Use when designing or debugging Kong DataKit plugin flows, including node selection, DAG wiring, jq transforms, cache or vault usage, and phase-specific request or response orchestration. Do not use for generic decK, Terraform, or Konnect workflow questions.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/Kong/ai-marketplace /tmp/ai-marketplace && ln -s /tmp/ai-marketplace/plugins/kong-konnect/skills/gateway-plugin-datakit ~/.claude/skills/gateway-plugin-datakit
```

## From README

Goal Help the agent turn an orchestration request into a correct DataKit flow, or debug an existing flow, without drifting into generic Gateway or declarative tool guidance. Own DataKit reasoning: phase choice, node selection, DAG structure, connection shape, cache or vault requirements, and debug strategy. Tool Selection Prefer working from the artifact that already owns the flow: If the repo already contains DataKit YAML under deck, kong.yaml, or other declarative config, edit that artifact in place. If the request depends on current Konnect state and kong-konnect MCP is available, use it to inspect the attached plugin instance and confirm whether the problem is in the saved config or only in the repo copy. If the request is only about DataKit flow behavior, stay in this skill. Hand off only when the work becomes mainly about decK, kongctl, or Terraform packaging.
