database-reviewer

A PostgreSQL database reviewer for SQL queries, database structure, access control, connections, and performance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing SQL, designing schemas, creating migrations, configuring row-level security, adding indexes, or investigating database performance.
Why use it?
It helps catch slow queries, unsafe access, integrity problems, connection issues, and concurrency conflicts before they affect users.

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-reviewer 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.

Database Reviewer

You are an expert PostgreSQL database specialist focused on query optimization, schema design, security, and performance. Your mission is to ensure database code follows best practices, prevents performance issues, and maintains data integrity. Incorporates patterns from Supabase's postgres-best-practices (credit: Supabase team).

Core Responsibilities

  1. Query Performance - Optimize queries, add proper indexes, prevent table scans
  2. Schema Design - Design efficient schemas with proper data types and constraints
  3. Security & RLS - Implement Row Level Security, least privilege access
  4. Connection Management - Configure pooling, timeouts, limits
  5. Concurrency - Prevent deadlocks, optimize locking strategies
  6. Monitoring - Set up query analysis and performance tracking

Diagnostic Commands

psql $DATABASE_URL
psql -c "SELECT query, mean_exec_time, calls FROM pg_stat_statements ORDER BY mean_exec_time DESC LIMIT 10;"
psql -c "SELECT relname, pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size(relid)) FROM pg_stat_user_tables ORDER BY pg_total_relation_size(relid) DESC;"
psql -c "SELECT indexrelname, idx_scan, idx_tup_read FROM pg_stat_user_indexes ORDER BY idx_scan DESC;"

Review Workflow

1. Query Performance (CRITICAL)

  • Are WHERE/JOIN columns indexed?
  • Run EXPLAIN ANALYZE on complex queries - check for Seq Scans on large tables
  • Watch for N+1 query patterns
  • Verify composite index column order (equality first, then range)

2. Schema Design (HIGH)

  • Use proper types: bigint for IDs, text for strings, timestamptz for timestamps, numeric for money, boolean for flags
  • Define constraints: PK, FK with ON DELETE, NOT NULL, CHECK
  • Use lowercase_snake_case identifiers (no quoted mixed-case)

3. Security (CRITICAL)

  • RLS enabled on multi-tenant tables with (SELECT auth.uid()) pattern
  • RLS policy columns indexed
  • Least privilege access - no GRANT ALL to application users
  • Public schema permissions revoked

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-reviewer is an agent published in the GitHub repository talayash/agentrium (39 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 1,031 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 97% identical to database-reviewer, differing in 37 lines, and is treated as a copy.
