couchbase-data-modeling

couchbase-data-modeling is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from celticht32/Couchbase-Skills-for-Claude.ai. It costs 187 tokens per session (1,366 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for deciding how information should be organized in Couchbase documents, including keys, document fields, buckets, scopes, and collections. It focuses on data design before application code is written.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose document shapes and key formats, decide whether to embed data or link to separate documents, organize collections, and model time series, events, logs, or vectors.
Why use it?
It helps avoid data structures that make common reads, writes, searches, or future changes unnecessarily difficult.

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

couchbase-data-modeling 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 11d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 86 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Couchbase data modeling

A skill for designing what to put in Couchbase, not operating an existing cluster. The companion couchbase-mcp skill is for executing operations; this one is for the architectural decisions that come before any tool is called.

When this skill applies

Use this skill whenever the conversation is about what shape the data should take, not what tool to call. Concrete signals:

  • "How should I model X in Couchbase?"
  • "Should I embed this or use references?"
  • "What's the right key format?"
  • "Bucket vs scope vs collection?"
  • "I'm coming from [MongoDB / Postgres / DynamoDB] — how do I think about this?"
  • "How do I model time-series / events / logs?"
  • "Where do I put the embedding vector?"
  • "Schema migration in Couchbase?"

If the conversation has already moved to "now run this tool," switch to couchbase-mcp. These skills are designed to compose — modeling first, then operation.

Pick the right reference

Question Read
"What should my keys look like?" references/keys.md
"Should I embed or reference?" / "How big should one document be?" references/document-shape.md
"Bucket vs scope vs collection?" references/boundaries.md
"How do I model for fast queries / FTS / vector search?" references/access-patterns.md
"Time-series, event logs, anything with timestamps and TTL" references/time-series-and-ttl.md
"I think I'm doing something wrong" references/anti-patterns.md
"I'm coming from a relational DB" references/migration-from-relational.md

Each reference is self-contained with a decision tree at the end.

The five-question design pass

Before reaching for any reference, walk the user through these five questions. The answers determine which references matter and which patterns apply:

  1. What does the application read most often? Read patterns drive denormalization. The data you fetch together should live together.
  2. What changes together? Write patterns drive document boundaries. Things that change together should be in the same document, OR separate documents with a transactional update path.
  3. What's the unit of access? A document is the atomic unit in Couchbase. If you frequently need a subset of a "document," it's probably actually multiple documents.
  4. What's the lifespan? Permanent data, session data with TTL, time-series with rolling windows — these belong in different collections or even buckets.
  5. What's the worst-case query? The slowest legitimate query in your workload defines your indexing strategy and possibly your modeling choices.

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.

couchbase-data-modeling is a skill published in the GitHub repository celticht32/Couchbase-Skills-for-Claude.ai (4 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 187 tokens to every session and 1,366 once invoked, about $0.0009 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 2026-08-31.
