What this skill does
This skill enables Claude to manage database schema changes through version-controlled migrations. It is activated when the user requests to create, apply, or rollback database migrations. The skill supports generating timestamped migration files with both up and down migrations for PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and MongoDB. It helps in tracking schema evolution and ensuring safe database modifications. Use this skill when the user mentions "database migration", "schema change", "add column", "rollback migration", or "create migration".
Trigger phrases
Claude loads this skill automatically when you say things like:
How it works
- Migration File Generation: Claude generates a timestamped migration file, including both "up" (apply changes) and "down" (rollback changes) migrations.
- Database Support: The generated migration file is compatible with PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, or MongoDB.
When to use it
- Create a new database migration file.
- Add a column to an existing database table.
- Rollback a previous database migration.
- Manage database schema changes.
Best practices
- Transactions: Wrap migration steps within transactions to ensure atomicity; either all changes succeed, or none do.
- Naming Conventions: Use clear and descriptive names for your migration files (e.g., `YYYYMMDDHHMMSS_add_email_to_users`).
