What is load-to-mysql?

A loader that imports taxonomy data—a controlled list of coded items such as categories or countries—into MySQL or MariaDB. It can create a table with suitable text encoding and read the taxonomy from a CSV file.

Creating MySQL or MariaDB tables, importing taxonomy files, and replacing, updating, or appending rows with selected character-set and collation settings.

It removes the need to write the table definition and import SQL yourself, including settings that help store international characters correctly.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00040	$0.00828
Opus 5.5	$0.00016	$0.00331
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00008	$0.00166
Haiku 4.5	$0.00004	$0.00083

Security

Grade A, and why

load-to-mysql 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 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.

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.

Load Taxonomy to MySQL

Load a taxonomy into MySQL or MariaDB with proper charset/collation, DDL generation, and load modes.

When to use

"Load this into my MySQL database"
"I want the taxonomy in MySQL with utf8mb4"
"Upsert the data into the MySQL table"

Inputs to gather

Connection: DSN (mysql+pymysql://user:pass@host:port/dbname) or env vars (MYSQL_HOST, MYSQL_USER, MYSQL_PASSWORD, MYSQL_DATABASE, MYSQL_PORT).
Table name: What to call the table.
Taxonomy file path: Absolute path to CSV or auto-discover from data/<name>/<name>.csv.
Load mode: replace, upsert, append.
Charset/collation: Default utf8mb4 / utf8mb4_unicode_ci; allow override.

Procedure

Generate DDL: Infer column types:
- code → VARCHAR(32) or VARCHAR(64), PRIMARY KEY.
- label / name → VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL.
- Numeric → INT, BIGINT, or DECIMAL as appropriate.
- metadata → JSON (MySQL 5.7+).
- parent_code → VARCHAR(32) with FOREIGN KEY constraint.
- Timestamps → TIMESTAMP or DATETIME.
- End all VARCHAR columns with CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci.
- Full table definition: CREATE TABLE <table> (…) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_ci;
Show user the DDL for approval.
Ensure local_infile=1: Check SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'local_infile'. If off, require user to enable it (session or config); note this is a security surface.
Handle load mode:
- replace: TRUNCATE TABLE <table>; LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '<csv_path>' INTO TABLE <table> FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' IGNORE 1 ROWS;
- upsert: Use LOAD DATA … ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE col1=VALUES(col1), col2=VALUES(col2), …; (MySQL 8.0.19+) or row-by-row INSERT … ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE via Python.
- append: Direct LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE without TRUNCATE.
For hierarchical: Disable FK checks with SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0; before load, re-enable after (to handle parent-before-child ordering).
Log the operation: Write to state/loads/<timestamp>-<database>.<table>.log with timestamp, mode, row count, status.
