Cdc Streaming Pipeline
Build a real-time change-data-capture pipeline from a transactional database (Aurora DSQL, Aurora Postgres, RDS) to Redshift Serverless, S3, or any other sink, via Kinesis Data Streams (or MSK). Covers producer setup, consumer Lambda correctness, the append-only event log + reconstruction pattern, schema-drift handling with SUPER + JSON_PARSE, and the operational gotchas (Redshift Data API parameter caps, async statement polling, poison-record handling, retry-and-bisect). Use when the user asks for "CDC to Redshift", "stream change data capture", "Aurora CDC", "DSQL CDC", "Postgres replication to S3", or "build a Lambda consumer for Kinesis CDC". Aurora DSQL public-preview specifics are flagged; the rest is source-agnostic.

From the source SKILL.md
This skill captures the lived patterns for building a real-time CDC pipeline: a transactional source publishes change events to Kinesis, a Lambda consumer applies them to a sink (Redshift Serverless event log, or S3 / Iceberg via Firehose). It is source-agnostic: the producer-side notes are split into "any CDC source" and "Aurora DSQL preview" callouts.
What this skill does
Cdc Streaming Pipeline is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the devops sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/cdc-streaming-pipeline/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when the user asks for "CDC to Redshift", "stream change data capture", "Aurora CDC", "DSQL CDC", "Postgres replication to S3", or "build a Lambda consumer for Kinesis CDC". Aurora DSQL public-preview specifics are flagged; the rest is source-agnostic.
Who uses this skill
The Cdc Streaming Pipeline Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 158,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

When should I use the Cdc Streaming Pipeline skill?
Use Cdc Streaming Pipeline when your Claude Code task falls under the Engineering category — specifically in the devops area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Cdc Streaming Pipeline" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at
/category/engineering/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Cdc Streaming Pipeline skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a
SKILL.md file that lives under
~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Cdc Streaming Pipeline is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category. Learn more at
