[PM-804] fix(parse): support airflow.sdk Variable in astro dev parse#2003
Conversation
When DAGs use the new Airflow 3.x recommended import style `from airflow.sdk import Variable`, the existing monkey patch for `airflow.models.Variable.get` was not being applied. This caused `astro dev parse` to fail with "Variable not found" errors when using remote backends like Azure Key Vault. This fix extends the Variable.get monkey patch to also apply to `airflow.sdk.Variable`, ensuring DAG parsing works correctly for both the legacy `airflow.models.Variable` and the new `airflow.sdk.Variable` import styles. Fixes PM-804 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
airflow.sdk.Variableastro dev parseworks correctly for DAGs using the new Airflow 3.x recommended import style (from airflow.sdk import Variable)Context
Customer upgrading from Airflow 3.1.2 to 3.1.3 was blocked because
astro dev parsefails when DAGs useairflow.sdkVariable.get with Azure Key Vault as the backend.The existing test harness only monkey-patched
airflow.models.Variable.get, so when imports are updated to useairflow.sdk(the new recommended approach in Airflow 3.x), the parse step makes real calls and fails withVariable not found.Verified locally
Tested with Runtime 3.1-7 using DAGs that call
Variable.getat the top level (parse time):main(before)from airflow.models import Variablefrom airflow.sdk import VariableAirflowRuntimeError: VARIABLE_NOT_FOUNDOn
main,airflow.sdk.Variable.getbypasses the monkeypatch and makes a real call, which throwsVARIABLE_NOT_FOUND. This PR patches bothairflow.models.Variableandairflow.sdk.Variableso both import styles work.Test plan
