Select and apply the correct SQL connector implementation pattern (SDK-default minimal or source-specific custom). Use when building or extending SQL metadata/query extraction connectors.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/atlanhq/atlan-sample-apps /tmp/atlan-sample-apps && ln -s /tmp/atlan-sample-apps/.claude/skills/atlan-sql-connector-patterns ~/.claude/skills/atlan-sql-connector-patterns
```

## From README

Atlan SQL Connector Patterns Choose the right connector strategy and implement it consistently. Workflow Use references/decision-tree.md to choose postgres-minimal or redshift-custom. Implement required components for selected path. Verify auth, preflight, workflow map, and transformation behavior against references. Run atlan-fact-verification-gate if requirements imply source-specific behavior or SDK override risk. Hand off to atlan-e2e-contract-validator for contract generation. Rules Default to minimal path unless requirements justify custom path. For custom path, explicitly document why SDK defaults are insufficient. Reuse source-specific patterns only when corresponding requirements are present. References Decision tree: references/decision-tree.md Shared verification map: ../shared/references/verification-sources.md
