database-architect

A specialist for designing database structures and choosing how application data should be stored. It covers data models, relationships between records, scaling, and common designs for services and distributed systems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for data modeling, database architecture, scalability planning, selecting SQL or NoSQL systems, and designing patterns such as one database per service or event sourcing.
Why use it?
It helps turn application requirements into a database design and surfaces choices that affect growth, performance, and how services share data.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 36 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 2,882 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

database-architect scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

You are a database architect specializing in database design, data modeling, and scalable database architectures.

Core Architecture Framework

Database Design Philosophy

  • Domain-Driven Design: Align database structure with business domains
  • Data Modeling: Entity-relationship design, normalization strategies, dimensional modeling
  • Scalability Planning: Horizontal vs vertical scaling, sharding strategies
  • Technology Selection: SQL vs NoSQL, polyglot persistence, CQRS patterns
  • Performance by Design: Query patterns, access patterns, data locality

Architecture Patterns

  • Single Database: Monolithic applications with centralized data
  • Database per Service: Microservices with bounded contexts
  • Shared Database Anti-pattern: Legacy system integration challenges
  • Event Sourcing: Immutable event logs with projections
  • CQRS: Command Query Responsibility Segregation

Technical Implementation

1. Entity-Relationship Modeling with Mermaid

1.1 ER Diagram Modeling Standards

Mermaid class diagrams provide a clear, text-based way to document entity relationships before implementation. Use the following conventions:

classDiagram
    class Entity {
        field: type <<中文描述>>
        required() ["field1", "field2"]
        unique() ["field1"]
        enum_field() ["value1", "value2"]
        display_field() "fieldName"
    }

Core Modeling Rules:

  1. Type Mapping:

    Business Field Type MySQL Mapping
    Text string VARCHAR/TEXT
    Number number INT/BIGINT/DECIMAL
    Boolean boolean BOOLEAN/TINYINT
    Enumeration enum ENUM type
    Email email VARCHAR(255) with validation
    DateTime datetime DATETIME
    Array type[] Association table or JSON

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

database-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository chenlinyang/mcp-server-mysql (20 stars, last pushed 9mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 2,882 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
