## What it does

The skill owns the reporting layer: PM and ops KPI boards, product funnels, marketing and GTM reporting, live-ops telemetry. It asks you to pick one primary packet first — `dashboard-spec`, `slow-dashboard`, `refresh-shape`, `audience-split` or `exec-handoff` — then works inside that frame instead of handing back a chart buffet.

Five steps run the flow: normalise the request into a packet, answer what review ritual and source of truth the dashboard serves, shape pages with charts mapped to questions, return a delivery brief, and route adjacent work out honestly. Support docs cover intake packets, modeling, refresh and cost, plus a dashboard delivery checklist.

It assumes BigQuery already exists or can be reasoned about, so this is not a GCP bootstrap skill. If the request still leans on raw fact tables, unstable joins or fuzzy metric definitions, push the modeling upstream before polishing anything. KPI explanation goes to `data-analysis`, repeated anomaly hunting to `pattern-detection`, telemetry and alerting to `monitoring-observability`, and platform choice to `survey`.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add akillness/jeo-skills --skill looker-studio-bigquery -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/looker-studio-bigquery/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/looker-studio-bigquery/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add akillness/jeo-skills --skill looker-studio-bigquery -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/looker-studio-bigquery/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add akillness/jeo-skills --skill looker-studio-bigquery -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/looker-studio-bigquery/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install akillness/jeo-skills looker-studio-bigquery
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**

```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/akillness/jeo-skills --path .agent-skills/looker-studio-bigquery
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/looker-studio-bigquery/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add akillness/jeo-skills --skill looker-studio-bigquery -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/akillness/jeo-skills/tree/HEAD/.agent-skills/looker-studio-bigquery/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- build a leadership KPI board on BigQuery data
- triage a Looker Studio dashboard that is slow or expensive
- choose between live, scheduled and snapshot refresh for a real review cadence
- split one overloaded report into audience-specific artifacts
- prepare a thin dashboard plus an export handoff for commentary

## Example prompts
- Build a dashboard-spec for the weekly KPI review on our BigQuery tables
- This dashboard is slow — run slow-dashboard triage and give me the shortest-path fix
- Help me pick a refresh-shape for a daily review and draft the exec-handoff

# Looker Studio + BigQuery

Use this skill when the real deliverable is **one trustworthy stakeholder-reporting packet on top of BigQuery**.

`looker-studio-bigquery` owns the reporting layer for:
- PM / ops KPI review boards
- product funnel, retention, and rollout dashboards already modeled in BigQuery
- marketing / GTM channel and revenue reporting
- game / live-ops / business telemetry review boards
- refresh, cost, audience, and export-handoff decisions for Looker Studio on curated data

Read these support docs first when needed:
- [references/intake-packets-and-route-outs.md](references/intake-packets-and-route-outs.md)
- [references/modeling-refresh-and-cost.md](references/modeling-refresh-and-cost.md)
- [references/dashboard-delivery-checklist.md](references/dashboard-delivery-checklist.md)
- [references/modes-and-routing.md](references/modes-and-routing.md)

## When to use this skill
- The user explicitly wants **Looker Studio / Data Studio + BigQuery** help.
- The data already lives in BigQuery, or the dashboard clearly sits on curated BigQuery tables/views.
- The main job is dashboard structure, refresh/cost shape, audience-specific delivery, or export-ready reporting.
