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 | $0.00037 | $0.04005 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00018 | $0.02003 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00801 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00400 |
Grade A, and why
postgresql-table-design 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 6d 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.
This is a copy
98% identical to postgresql-table-design — 237 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

PostgreSQL Table Design
Core Rules
- Define a PRIMARY KEY for reference tables (users, orders, etc.). Not always needed for time-series/event/log data. When used, prefer
BIGINT GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY; useUUIDonly when global uniqueness/opacity is needed. - Normalize first (to 3NF) to eliminate data redundancy and update anomalies; denormalize only for measured, high-ROI reads where join performance is proven problematic. Premature denormalization creates maintenance burden.
- Add NOT NULL everywhere it’s semantically required; use DEFAULTs for common values.
- Create indexes for access paths you actually query: PK/unique (auto), FK columns (manual!), frequent filters/sorts, and join keys.
- Prefer TIMESTAMPTZ for event time; NUMERIC for money; TEXT for strings; BIGINT for integer values, DOUBLE PRECISION for floats (or
NUMERICfor exact decimal arithmetic).
PostgreSQL “Gotchas”
- Identifiers: unquoted → lowercased. Avoid quoted/mixed-case names. Convention: use
snake_casefor table/column names. - Unique + NULLs: UNIQUE allows multiple NULLs. Use
UNIQUE (...) NULLS NOT DISTINCT(PG15+) to restrict to one NULL. - FK indexes: PostgreSQL does not auto-index FK columns. Add them.
- No silent coercions: length/precision overflows error out (no truncation). Example: inserting 999 into
NUMERIC(2,0)fails with error, unlike some databases that silently truncate or round. - Sequences/identity have gaps (normal; don't "fix"). Rollbacks, crashes, and concurrent transactions create gaps in ID sequences (1, 2, 5, 6...). This is expected behavior—don't try to make IDs consecutive.
- Heap storage: no clustered PK by default (unlike SQL Server/MySQL InnoDB);
CLUSTERis one-off reorganization, not maintained on subsequent inserts. Row order on disk is insertion order unless explicitly clustered. - MVCC: updates/deletes leave dead tuples; vacuum handles them—design to avoid hot wide-row churn.
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.

postgresql-table-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository andersonlemesc/Oryntra (5 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 4,005 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 98% identical to postgresql-table-design, differing in 237 lines, and is treated as a copy.
