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.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill optimizes PostgreSQL database performance. It analyzes query plans, identifies bottlenecks like missing indexes or inefficient queries, and suggests improvements to enhance overall database speed and efficiency. The skill can also help in tuning configuration parameters for better resource utilization.
When to use it
- Slow Query Performance: When specific queries are taking an unexpectedly long time to execute.
- High Database Load: When the database server is consistently under heavy load, impacting application responsiveness.
- Database Tuning: As part of a proactive strategy to optimize database performance before issues arise.
- Index Optimization: To identify and create missing indexes that can significantly speed up query execution.
Key capabilities
- Query plan analysis
- Bottleneck identification
- Index suggestion
- Configuration tuning recommendations
Example prompts
- "Analyze the query plan for this SQL statement:
SELECT * FROM orders WHERE customer_id = 123;and suggest improvements." - "My database is running slowly. Can you identify potential bottlenecks?"
- "Suggest indexes to improve performance on the 'products' table, frequently queried by category."
Tips & gotchas
The skill requires access to the PostgreSQL database and appropriate permissions to analyze query plans and potentially modify schema or configuration. The recommendations provided should be carefully reviewed and tested in a non-production environment before implementation.
