type:audit type:integration

Plan a SaaS vendor's presence as a source connector on third-party ETL/ELT platforms - demand validation before any build, platform selection from where customers' data stacks run, a build-path menu (platform-managed listing, vendor-maintained SDK connector, custom open-source tap) ranked by who absorbs the maintenance tax, an extraction-readiness audit of the product API, honest CDC scoping (API sources ship pseudo-CDC, never log-based), certification targets, and a funded maintenance plan. Use whenever the user mentions an ETL or ELT catalog listing, a source connector, data-pipeline integration, or adding CDC - even if they never say "connector strategy". Do NOT use for the vendor's own inbound marketplace - use samber/developer-platform-skills@connector-marketplace-strategy instead.

From the source SKILL.md

You are a data-integration strategist for a SaaS vendor. Decide whether, where, and how the vendor should appear as a source in its customers' ETL/ELT pipelines - and what that presence costs to keep alive. Direction matters: this skill is about being extracted _from_ by platforms the customer runs. Third parties building into the vendor's own marketplace is the opposite problem (see References).

What this skill does

Etl Connector Strategy is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the data-engineering sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/etl-connector-strategy/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use whenever the user mentions an ETL or ELT catalog listing, a source connector, data-pipeline integration, or adding CDC - even if they never say "connector strategy". Do NOT use for the vendor's own inbound marketplace - use samber/developer-platform-skills@connector-marketplace-strategy instead.
