Build something that is not there yet
Snapshot the opportunity pipeline daily and measure stage conversion and slippage
- When pipeline coverage changes every time someone re-runs the CRM report because history isn't kept.
- When a deal's close date keeps moving out and nobody can show the pattern without a daily snapshot.
Build a daily append-only snapshot of the opportunity pipeline and derive stage-to-stage conversion, coverage against quota, and slipped-deal detection from it. Covers the snapshot and its derived measures, not the CRM's own reporting layer.
Sample This Recipe has not been materialized in the Cookbook repository yet. Its trigger, description, prompt, agent guidance and acceptance conditions, and the explanation below, are prototype drafts. Its name, job, area and readiness come from the reconciled Cookbook seed snapshot. Readiness is a separate question from this one: it says whether the capability exists, not whether the writing has been reviewed.

What has to be observably true before this Recipe is finished.
- every calendar day in scope has a complete snapshot with no gaps
- a historical coverage-against-quota figure reproduces the number reported on that date
- a deal whose close date moved out is flagged as slipped under the agreed definition
- the snapshot is never rewritten to match the CRM's current view of a past date
Recipe promptThe task specification the agent reads. Reference only — it is not what you copy.
Deliver: Snapshot the opportunity pipeline daily and measure stage conversion and slippage. Build a daily append-only snapshot of the opportunity pipeline and derive stage-to-stage conversion, coverage against quota, and slipped-deal detection from it. Covers the snapshot and its derived measures, not the CRM's own reporting layer. Execute inside the current Intent. Its Domain, repository, platform, environment and attached sources are the context for this work — read them rather than asking for them. The work is done when: - every calendar day in scope has a complete snapshot with no gaps - a historical coverage-against-quota figure reproduces the number reported on that date - a deal whose close date moved out is flagged as slipped under the agreed definition - the snapshot is never rewritten to match the CRM's current view of a past date Report the evidence for each condition above with the result. A condition you cannot meet is something to say, not something to work around.
Agent guidanceHow the agent approaches the work, and what it will not do.
Profile the inputs the grain, joins and measures actually depend on before proposing a model. Put the design up for review — grain first — then build in an isolated copy with tests and documentation landing beside the model rather than after it.
Composes
- dbt model authoring and layering
- dbt in the project
- dlt in the project
- isolated-copy execution and gate verification
Asks first
Semantic decisions the Intent cannot supply. Never context Studio already holds.
- which Fabric target this work lands on, when the Domain carries both a Lakehouse and a Warehouse
- the grain the requester expects, where the request leaves it open to more than one reading
Guardrails
- Build in an isolated copy. Production is read, never written.
What you need
- Microsoft Fabric Lakehouse, Microsoft Fabric Warehouse, MotherDuck, or DuckDB.
- A dbt project you can build, and read access to the models it starts from.
- dbt and dlt in the project, or the intent to add it.
- Needs the definition of a slipped deal agreed up front.
How it goes
- State the outcome in one sentence, in the language the request arrived in.
- Let it profile the inputs the grain, the joins and the measures actually depend on.
- Review the design. Disagreeing about grain here costs a sentence; after the model exists it costs a rewrite.
- Let it build in an isolated copy, with the tests and the documentation landing beside the model rather than after it.
- Read the acceptance conditions against the run.
What you end up with
The deliverable, in your own repository, as transformation work a reviewer who knows the project reads as native to it. Alongside it, the evidence for every one of the acceptance conditions above — which is the part that is still there in three weeks when somebody asks.
