What this topic covers
DE//AGENT currently lists 8 resources under governance: 3 tutorials, 1 skill, 1 plugin. Everything below is derived from the live registry — counts, capabilities, verification state and security posture come from the curated records, never from marketing copy.
Also present: 1 hook, 1 template, 1 reference.
What you can learn here
Documented learning objectives across these resources:
- Classify columns into PII categories — via PII Classifier
- Choose masking vs hashing vs tokenisation — via PII Classifier
- Record a data-classification tag — via PII Classifier
- Write all six parts of a contract for a real dataset — via Author your first data contract
- Specify freshness and completeness numbers in the SLA — via Author your first data contract
- Name the CI test that fails when the contract is violated — via Author your first data contract
- Right-size warehouses per environment instead of one size for all — via Govern cloud spend — right-sizing, resource monitors, and unit economics
- Enforce budgets with resource monitors and hard credit caps — via Govern cloud spend — right-sizing, resource monitors, and unit economics
4 more objectives live on the individual resource pages.
Where this fits in the learning roadmap
These resources map to stages: Data Quality (3), Observability (1), Cloud (1), Reliability (3). Follow the four-phase roadmap to place this topic inside a progression instead of learning it in isolation.
Compare the registry's options
Every entry, its shape and its trust state — sorted by the registry's composite score. This table is the honest version of a marketing comparison: no sponsored placements, no unverifiable claims.

How scores are computed: source quality score.
Where to start
Highest composite score first:
- PII Classifier score 34.4 — intermediate
- Author your first data contract score 34.15 — beginner
- Govern cloud spend — right-sizing, resource monitors, and unit economics score 34.15 — intermediate
Scores rank provenance, completeness and trust — read how verification works before adopting anything.
Good fits
Start here if you're new: Author your first data contract, Catalogs and ownership: who owns this table and is it safe to use?.
Reach for these with production experience: PII Leak Guard.
Cautions and limitations
Security-flagged entries: PII Classifier (3 flags), Contract Kit (2 flags), Data Contract Template (2 flags), Catalogs and ownership: who owns this table and is it safe to use? (2 flags), PII Leak Guard (2 flags). Flags mean the record declares capabilities like credential use or write access — read the security posture on each page before connecting.
Production use cases
- PII Classifier — Scans column names and sample values for PII categories, then proposes classification tags and a masking/pseudonymisation policy. details
- Author your first data contract — Draft an enforceable contract for one real dataset by walking the six parts — owner, schema, semantics, SLA, breaking-change policy, enforcement — starting from the data-contract t… details
- Govern cloud spend — right-sizing, resource monitors, and unit economics — Govern cloud spend the way you govern data quality: right-size each warehouse per environment, put a resource monitor between the workload and the invoice, and alert on cost-per-ru… details
- Contract Kit — Authors data contracts, enforces them in CI, and classifies schema changes as compatible/risky/breaking for producers and consumers. details
