What is airflow?

Queries, manages, and troubleshoots Apache Airflow using the `af` CLI. Use when working with anything related to Airflow - a DAG, a DAG run, a task log, an import or parse error, a broken DAG, or any Airflow operation. Covers listing and triggering DAGs, retrying runs, reading task logs, diagnosing failures, debugging import and parse errors, checking connections, variables and pools, exploring the REST API, and monitoring health (for example "trigger a pipeline", "retry a run", "list connections", "check Airflow health", "why did my DAG fail"). This is the entrypoint that routes to sibling skills for authoring, testing, deploying, and migrating Airflow 2 to 3. Not for warehouse/SQL analytics on Airflow metadata tables (use analyzing-data); for deep root-cause reports use debugging-dags or airflow-investigation.

Airflow Operations

Use af commands to query, manage, and troubleshoot Airflow workflows.

Astro CLI

The Astro CLI is the recommended way to run Airflow locally and deploy to production. It provides a containerized Airflow environment that works out of the box:

# Initialize a new project
astro dev init

# Start local Airflow (webserver at http://localhost:8080)
astro dev start

# Parse DAGs to catch errors quickly (no need to start Airflow)
