What problem does it solve?
Builders waste hours context-switching between the IDE, warehouse consoles, notebooks, and Airflow when an agent could not safely orchestrate data-engineering tasks in one place.
Who is it for?
Solo builders and small teams shipping data products who already use or plan to use Airflow, Snowflake, or BigQuery and want agent tooling aligned with Astronomer.
Skip if: Pure frontend-only products with no warehouse, ETL, or orchestration needs.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After installing the marketplace, your agent can use Astronomer’s data-engineering plugin to explore warehouses and author pipelines with Airflow-aware workflows.
- astronomer-data plugin enabled from the Astronomer-owned marketplace
- Agent-oriented workflows for exploration, pipeline authoring, and Airflow integration
Plugins in this marketplace
1 plugin — install individually after you add the marketplace.
Recommended Marketplaces
Journey fit
The astronomer-data plugin is explicitly data-engineering work—warehouses, pipelines, and Airflow—which happens while you are building product integrations and backend data paths. Integrations fits because the value is hooking agents to Snowflake, BigQuery, Jupyter, and Airflow rather than polishing UI or running production monitoring alone.
How it compares
Vendor data-engineering agent plugin, not a generic SQL tutor skill or a standalone Airflow deployment tool.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Astronomer marketplace for?
Developers and indie data engineers who want their coding agent to help with warehouse exploration, pipeline authoring, and Airflow-related work under the Astronomer ecosystem.
When should I use Astronomer?
Use it during Build when you are wiring analytics backends, ETL, or orchestration and want marketplace-delivered agent skills instead of ad-hoc prompts for Snowflake, BigQuery, and Jupyter.
How do I add Astronomer to my agent?
Add the Astronomer marketplace from the catalog, enable the Astronomer-data plugin, and ensure your environment can reach the data platforms and repos you use (see github.com/Astronomer/agents for setup details).
