planetscale-vitess-safety-review

planetscale-vitess-safety-review is a skill for Claude Code from planetscale/claude-plugin. It costs 35 tokens per session (1,373 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of planetscale-vitess-safety-review, Apache-2.0.

A review guide for PlanetScale databases that use Vitess, a system that helps MySQL databases scale across multiple servers. It checks migration, deployment, monitoring, webhook, and operational-safety practices without changing the database.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review safe migrations, deploy requests, schema recommendations, Insights, webhooks, and production procedures.
Why use it?
It helps identify unsafe schema changes, weak approval processes, and monitoring gaps before they affect a live database.

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

planetscale-vitess-safety-review 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 10d 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.

Vitess safety review

Purpose

Recommend best practices for a PlanetScale Vitess database. Focus on production safety, deployability, observability, and agent-safe automation. Do not apply any changes.

Primary safety features to evaluate

Safe migrations

Check whether safe migrations are enabled on production and staging branches.

Recommend enabling safe migrations when:

  • The branch receives production traffic.
  • The team runs DDL outside deploy requests.
  • There is no protected branch workflow.
  • The application is expected to evolve schema frequently.

Explain the tradeoff: safe migrations reject direct DDL on protected branches and force schema changes through deploy requests. That is a feature, but it can break teams relying on direct production DDL. Treat enablement as a behavior-changing change requiring approval.

Deploy requests

Check:

  • Whether deploy requests are used for schema changes.
  • Whether administrator approval is required.
  • Whether deploy requests are reviewed for data loss, conflicts, lint errors, foreign key problems, charset issues, and shard impact.
  • Whether teams use gated deployments for cutover control.
  • Whether “deploy instantly” is used and whether the team understands it removes the gated-deployment/revert shape.
  • Whether cutover is regularly delayed by long-running transactions.
  • Whether deploy request events are subscribed to via webhooks.

Recommend:

  • Require deploy requests for production schema changes.
  • Enable administrator approval for production deploy requests when there is more than one administrator.
  • In a single-admin organization, administrator approval does not stop an agent that acts as that admin: the admin who opens a deploy request can also approve it. If the goal is to keep agents from self-approving, give the agent a separate user, or a service token without deploy request approval permission.
  • Prefer normal safe deployments over instant deployments unless the migration is known to be instant-safe and the rollback story is acceptable.
  • Use gated deployment when cutover timing matters.
  • Treat “force cutover now” as an operator-controlled action for delayed cutovers: it aggressively stops running transactions to complete schema cutover. Recommend reviewing the blocking workload and incident context before use, and only recommend the database-level aggressive cutover default when frequent cutover blocking is understood and accepted.

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.
