Databases

Manage TiDB Cloud resources via the ticloud CLI. Use when creating, deleting, or listing TiDB Cloud clusters/branches, managing SQL users, or importing/exporting data via ticloud.

Integration testing standards for API testing, database testing, and service-to-service communication. Covers test containers, Docker Compose, API mocking, and contract testing for reliable integration suites.

Customize existing skills through iterative improvement based on user feedback and preferences. Use when users want to personalize a skill to match their specific workflow, output preferences, domain requirements, or company standards by forking and iteratively refining an existing skill.

Provision TiDB Cloud Serverless clusters and related resources. Use when creating, deleting, or listing clusters/branches, or managing SQL users via the console.

Set up Kysely with TiDB Cloud (TiDB X), including @tidbcloud/kysely over the TiDB Cloud serverless HTTP driver for serverless or edge environments, plus standard TCP usage. Use for Kysely + TiDB Cloud connection setup, demo snippets, and environment-specific guidance.

Set up the TiDB Cloud component (install ticloud CLI and authenticate). Use when the user needs to install ticloud, log in, or fix authentication/network access before running TiDB Cloud operations.

Pattern library discovery for pattern-first development. Use BEFORE implementing any new feature, creating components, writing API routes, or adding database operations. Ensures existing patterns are checked first before writing new code.

Write production-ready SurrealDB queries and operations using SurrealQL. Use when users need to create schemas, write CRUD queries, model graph relationships, build authentication systems, optimize performance, or work with SurrealDB in any capacity.

Guidance for using the TiDB Cloud Serverless Driver (Beta) in Node.js, serverless, and edge environments. Use when connecting to TiDB Cloud Starter/Essential over HTTP with @tidbcloud/serverless, or when integrating with Prisma/Kysely/Drizzle serverless adapters in Vercel/Cloudflare/Netlify/Deno/Bun.

Handles PR review comments and feedback resolution. Use when user wants to resolve PR comments, handle review feedback, fix review comments, address PR review, check review status, respond to reviewer, or verify PR readiness. Fetches comments via GitHub CLI, classifies by severity, applies fixes with user confirmation, commits with proper format, replies to threads.

Use when creating performance optimization plan for backend, API, or general system performance. Enforces BASELINE → PROFILE → OPTIMIZE → VALIDATE sequence. Triggers: "optimize API", "backend slow", "API latency", "database performance", "query optimization", "server response time". For "Core Web Vitals" in backend/API context, use this skill. For frontend UI accessibility + performance (WCAG, Lighthouse accessibility), use frontend-production-quality instead. If thinking "bottleneck is obvious" - profile first.

Nosql standards for nosql in Database environments. Covers best practices,

Database migration creation with mandatory RLS policies and ARCHitect approval workflow. Use when creating migrations, adding tables with RLS, or updating Prisma schema.

Use when designing/modifying system architecture or evaluating technology choices. Enforces 7-section TodoWrite with 22+ items. Triggers: "design architecture", "system design", "architectural decision", "should we use [tech]", "compare [A] vs [B]", "add new service", "microservices", "database choice", "API design", "scale to [X] users", "infrastructure decision". If thinking ANY of these, USE THIS SKILL: "quick recommendation is fine", "obvious choice", "we already know the answer", "just need to pick one", "simple architecture question".

Systematic code review workflows with bundled utilities for analyzing code quality, detecting patterns, and providing structured feedback. Use this skill when reviewing pull requests or conducting code audits.

Perform comprehensive code reviews using OpenAI Codex CLI. This skill should be used when users request code reviews, want to analyze diffs/PRs, need security audits, performance analysis, or want automated code quality feedback. Supports reviewing staged changes, specific files, entire directories, or git diffs.

Sql standards for sql in Database environments. Covers best practices,

Row Level Security patterns for database operations. Use when writing Prisma/database code, creating API routes that access data, or implementing webhooks. Enforces withUserContext, withAdminContext, or withSystemContext helpers. NEVER use direct prisma calls.

Manage scheduled tasks in the crontab configuration file for this dotfiles repository. Use when the user wants to add, remove, update, or query scheduled tasks, cron jobs, or automated maintenance. Triggers include mentions of "cron", "schedule", "automated task", "crontab", "periodic job", or time-based automation.

GraphQL schema architect designing efficient, scalable API graphs. Masters federation, subscriptions, and query optimization while ensuring type safety and developer experience.
