influxdb

influxdb is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from G1Joshi/Agent-Skills. It costs 22 tokens per session (400 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A time-series database for values recorded over time, such as sensor readings, server metrics, and financial ticks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for IoT telemetry, DevOps monitoring, financial time-series data, and dashboards showing changes over time.
Why use it?
It organizes timestamped data for querying trends and measurements efficiently. It is designed for continuously arriving data and later aggregation.

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

influxdb 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.

What it actually says

InfluxDB

InfluxDB is a purpos-built time series database. Version 3.0 (IOx) is a complete rewrite in Rust, using Parquet/Arrow for massive performance gains.

When to Use

  • IoT Metrics: Sensor data from millions of devices.
  • DevOps Monitoring: CPU, RAM, Disk usage over time.
  • Financial Ticks: High frequency trading data.

Quick Start (InfluxQL / SQL)

InfluxDB 3.0 supports SQL!

SELECT room, MEAN(temp)
FROM sensors
WHERE time > now() - 1h
GROUP BY room

Core Concepts

Push vs Pull

InfluxDB is "Push" based (Telegraf agents push data to it). Prometheus is "Pull" based.

High Cardinality (v3)

The old InfluxDB struggled if you had too many "Tags" (Cardinality). The new IOx engine (Parquet-based) handles unlimited cardinality.

Downsampling

Automatically aggregating high-resolution data (1s) into lower resolution (1m, 1h) to save space.

Best Practices (2025)

Do:

  • Use SQL: InfluxDB 3.0 prioritizes SQL (FlightSQL) over the old Flux language.
  • Use Parquet: Understand that data is stored in Parquet (Object Storage friendly).
  • Tag wisely: Even though v3 handles cardinality, proper schema design (Measurement vs Tag vs Field) still matters for query speed.

Don't:

  • Don't use Flux for new projects: It is being deprecated in favor of SQL and Python.

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.

influxdb is a skill published in the GitHub repository G1Joshi/Agent-Skills (12 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 400 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-09-03.
