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 an AI agent to debug Ecto constraint issues within Elixir and Phoenix applications. It helps identify the root cause of validation errors, incorrect data types, or other constraint violations that prevent database operations from succeeding. The agent can analyze error messages and suggest fixes based on Ecto's schema definitions.
When to use it
- When encountering cryptic "constraint violation" errors in your Phoenix application’s database interactions.
- During development when rapidly iterating on data models and needing quick feedback on constraint correctness.
- To assist junior developers or those less familiar with Ecto's schema validation process.
- For automated testing of data integrity by simulating invalid inputs and verifying error handling.
Key capabilities
- Error message analysis
- Schema definition interpretation
- Constraint violation identification
- Fix suggestion
Example prompts
- "I'm getting a constraint violation error: 'email cannot be blank'. What does my schema say about the email field?"
- "My Ecto schema for
Userhas a validation thatagemust be greater than 18. How can I test this constraint?" - "The database operation failed with an error related to uniqueness constraints. Can you help me understand which fields are involved and why the conflict occurred?"
Tips & gotchas
This skill requires access to your Elixir/Phoenix project's schema definitions (e.g., lib/your_app/repo.ex). Ensure the AI agent has sufficient context about your application’s data models for accurate analysis and suggestions.
