What it does

Howto Develop With Postgres is an agent skill from ed3dai/ed3d-plugins. Use when writing database access code, creating schemas, or managing transactions with PostgreSQL - enforces transaction safety with TX naming, read-write separation, type safety for UUIDs/JSONB, and snakecase conventions to prevent data corruption and type errors

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `typescript-drizzle.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Type safety. It works with PostgreSQL and TypeScript. The repository describes itself as: Ed's repo of Claude Code plugins, centered around a research-plan-implement workflow. Only a tiny bit cursed. If you're lucky.

When your agent uses it

Writing database access code
Creating schemas
Managing transactions with PostgreSQL - enforces transaction safety with TX naming
Read-write separation

Example prompts

“/howto-develop-with-postgres”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Change schema in code
Generate migration file
Review migration SQL
Apply migration to database

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0c90f4b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are typescript).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Howto Develop With Postgres loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 703 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~74
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 703 words (~1,820 tokens).

“Enforce transaction safety, type safety, and naming conventions to prevent data corruption and runtime errors.”
