Enforce explicit approval gates for any PlanetScale, database, repository, credential, network, or automation mutation.
Safely triage PlanetScale schema recommendations and turn them into reviewed branches, migrations, issues, or pull requests without applying production changes.
Inspect an application repository connected to PlanetScale and recommend SQLCommenter-compatible query tagging packages and conventions.
Configure safe agent behavior around PlanetScale MCP, Insights, schema recommendations, and repository work without autonomous production mutation.
Produce the final PlanetScale best-practices report after running the inventory and relevant review skills.
Execute approved PlanetScale changes end-to-end without per-step approval when the operator has explicitly acknowledged the risk.

Postgres best practices maintained by Supabase, for Postgres running anywhere. Load this skill BEFORE writing or changing anything that lives in a Postgres database: creating or altering tables and columns (including choosing column types), schema design, migrations and declarative schema files, RLS policies and the tests that verify them, indexes, triggers, database functions, queues and scheduled jobs (pg_cron, pgmq), vector/semantic search (pgvector), and restoring dumps (pg_restore) or importing data. Also load it when diagnosing slow queries, high CPU, timeouts, EXPLAIN plans, connection exhaustion, locking, bloat, or rows visible to the wrong user or tenant. This is not just a performance guide — schema, migration, security, and SQL authoring tasks need these rules too, even for a one-column change or a single query.
