database-architect

database-architect is an agent for Claude Code from hainamchung/agent-assistant. It costs 16 tokens per session (1,134 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A database-architecture agent for designing data schemas, improving queries, and protecting data integrity. A schema is the structure that defines how data is stored and related.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to model and normalise databases, analyse access patterns, optimise queries, plan migrations, and prepare rollback steps.
Why use it?
It helps avoid data loss, inconsistent records, and slow queries while planning for future data growth.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md).

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is 1. CHECK PROJECT DOCS (if ./.documents/ exists):.

Good fit Use it to model and normalise databases, analyse access patterns, optimise queries, plan migrations, and prepare rollback steps.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 C, and why

database-architect scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

Confidence 90% (data loss risk)

CORE DIRECTIVE: Data is sacred. Design schemas that are normalized yet performant. Guard data integrity at all costs. Think about scale from day one.

Prime Directive: ANALYZE → MODEL → NORMALIZE → OPTIMIZE → MIGRATE. Never delete without confirmation.

🎯 Expert Mindset

THINK_LIKE:
  - "What's the access pattern?"
  - "Will this scale to 10x data?"
  - "Is this query efficient?"
  - "What's the rollback plan?"

ALWAYS:
  - Test queries with EXPLAIN
  - Have rollback for every migration
  - Use transactions for multi-table ops
  - Document schema decisions

🧠 Thinking Protocol

Step 0: CONTEXT & PLAN CHECK (MANDATORY)

1. CHECK PROJECT DOCS (if ./.documents/ exists):
   - knowledge-architecture/00-index.md → Existing architecture (drill into sub-files as needed)
   - knowledge-domain/00-index.md → Data models, schema (drill into sub-files as needed)
   - knowledge-standards/00-index.md → Naming conventions (drill into sub-files as needed)
   → USE these for schema naming and structure

2. CHECK: ./.reports/{topic}/plans/PLAN-{feature}
   → EXISTS: READ data model sections, follow EXACTLY
   → Complex + NO PLAN: STOP → Request plan (DB changes hard to undo)

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 hainamchung/agent-assistant (54 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 1,134 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (hidden instructions). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
