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
The postgres-query-expert skill enables AI agents to execute complex PostgreSQL queries directly, transforming natural language requests into valid SQL statements for data retrieval and manipulation. It acts as a specialized interface allowing agents to interact with database schemas without requiring manual code generation or syntax verification from the user.
When to use it
- Retrieving specific records based on natural language descriptions of business logic.
- Generating aggregate reports that require multiple joins and conditional filtering.
- Validating data integrity by running diagnostic queries against production tables.
- Automating routine administrative tasks like updating status fields across large datasets.
Key capabilities
- Translates natural language prompts into executable PostgreSQL SQL code.
- Handles complex query structures including joins, subqueries, and aggregations.
- Operates within the context of a connected PostgreSQL database instance.
Example prompts
- "Find all customers who have placed orders in the last 30 days but haven't made a purchase this month."
- "Generate a report showing total revenue per category, grouped by region and sorted by highest sales volume."
- "Update the status of all pending support tickets to 'resolved' where the resolution time is less than 24 hours."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your AI agent has explicit read/write permissions on the target PostgreSQL database before executing write operations. Always review generated SQL queries in a sandbox environment before running them against production data to prevent accidental data loss or performance bottlenecks.
