Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
This skill automates and streamlines the process of migrating databases. It handles schema changes, data transformations, and potential conflicts between different database versions or types. The goal is to minimize downtime and ensure data integrity during these often complex operations.
When to use it
- Upgrading a Database: You need to move from an older version of MySQL to the latest release.
- Migrating Between Database Systems: Switching from PostgreSQL to MongoDB requires schema adjustments and data conversion.
- Applying Schema Changes: Implementing new tables, columns, or indexes across a large database environment.
- Data Warehouse Updates: Refreshing data in a data warehouse with transformed data from operational systems.
Key capabilities
- Automated schema migration
- Data transformation during migration
- Conflict resolution
- Database version compatibility handling
Example prompts
- "Migrate the 'customers' table from MySQL 5.7 to PostgreSQL 14, ensuring all data is converted correctly."
- "Apply the latest schema changes defined in
migration_script.sqlto our production database." - “Can you migrate our legacy Oracle database to a cloud-based Snowflake instance?”
Tips & gotchas
The skill requires access credentials and connection details for both the source and destination databases. Always test migrations on a staging environment before applying them to production data.
