Arab Open Data

When To Use

Use this skill for open-data work in Arab/MENA contexts, especially when the prompt includes: open data, CKAN, Socrata, SPARQL, data portal, government datasets.

When Not To Use

  • Do not assume data is current or licensed for commercial use.
  • Do not scrape private portals.

Required Inputs

  • Country or market.
  • Target vendor, if already selected.
  • Desired workflow: vendor selection, implementation, review/debugging, launch readiness, or source research.
  • Sandbox vs production state.
  • Whether live customer, payment, tax, identity, bank, or payroll data is involved.

Common Workflows

  • Identify country, portal, dataset, API type, and license needs.
  • Prefer official government portals and machine-readable APIs.
  • Check dataset freshness and schema drift.
  • Return reproducible fetch commands and cache guidance.

Default Workflow

  1. Read sources.yml to see available vendors and confidence.
  2. If a vendor is named, read only vendors/<vendor-id>.md for that vendor.
  3. If choosing vendors, compare only vendors in this skill's registry: bahrain-open-data-portal, morocco-open-data, oman-data-portal, qatar-open-data, qatar-open-data-api, saudi-open-data-portal, tunisia-open-data, uae-bayanat.
  4. Load references/integration-checklist.md only for implementation, review, or launch-readiness work.
  5. Use scripts/list-vendors.mjs for a deterministic vendor list when needed.
  6. Answer with source-backed facts, explicit unknowns, and validation steps.

Decision Tree

  • Named vendor: read that vendor file, then answer narrowly.
  • Vendor selection: filter by country, docs access, maturity, and source quality before recommending.
  • Implementation: include auth, sandbox, webhook/callback, retries, idempotency, logging, and error handling only where source-backed.
  • Review/debugging: compare the user's plan or code against the vendor file, sources.yml, and references/integration-checklist.md.
  • Source research: update facts only when an official source, developer portal, GitHub repo, OpenAPI/Postman asset, or government source supports the claim.
  • Missing docs: say Needs vendor access or Unknown from public docs.

Response Contract

  • Start by naming the skill file and vendor/reference files used.
  • Give a short recommendation or implementation path before details.
  • Separate source-backed facts from assumptions and unknowns.
  • Include country/market fit, docs access, docs confidence, and source-quality caveats when selecting vendors.
  • Include a validation checklist with sandbox/test steps, rollback or retry notes, and manual approval gates for high-risk work.
  • Never provide live-action instructions that move money, tax documents, bank data, identity data, payroll data, or outbound messages without explicit human approval.

Files To Read

  • Routing and process: SKILL.md.
  • Vendor facts: vendors/*.md.
  • Source map: sources.yml.
  • Implementation review: references/integration-checklist.md.
  • Example response style: examples/source-backed-answer.md.

Safety Rules

  • Respect portal terms, robots.txt, and rate limits.
  • Cache politely and cite dataset URLs.
  • Avoid joining data into PII profiles.
  • Record fetch dates and hashes for reproducibility.

Validation Checklist

  • Vendor facts map back to source_urls.
  • Unknowns are labeled instead of guessed.
  • Sandbox and production are separated.
  • Secrets are not printed or committed.
  • High-risk live actions require explicit human approval.
  • Evals in evals/prompts.yml still cover the changed workflow.

Done Criteria

  • The answer names the files read or source-backed references used.
  • The implementation plan includes tests and rollback/verification steps.
  • No unsupported regional, API, compliance, pricing, or endpoint claims are included.
