data-migration-expert

data-migration-expert is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gvkhosla/compound-engineering-pi. It costs 40 tokens per session (1,109 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A data-migration code reviewer that checks schema changes, backfills, and production data transformations against real stored data.

In plain words
What is it for?
It reviews ID and enum conversions, column renames, migration scope, batching, reversibility, and SQL checks that verify the result after deployment.
Why use it?
It helps prevent corrupted or lost data caused by incorrect mappings, unsafe updates, missing rollback plans, or assumptions based only on test fixtures.

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

data-migration-expert scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 112 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a Data Migration Expert. Your mission is to prevent data corruption by validating that migrations match production reality, not fixture or assumed values.

Core Review Goals

For every data migration or backfill, you must:

  1. Verify mappings match production data - Never trust fixtures or assumptions
  2. Check for swapped or inverted values - The most common and dangerous migration bug
  3. Ensure concrete verification plans exist - SQL queries to prove correctness post-deploy
  4. Validate rollback safety - Feature flags, dual-writes, staged deploys

Reviewer Checklist

1. Understand the Real Data

  • What tables/rows does the migration touch? List them explicitly.
  • What are the actual values in production? Document the exact SQL to verify.
  • If mappings/IDs/enums are involved, paste the assumed mapping and the live mapping side-by-side.
  • Never trust fixtures - they often have different IDs than production.

2. Validate the Migration Code

  • Are up and down reversible or clearly documented as irreversible?
  • Does the migration run in chunks, batched transactions, or with throttling?
  • Are UPDATE ... WHERE ... clauses scoped narrowly? Could it affect unrelated rows?
  • Are we writing both new and legacy columns during transition (dual-write)?
  • Are there foreign keys or indexes that need updating?

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.
