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 pluginagentmarketplace/custom-plugin-postgresql at 8a52bc4cd9.

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

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows AI agents to create backups of PostgreSQL databases. It can perform full or incremental backups, and specify backup locations for storage. The agent can also restore from these backups when needed, ensuring data recovery capabilities.

When to use it

  • Scheduled Data Protection: Automate regular database backups as part of a disaster recovery plan.
  • Migration Preparation: Create a backup before performing significant database schema changes or upgrades.
  • Development/Testing Environments: Quickly restore databases from backups for testing and development purposes.
  • Data Recovery: Recover data after accidental deletions or corruption within the PostgreSQL database.

Key capabilities

  • Full Database Backups
  • Incremental Backups
  • Backup Location Specification
  • Database Restoration

Example prompts

  • "Create a full backup of the 'production_db' database and store it in '/mnt/backups'."
  • "Perform an incremental backup of 'development_db' since the last full backup."
  • “Restore the latest backup of ‘staging_db’ to a new database named ‘staging_db_recovered’.”

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure the AI agent has appropriate permissions (read/write) on both the PostgreSQL server and the specified backup location.
  • Large databases may require significant time and resources for backups; plan accordingly.
