find-postgres-bug

A guide for finding hidden bugs in a local PostgreSQL source tree. PostgreSQL is an open-source database system, and a source tree is its checked-out code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Building a debug PostgreSQL instance, fuzzing it with SQLsmith, analysing crashes, creating minimal reproductions, and tracking down the responsible code change.
Why use it?
It uses intensive testing and crash investigation to uncover failures that ordinary tests may miss and reduce them to a reproducible example.

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

find-postgres-bug 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 12 executable files (scripts/analyze_commit.sh, scripts/bisect_run.sh, scripts/build_and_start_pg.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

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.

find-postgres-bug is a skill published in the GitHub repository digoal/blog (8,569 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed GPL-2.0. It adds 195 tokens to every session and 4,246 once invoked, about $0.0010 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.
