database-designer

database-designer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from seaworld008/Commonly-used-high-value-skills. It costs 26 tokens per session (3,649 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A database design guide for creating and reviewing data structures, relationships, constraints, indexes, migrations, and performance choices. A database schema is the structure that defines how stored data is organized.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze normalization, choose data types and constraints, review indexes, generate entity-relationship diagrams, and plan database changes.
Why use it?
It helps detect design problems that can make data inconsistent, queries slow, or future changes difficult.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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

database-designer 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (index_optimizer.py, migration_generator.py, schema_analyzer.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Database Designer - POWERFUL Tier Skill

Overview

A comprehensive database design skill that provides expert-level analysis, optimization, and migration capabilities for modern database systems. This skill combines theoretical principles with practical tools to help architects and developers create scalable, performant, and maintainable database schemas.

Core Competencies

Schema Design & Analysis

  • Normalization Analysis: Automated detection of normalization levels (1NF through BCNF)
  • Denormalization Strategy: Smart recommendations for performance optimization
  • Data Type Optimization: Identification of inappropriate types and size issues
  • Constraint Analysis: Missing foreign keys, unique constraints, and null checks
  • Naming Convention Validation: Consistent table and column naming patterns
  • ERD Generation: Automatic Mermaid diagram creation from DDL

Index Optimization

  • Index Gap Analysis: Identification of missing indexes on foreign keys and query patterns
  • Composite Index Strategy: Optimal column ordering for multi-column indexes
  • Index Redundancy Detection: Elimination of overlapping and unused indexes
  • Performance Impact Modeling: Selectivity estimation and query cost analysis
  • Index Type Selection: B-tree, hash, partial, covering, and specialized indexes

Migration Management

  • Zero-Downtime Migrations: Expand-contract pattern implementation
  • Schema Evolution: Safe column additions, deletions, and type changes
  • Data Migration Scripts: Automated data transformation and validation
  • Rollback Strategy: Complete reversal capabilities with validation
  • Execution Planning: Ordered migration steps with dependency resolution

Database Design Principles

Normalization Forms

First Normal Form (1NF)
  • Atomic Values: Each column contains indivisible values
  • Unique Column Names: No duplicate column names within a table
  • Uniform Data Types: Each column contains the same type of data
  • Row Uniqueness: No duplicate rows in the table

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.

database-designer is a skill published in the GitHub repository seaworld008/Commonly-used-high-value-skills (74 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 3,649 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
