npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill cdc-pattern-implementer --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# CDC Pattern Implementer ## Overview Implements Change Data Capture patterns for real-time data integration. This skill provides expertise in CDC configuration and implementation across various database and streaming platforms. ## Capabilities - Debezium connector configuration - CDC pattern selection (log-based, trigger-based, timestamp-based) - Initial snapshot strategy - Schema change handling - Exactly-once delivery configuration - Sink connector setup - Tombstone handling - CDC monitoring setup ## Input Schema ```json { "sourceDatabase": { "type": "postgres|mysql|oracle|sqlserver", "connection": "object" }, "tables": ["string"], "targetSystem": "kafka|kinesis|pubsub", "requirements": { "latencyMs": "number", "exactlyOnce": "boolean" } } ``` ## Output Schema ```json { "connectorConfig": "object", "snapshotStrategy": "object", "schemaConfig": "object", "monitoringConfig": "object", "documentation": "string" } ``` ## Target Processes - ETL/ELT Pipeline - Streaming Pipeline - Data Warehouse Setup ## Usage Guidelines 1. Identify source database and tables for CDC 2. Define target streaming system 3. Specify latency and delivery guarantees 4. Configure appropriate snapshot strategy

What does the CDC Pattern Implementer skill do?
Implements Change Data Capture patterns for real-time data integration
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill cdc-pattern-implementer --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From a5c-ai/babysitter, a repository with 1,642 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
