polygres-sdk

Instructions for using the Polygres Python SDK, a programming package for writing application records and searching project data through Polygres' Runtime API.

In plain words
What is it for?
It supports writing records, graph, text, hybrid, vector, and Polygres AI Context queries, plus managing supported collections, points, and durable operations.
Why use it?
It helps developers use the correct project connection and supported retrieval methods without exposing API keys or confusing the Runtime API with other database endpoints.

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

polygres-sdk 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 2d 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 — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Polygres SDK

Build Python application code against the public polygres-sdk package and a project's Runtime API. Use $polygres-cli instead for human authentication, control-plane project administration, imports, migrations, and API-key management.

Workflow

  1. Inspect pyproject.toml, requirements files, and existing client setup.
  2. Confirm the installed polygres-sdk and polygres-cli versions before live or end-to-end testing. If testing a Polygres source checkout, create an isolated environment, reinstall both packages from that checkout under its dependency-installation policy, and verify their versions and import origins. Do not substitute PyPI packages for the checkout under test.
  3. Outside a source checkout, compare both installed versions with the application requirements or current skill compatibility record. Obtain approval before installing or changing dependencies.
  4. Resolve POLYGRES_API_KEY and POLYGRES_RUNTIME_URL from server-side environment configuration. Never log or embed either value.
  5. Confirm that the URL is the per-project Runtime API URL, not the Polygres control-plane URL or a direct or pooled Postgres URL.
  6. Resolve project mode before selecting a namespace. For a synced project, construct client.project(project_mode="synced") and read references/synced-projects.md.
  7. Check project.readiness() before relying on graph, existing vector, or legacy hybrid retrieval. For new semantic retrieval, prefer Polygres AI Context: call project.context.get_capabilities() and then inspect collection status or verification. Use project.connection_info() only for passwordless connection metadata.
  8. Keep every pgContext call on the flat project.context namespace. Prefer $polygres-cli for interactive setup. Use SDK mutations for explicit, backend-owned automation, return them immediately, and wait only when the application workflow requires a terminal result.
  9. Choose one focused retrieval call. Use real row IDs returned by the SDK or verified application data; never invent graph identifiers.
  10. Bound depth, candidate counts, result limits, pagination, and application token budget. Apply authorization before retrieval because filters are not an authorization boundary.
  11. Preserve result provenance, request IDs, and typed models through RAG assembly. Deduplicate before constructing context.
  12. Handle the documented exception hierarchy and test success, malformed responses, fuzzy or empty queries, invalid dimensions, and transient errors.

What ships with it

9 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.

Changes

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.

polygres-sdk is a skill published in the GitHub repository Evokoa/polygres-skills (10 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 1,254 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
