skill-paths
dbt_project.yml
skill-paths: [directorypath]
Definition
Optionally specify a custom list of directories where agent skills are located.
Every subdirectory containing a SKILL.md file is treated as one skill. dbt scans skill-paths in your root project and in each installed package when it installs packages.
Default
By default, dbt looks for skills in a directory named skills in the root of your project.
skill-paths must be relative to the location of your dbt_project.yml file. Avoid using absolute paths like /Users/username/project/skills, as it will lead to unexpected behavior and outcomes.
