# troubleshooting-astro-deployments A skill that walks the agent through diagnosing Astronomer production deployments with the Astro CLI: logs, errors, environment variables. - skill · `type=skill` · Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode · 622 installs · ★ 456 - Author: astronomer - License: Apache-2.0 · policy=mirror · the beginning of the file is at the end of this page - Source: https://github.com/astronomer/agents/tree/HEAD/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments/SKILL.md - Updated: 2026-10-14 - HTML: https://affpapa.org/en/nevibecode/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments ## What it does The skill lays out an order for investigating problems on Astronomer production deployments. The agent starts with `astro deployment list` and `astro deployment inspect `, then reads the error logs. From there it moves through components: scheduler, workers, webserver, triggerer. Logs can be filtered by level (`--error`, `--warn`, `--info`) or by keyword. One catch: component and level flags do not combine in a single command, so you pick one per run. Entry count comes from `-c`, default 500. A separate section covers environment variables — list, create, update, delete via `astro deployment variable`. Secrets are made with `--secret` and get masked in the UI and logs. Variable changes need no redeployment. Everything here assumes the Astro CLI is installed; without it the steps have nothing to run on. ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add astronomer/agents --skill troubleshooting-astro-deployments -a claude-code ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `~/.claude/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments/ ### Codex 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add astronomer/agents --skill troubleshooting-astro-deployments -a codex ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.agents/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/ ### Cursor 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add astronomer/agents --skill troubleshooting-astro-deployments -a cursor ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.cursor/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/ ### GitHub Copilot 1. **GitHub CLI** ```bash gh skill install astronomer/agents troubleshooting-astro-deployments ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.github/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments/SKILL.md` ### Gemini CLI 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add astronomer/agents --skill troubleshooting-astro-deployments -a gemini-cli ``` 2. **Platform CLI** ```bash gemini skills install https://github.com/astronomer/agents --path skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments ``` ### Windsurf (Devin Desktop) **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.devin/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works ### OpenCode **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add astronomer/agents --skill troubleshooting-astro-deployments -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/astronomer/agents/tree/HEAD/skills/troubleshooting-astro-deployments/SKILL.md ## When to use it - find which DAG keeps failing - filter import errors out of scheduler logs - check whether workers are running out of memory or CPU - see which environment variables a deployment carries - create a secret that stays masked in logs ## Example prompts - check the error logs on my Astronomer production deployment - search scheduler logs for DAG import failures - list the environment variables for this deployment ## Source text · SKILL.md · Apache-2.0 Below is the content of a third-party file.

BEGIN THIRD-PARTY FILE 9bce94d037bd0f64 ````text --- name: troubleshooting-astro-deployments description: Troubleshoot Astronomer production deployments with Astro CLI. Use when investigating deployment issues, viewing production logs, analyzing failures, or managing deployment environment variables. --- # Astro Deployment Troubleshooting This skill helps you diagnose and troubleshoot production Astronomer deployments using the Astro CLI. > **For deployment management**, see the **managing-astro-deployments** skill. > **For local development**, see the **managing-astro-local-env** skill. --- ## Quick Health Check Start with these commands to get an overview: ```bash # 1. List deployments to find target astro deployment list # 2. Get deployment overview astro deployment inspect # 3. Check for errors astro deployment logs --error -c 50 ``` --- ## Viewing Deployment Logs Use `-c` to control log count (default: 500). Log flags cannot be combined — use one component or level flag per command. ### Component-Specific Logs View logs from specific Airflow components: ```bash # Scheduler logs (DAG processing, task scheduling) astro deployment logs --scheduler -c 50 # Worker logs (task execution) astro deployment logs --workers -c 30 # Webserver logs (UI access, health checks) astro deployment logs --webserver -c 30 # Triggerer logs (deferrable operators) astro deployment logs --triggerer -c 30 ``` ### Log Level Filtering Filter by severity: ```bash # Error logs only (most useful for troubleshooting) astro deployment logs --error -c 30 # Warning logs astro deployment logs --warn -c 50 # Info-level logs astro deployment logs --info -c 50 ``` ### Search Logs Search for specific keywords: ```bash # Search for specific error astro deployment logs --keyword "ConnectionError" # Search for specific DAG astro deployment logs --keyword "my_dag_name" -c 100 # Find import errors astro deployment logs --error --keyword "ImportError" # Find task failures astro deployment logs --error --keyword "Task failed" ``` --- ## Complete Investigation Workflow ### Step 1: Identify the Problem ```bash # List deployments with status astro deployment list # Get deployment details astro deployment inspect ``` Look for: - Status: HEALTHY vs UNHEALTHY - Runtime version compatibility - Resource limits (CPU, memory) - Recent deployment timestamp ### Step 2: Check Error Logs ```bash # Start with errors astro deployment logs --error -c 50 ``` Look for: - Recurring error patterns ```` END THIRD-PARTY FILE 9bce94d037bd0f64 The third-party file has ended.
