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

exasol-database 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Exasol Database Skill

Trigger when the user asks for Exasol database interaction, exapump, Exasol SQL, EXA_ system views, schemas, tables, or query execution outside exasol-import and exasol-export.

Step 0: Establish Connection

Ensure a working exapump profile before proceeding:

  1. If the user names a profile, test it with exapump sql --profile <name> "SELECT 1"; always place --profile after the subcommand. Otherwise test the default profile with exapump sql "SELECT 1".
  2. On success, proceed — and keep the same --profile <name> after the subcommand on every later exapump command.
  3. On failure, run exapump profile list to see which profiles exist.
  4. If profiles exist, present them and ask which to use, then inspect that one with exapump profile show <name> — it masks credentials — to confirm the required fields are set. Never read, cat, or print ~/.exapump/config.toml; it stores credentials in clear text. If a credential value does appear in any command output, do not repeat it in the conversation.
  5. If no usable profile exists, have the user create one locally with exapump profile add <name> (omit --password and exapump prompts on a hidden line) or exapump profile init, then retry step 1. Never ask the user to paste a password into the conversation, and never pass one as a command-line argument.

Routing Algorithm

After the connection is established, determine the task type and load only the references needed:

  1. SQL execution (queries, DDL, DML, schema inspection):
    • Load: references/exapump-reference.md (CLI usage)
    • Load: references/exasol-sql.md (core SQL behavior)
    • Load: references/exasol-grammar.md for the exact statement syntax (SELECT/DQL, DDL, DML, DCL, session & admin) — the EBNF the docs.exasol.com syntax diagrams are generated from. Consult it before inventing syntax or when unsure a clause exists. Read only the section you need — it is large.
    • Load: references/exasol-grammar-functions.md for built-in function, operator, predicate, literal, and data-type syntax (e.g. the exact argument order of a function). Same EBNF source, split out so statement lookups don't pull in the full function catalog.
    • Load: references/exasol-reserved-keywords.md and ingest the full list before designing queries — every reserved word (pinned to Exasol 2026.1.0) must be double-quoted when used as an identifier. On a keyword-related syntax error, re-query the running DB as described in Before writing any SQL in case the file has drifted from the DB version.

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.
