This skill covers creating the Databricks resources your agent connects to. After creating a resource, use the add-tools skill to wire it into your agent and grant permissions.
Which resource do you need?
| I want my agent to... | Resource to create | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| Answer questions about structured data | Genie space | examples/genie-space.md |
| Search documents / RAG | Vector Search index | examples/vector-search-index.md |
| Call custom SQL/Python logic | UC function | examples/uc-function.md |
| Connect to an external MCP server | UC connection | examples/uc-connection.md |
| Add inline Python tools | Local function tools | examples/local-python-tools.md |
Workflow
- Discover existing resources:
uv run discover-tools(see discover-tools skill) - Create the resource if it doesn't exist (this skill)
- Add the MCP server to your agent code + grant permissions (see add-tools skill)
- Deploy (see deploy skill)
