeline, or Google Sheets API integration, even if tabular data is involved.
Spreadsheet Generation API
100Generate CSV, Markdown, and XLSX spreadsheets from structured tabular data.
Geofeed Tuner
100Use this skill whenever the user mentions IP geolocation feeds, RFC 8805, geofeeds, or wants help creating, tuning, validating, or publishing a self-published IP geolocation feed in CSV format. Intended user audience is a network operator, ISP, mobile carrier, cloud provider, hosting company, IXP, or satellite provider asking about IP geolocation accuracy, or geofeed authoring best practices. Helps create, refine, and improve CSV-format IP geolocation feeds with opinionated recommendations beyond RFC 8805 compliance. Do NOT use for private or internal IP address management — applies only to publicly routable IP addresses.
Website Extraction Api
100Extract typed JSON from public website pages using a schema.
