postgresql

postgresql is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jnPiyush/AgentX. It costs 50 tokens per session (1,274 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to developing PostgreSQL databases, including queries, JSONB data, arrays, full-text search, indexes, and row-level security. PostgreSQL is an open-source relational database used to store and query application data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write PostgreSQL queries, search text, work with JSONB and arrays, optimize indexes, and configure row-level security policies.
Why use it?
It helps choose PostgreSQL data structures and indexes for different query patterns. It also guides search, pagination, multi-tenant data isolation, and database performance work.

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

postgresql 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 5d 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.

PostgreSQL Database Development

Purpose: Production-ready PostgreSQL development for high-performance, scalable applications. Audience: Backend engineers and database administrators working with PostgreSQL. Standard: Follows github/awesome-copilot PostgreSQL patterns.


When to Use This Skill

  • Writing PostgreSQL queries with JSONB or array operations
  • Implementing full-text search in PostgreSQL
  • Optimizing PostgreSQL query performance with indexes
  • Using window functions and CTEs
  • Configuring row-level security (RLS)

Decision Tree

PostgreSQL Decision
+-- Need semi-structured data?
|   +-- Dynamic schema? -> JSONB columns with GIN index
|   +-- Fixed schema? -> Regular columns with B-tree indexes
+-- Need full-text search?
|   +-- Simple keyword match? -> ILIKE or trigram (pg_trgm)
|   +-- Ranked relevance? -> tsvector + GIN index
+-- Pagination needed?
|   +-- Small dataset (<10K rows)? -> LIMIT/OFFSET acceptable
|   +-- Large dataset? -> Cursor-based (keyset) pagination
+-- Multi-tenant data?
|   +-- Row isolation? -> Row-Level Security (RLS) policies
|   +-- Schema isolation? -> Separate schemas per tenant
+-- Aggregation heavy? -> Materialized views with periodic refresh

Prerequisites

  • PostgreSQL 14+ installed or accessible
  • psql or pgAdmin client

Quick Reference

Need Solution Pattern
JSONB query Containment operator WHERE data @> '{"status": "active"}'::jsonb
Array operations ANY operator WHERE id = ANY(ARRAY[1,2,3])
Full-text search GIN index + tsvector CREATE INDEX ON posts USING gin(to_tsvector('english', content))
Window functions ROW_NUMBER, RANK ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY category ORDER BY created_at DESC)
Upsert INSERT ... ON CONFLICT ON CONFLICT (id) DO UPDATE SET ...
JSON aggregation jsonb_agg SELECT jsonb_agg(row_to_json(t)) FROM ...

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.

postgresql is a skill published in the GitHub repository jnPiyush/AgentX (15 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 1,274 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
