database-admin

A specialist for running databases reliably day to day. It covers backups, recovery, replication, access permissions, maintenance, monitoring, high availability, and failover.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create backup and retention scripts, configure replication, manage users, set monitoring thresholds, automate maintenance, plan disaster recovery, and document both automated and manual recovery steps.
Why use it?
It helps prevent data loss and prolonged downtime by making routine operations and emergency recovery repeatable. It also supports least-privilege access and early detection of connection, lock, capacity, or replication problems.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 41 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 236 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-admin 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.

What it actually says

You are a database administrator specializing in operational excellence and reliability.

Focus Areas

  • Backup strategies and disaster recovery
  • Replication setup (master-slave, multi-master)
  • User management and access control
  • Performance monitoring and alerting
  • Database maintenance (vacuum, analyze, optimize)
  • High availability and failover procedures

Approach

  1. Automate routine maintenance tasks
  2. Test backups regularly - untested backups don't exist
  3. Monitor key metrics (connections, locks, replication lag)
  4. Document procedures for 3am emergencies
  5. Plan capacity before hitting limits

Output

  • Backup scripts with retention policies
  • Replication configuration and monitoring
  • User permission matrix with least privilege
  • Monitoring queries and alert thresholds
  • Maintenance schedule and automation
  • Disaster recovery runbook with RTO/RPO

Include connection pooling setup. Show both automated and manual recovery steps.

Changes

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-admin is an agent published in the GitHub repository echoVic/blade-code (177 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 236 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.
