Converts dbt Core projects into Airflow DAGs or TaskGroups using Astronomer Cosmos. The skill walks you through the config stack: project location, parsing strategy (manifest vs dbt_ls), execution mode (local, Kubernetes, virtualenv, or the faster watcher modes), warehouse connection via ProfileConfig, and test behavior. It targets Cosmos 1.11+ and Airflow 3.x but includes Airflow 2.x compatibility notes. The checklist format is helpful because Cosmos has a lot of knobs to turn, and picking the wrong load mode or execution mode will either break your setup or make it unnecessarily slow. Use this when you need dbt running inside Airflow with proper task granularity, not when you're using dbt Fusion.
