Use for any task involving Dagster, the dg CLI, assets, materialization, components, data tools or data pipelines, matching the situations the Dagster skill handles. This is the deprecated dagster-expert plugin. It carries no Dagster guidance and exists only to tell the user to move to the dagster plugin.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by dagster-io on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Dagster Expert AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/dagster-io/skills/tree/master/plugins/dagster-expert/skills/dagster-expert
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/dagster-io/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/plugins/dagster-expert/skills/dagster-expert .claude/skills/dagster-expert
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Dagster Expert in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Dagster Expert on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Dagster Expert is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

This plugin has been replaced

The user is running the deprecated dagster-expert plugin. It no longer carries the Dagster skill — that now ships in the dagster plugin.

Do not answer the user's Dagster question from memory. Tell them to run:

/plugin install dagster@dagster

/plugin uninstall dagster-expert

if they are in a Claude code session. If they are in a Cursor session, instruct them to uninstall the current Dagster plugin and re-install it.

Both commands matter. Installing dagster without uninstalling dagster-expert leaves two plugins providing a skill named dagster-expert, and this deprecated one may be chosen instead of the real one. If the user reaches this notice after already installing dagster, that is what has happened — have them uninstall dagster-expert and retry.

Nothing else changes: the skill keeps the name dagster-expert and is still invoked as /dagster-expert.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Dagster Expert AI skill do?

Use for any task involving Dagster, the dg CLI, assets, materialization, components, data tools or data pipelines, matching the situations the Dagster skill handles. This is the deprecated dagster-expert plugin. It carries no Dagster guidance and exists only to tell the user to move to the dagster plugin.

Why use Dagster Expert on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Dagster Expert is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Dagster Expert in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/dagster-io/skills/tree/master/plugins/dagster-expert/skills/dagster-expert. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Dagster Expert?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Dagster Expert?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Dagster Expert with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Dagster Expert AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by dagster-io under the Apache-2.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
