Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

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.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-skills at 718070a7d6.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

The digitalocean-managed-databases skill enables AI agents to provision, configure, and manage managed database services directly on the DigitalOcean platform. It handles the full lifecycle of database instances, including creation, scaling, and connectivity setup without manual API intervention.

When to use it

  • Automate the deployment of new PostgreSQL or MySQL databases for development environments.
  • Scale existing database clusters up or down based on application load requirements.
  • Configure secure network access rules and SSL certificates for production databases.
  • Reset root passwords or perform backup configurations programmatically.

Key capabilities

  • Provisions managed database instances with one command.
  • Supports multiple database engines including PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, and Redis.
  • Manages instance sizing, storage allocation, and region selection.
  • Configures firewall rules to restrict access by IP address or CIDR blocks.
  • Enables automated backups and point-in-time recovery settings.

Example prompts

"Create a new PostgreSQL database in the NYC3 region with 4GB RAM for my staging environment." "Scale up my existing MySQL instance to 8GB of memory and increase storage to 100GB." "Reset the root password for my MariaDB database and configure it to accept connections only from my office IP range."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has valid DigitalOcean API credentials with sufficient permissions before attempting operations. Managed databases require active billing on your DigitalOcean account; unused instances will incur charges even if not accessed by the agent.
