atlan-search
How to find things in the Atlan data catalog with the Atlan MCP tools — which of semantic_search / search_assets / get_assets / traverse_lineage / resolve_metadata / get_users to reach for, and the filter rules that make each one return the right answer. Use for any discovery ask over catalog metadata — "what data do we have about X", "which table has Y", "find verified Snowflake tables owned by Z", "how many dashboards per domain", tags and custom metadata, glossary terms, domains and data products, data quality checks, lineage, BI and pipeline assets, and counts or breakdowns of any of these. Not for querying row-level data values (use query_assets) and not for skills / knowledge files / agents (use read_artifact).
Install

Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/atlanhq/agent-toolkit /tmp/agent-toolkit && ln -s /tmp/agent-toolkit/skills/atlan-search ~/.claude/skills/atlan-search
