CockroachDB Plugin for Cursor connects the Cursor coding agent to CockroachDB clusters for database work such as exploring schemas, writing SQL, debugging queries, and managing distributed clusters. It supports self-hosted and CockroachDB Cloud connections, and its catalogue add-ons provide database-focused agents, skills, rules, and instructions.
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 | $0.00059 | $0.06252 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00024 | $0.02501 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.01250 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00625 |
Grade A, and why
auditing-cloud-cluster-security scanned grade A 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 2mo 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Auditing Cloud Cluster Security
Assesses the security posture of a CockroachDB Cloud cluster by examining network access controls, authentication and SSO configuration, user authorization, encryption, audit logging, and backup status. Produces a structured PASS/WARN/FAIL report with remediation links for each finding. Supports both CockroachDB Cloud and self-hosted clusters — checks that don't apply to the deployment model are marked N/A.
Read-only audit: All operations are read-only. No cluster state is modified during the assessment.
When to Use This Skill
- Preparing for SOC 2, HIPAA, or other compliance reviews
- Conducting periodic security posture assessments
- Onboarding a new production cluster and validating security baseline
- Investigating security configuration gaps after an incident
- Reviewing cluster security before a major release or customer onboarding

| Authorization | sql | Users, roles, admin grants, PUBLIC privileges |
| Encryption | ccloud + sql | CMEK status, TLS settings |
| Audit Logging | sql | Audit log config, session logging |
| Backup & Recovery | ccloud + sql | Managed backup status, self-managed backup schedules |
| Cryptographic Posture | sql + openssl + sslyze | TLS version, PQC hybrid cipher support, encryption key size |

| Cluster Configuration | ccloud | Version, plan, regions |
What ships with it
4 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.

auditing-cloud-cluster-security is a skill published in the GitHub repository cockroachdb/cursor-plugin (2 stars, last pushed 28d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 6,252 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). It is 100% identical to auditing-cloud-cluster-security, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
