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 allows AI agents to design and implement custom database drivers. It facilitates creating connectors for specialized or proprietary databases not natively supported by common tools, enabling access to unique data sources. The agent can handle tasks such as defining connection protocols, query parsing, and result set mapping.
When to use it
- Connecting an AI application to a legacy database system with a custom protocol.
- Integrating an AI workflow with a niche or specialized database platform.
- Developing a data pipeline that requires interaction with a proprietary data store.
- Creating a connector for a new, experimental database technology.
Key capabilities
- Custom connection protocol definition
- Query parsing and execution
- Result set mapping to standard formats
- Error handling and logging
Example prompts
- "Design a database driver for the 'AcmeCorp Data Vault' using their proprietary protocol."
- "Create a connector for the 'Starlight Analytics Database' that supports SQL-92 queries."
- "Implement a driver to access data from the 'Quantum Storage System' and return results as JSON objects."
Tips & gotchas
The agent requires detailed specifications of the target database’s protocol and data structures. Success depends heavily on accurate documentation or direct access to the database system for analysis.
