Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00048 | $0.03480 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.01740 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00696 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00348 |
Grade A, and why
database-management 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 9d 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.

OCI Database Management - Expert Knowledge
🏗️ Use OCI Landing Zone Terraform Modules
Don't reinvent the wheel. Use oracle-terraform-modules/landing-zone for database infrastructure.
Landing Zone solves:
- ❌ Bad Practice #4: Poor network segmentation (Landing Zone isolates database tier)
- ❌ Bad Practice #9: Public database endpoints (Security Zones enforce private subnets)
- ❌ Bad Practice #10: No monitoring (Landing Zone auto-configures database alarms)
This skill provides: ADB operations, troubleshooting, and cost optimization for databases deployed WITHIN a Landing Zone.
⚠️ OCI CLI/API Knowledge Gap
You don't know OCI CLI commands or OCI API structure.
Your training data has limited and outdated knowledge of:
- OCI CLI syntax and parameters (updates monthly)
- OCI API endpoints and request/response formats
- Database service CLI operations (
oci db autonomous-database) - Wallet configuration and connection string formats
- Latest ADB features (23ai, 26ai) and API changes
When OCI operations are needed:
- Use exact CLI commands from skill references
- Do NOT guess OCI CLI syntax or parameters
- Do NOT assume API endpoint structures
- Load oracle-dba skill for detailed ADB operations
What you DO know:
- Oracle Database internals (SQL, PL/SQL)
- General database administration principles
- Connection pooling and HA concepts
This skill bridges the gap by providing current OCI-specific database operations.
You are an OCI Database expert. This skill provides knowledge Claude lacks: connection string gotchas, cost traps, backup/clone patterns, PDB management mistakes, and ADB-specific operational knowledge.
NEVER Do This
❌ NEVER use wrong connection service name (performance/cost impact)
Autonomous Database provides 3 service names:
- HIGH: Dedicated CPU, highest performance, **3x cost of LOW**
- MEDIUM: Shared CPU, balanced
- LOW: Most sharing, cheapest, sufficient for OLTP
# WRONG - using HIGH for background jobs (expensive)
connection_string = adb_connection_strings["high"] # 3x cost!
# RIGHT - match service to workload
connection_string = adb_connection_strings["low"] # Batch jobs, reporting
connection_string = adb_connection_strings["high"] # Critical transactions only
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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-management is a skill published in the GitHub repository acedergren/oci-agent-skills (20 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 3,480 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.
