postgres-patterns

A collection of PostgreSQL database patterns for schema design, indexes, queries, connection pooling, and row-level security. PostgreSQL is a relational database that stores structured data in tables and supports SQL queries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing SQL or migrations, designing tables and indexes, investigating slow queries, configuring connection pooling, or implementing row-level security, which controls data access for individual rows.
Why use it?
It helps avoid slow queries, unsuitable data types, weak access controls, and database designs that are difficult to extend. The examples show how indexes and query structures should match common workloads.

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

postgres-patterns 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 2d 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 模式

PostgreSQL 最佳实践快速参考。如需详细指导,请使用 database-reviewer 智能体。

何时激活

  • 编写 SQL 查询或迁移时
  • 设计数据库模式时
  • 排查慢查询时
  • 实施行级安全性时
  • 设置连接池时

快速参考

索引速查表

查询模式 索引类型 示例
WHERE col = value B-tree(默认) CREATE INDEX idx ON t (col)
WHERE col > value B-tree CREATE INDEX idx ON t (col)
WHERE a = x AND b > y 复合索引 CREATE INDEX idx ON t (a, b)
WHERE jsonb @> '{}' GIN CREATE INDEX idx ON t USING gin (col)
WHERE tsv @@ query GIN CREATE INDEX idx ON t USING gin (col)
时间序列范围查询 BRIN CREATE INDEX idx ON t USING brin (col)

数据类型快速参考

使用场景 正确类型 避免使用
ID bigint int,随机 UUID
字符串 text varchar(255)
时间戳 timestamptz timestamp
货币 numeric(10,2) float
标志位 boolean varcharint

常见模式

复合索引顺序:

-- Equality columns first, then range columns
CREATE INDEX idx ON orders (status, created_at);
-- Works for: WHERE status = 'pending' AND created_at > '2024-01-01'

覆盖索引:

CREATE INDEX idx ON users (email) INCLUDE (name, created_at);
-- Avoids table lookup for SELECT email, name, created_at

部分索引:

CREATE INDEX idx ON users (email) WHERE deleted_at IS NULL;
-- Smaller index, only includes active users

RLS 策略(优化版):

CREATE POLICY policy ON orders
  USING ((SELECT auth.uid()) = user_id);  -- Wrap in SELECT!

UPSERT:

INSERT INTO settings (user_id, key, value)
VALUES (123, 'theme', 'dark')
ON CONFLICT (user_id, key)
DO UPDATE SET value = EXCLUDED.value;

游标分页:

SELECT * FROM products WHERE id > $last_id ORDER BY id LIMIT 20;
-- O(1) vs OFFSET which is O(n)

队列处理:

UPDATE jobs SET status = 'processing'
WHERE id = (
  SELECT id FROM jobs WHERE status = 'pending'
  ORDER BY created_at LIMIT 1
  FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED
) RETURNING *;

反模式检测**

-- Find unindexed foreign keys
SELECT conrelid::regclass, a.attname
FROM pg_constraint c
JOIN pg_attribute a ON a.attrelid = c.conrelid AND a.attnum = ANY(c.conkey)
WHERE c.contype = 'f'
  AND NOT EXISTS (
    SELECT 1 FROM pg_index i
    WHERE i.indrelid = c.conrelid AND a.attnum = ANY(i.indkey)
  );

-- Find slow queries
SELECT query, mean_exec_time, calls
FROM pg_stat_statements
WHERE mean_exec_time > 100
ORDER BY mean_exec_time DESC;

-- Check table bloat
SELECT relname, n_dead_tup, last_vacuum
FROM pg_stat_user_tables
WHERE n_dead_tup > 1000
ORDER BY n_dead_tup DESC;

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.

postgres-patterns is a skill published in the GitHub repository Luohaothu/everything-codex (24 stars, last pushed 21d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 1,085 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
