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 facilitates PostgreSQL replication, allowing for data to be copied from one database server (the primary) to another (the replica). This provides redundancy and read scalability by offloading read queries to the replica. The skill can configure both streaming replication and logical decoding for flexible data synchronization.
When to use it
- Disaster Recovery: Set up a standby PostgreSQL server in a different location for failover in case of primary server failure.
- Read Scalability: Distribute read-only queries across multiple replica servers, reducing load on the primary database.
- Data Analytics/Reporting: Create replicas specifically for running analytical queries without impacting the performance of the main transactional database.
- Geographic Distribution: Deploy a replica closer to users in different regions to minimize latency for data access.
Key capabilities
- Streaming Replication
- Logical Decoding
- Configuration Management
- Redundancy and Failover Support
Example prompts
- "Configure PostgreSQL streaming replication from server A to server B."
- "Set up a logical decoding replica for database analytics."
- “Create a standby PostgreSQL instance in AWS us-west-2.”
Tips & gotchas
- Requires appropriate permissions on both the primary and replica servers.
- Network connectivity between the primary and replica is essential for replication to function correctly.
