seed

seed is a skill for Claude Code from Hainrixz/claude-db. It costs 98 tokens per session (653 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A generator of predictable sample database records from a schema, ORM model, or migration files. An ORM is a tool that maps database tables to code objects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to make SQL or JSON fixtures for local development, automated tests, and continuous-integration checks.
Why use it?
It creates test data in the correct foreign-key order without connecting to or changing a database.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is node scripts/gen-seed.mjs --file <schema> --rows N [--format sql|json].

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

seed 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 8d 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 — 34 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/claude-db:seed

Generates FK-aware, deterministic sample/seed INSERTs from a schema. Read-only — it never connects to or writes to a database. The output is dev/test data only: predictable values derived from the row index (no RNG), suitable for fixtures, local development, and CI — never for production.

$ARGUMENTS = <path-to-schema> [flags]. The target is a schema/DDL, ORM model, or migration file. If no path is given, detect one in the working directory (look for *.sql, schema.prisma, models.py, migration dirs). If nothing is found, say so plainly and suggest pointing at a file or running /claude-db:design to create one.

What to do

  1. Resolve the schema path (from $ARGUMENTS or detection above).
  2. Run the generator:
    node scripts/gen-seed.mjs --file <schema> --rows N [--format sql|json]
    
    • --rows N defaults to 5 (clamped 1–1000). --format defaults to sql; json returns the statements as an array plus metadata.
    • The script topologically sorts tables so each table's FK parents are inserted first, fills FK columns with valid parent ids, and skips auto-increment/identity PKs.
  3. Present the result:
    • The insert order (dependency order, parents → children) and per-table row counts.
    • The generated INSERT statements, grouped by table in that order.
    • The parser confidence and any tables skipped or cycles ignored.
  4. Offer to save to a file (e.g. seed.sql or fixtures.json) — only write if the user confirms a path. Otherwise leave it inline.

Notes

  • Deterministic by design: re-running with the same --rows yields byte-identical output, so seeds are diff-friendly and reproducible.
  • Values are illustrative placeholders (emails like [email protected], fixed timestamps, sequential ids) — not realistic or privacy-safe production data.
  • Cyclic FKs are ignored for ordering; deferred-constraint or self-referential cases may need a manual pass after generation.

For dev/test fixtures only. Never run generated seeds against a production database. Respond in the user's language (EN/ES).

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.

seed is a skill published in the GitHub repository Hainrixz/claude-db (19 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 98 tokens to every session and 653 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 2026-08-30.
