What it does

Squix is an agent skill from eduardofuncao/squix. Run SQL queries across databases (Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, etc.) via the squix CLI. Use for running named queries, exploring schema, or parameterized queries. Always use -f for non-interactive output.

Its SKILL.md is about 780 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 141 other files (for example `.github/FUNDING.yml`, `.github/workflows/ci.yml` and `.github/workflows/release.yml`).

It sits in Databases, covering SQL. It works with SQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite. The repository describes itself as: A CLI tool for managing and executing SQL queries across multiple databases. Written in Go, made beautiful with BubbleTea. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Running named queries
Exploring schema
Parameterized queries

Example prompts

“/squix”

Requirements

A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

Always use -f with squix run for SELECT queries — without it, SELECT results open an interactive TUI; non-SELECT queries print a status…
No inline connection flag — must squix switch before queries
Check connection first — run squix status to verify reachability

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 61cbabc. 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
Ships script files (Go and Shell, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
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

Squix loads about 784 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 182 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~784

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.

Squix Skill for AI Coding Agents

What is Squix

Squix is a CLI tool for managing and executing SQL queries across multiple databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, Oracle, SQL Server, ClickHouse, Firebird). It stores named queries in ~/.config/squix/config.yaml.

Critical Rules

Always use -f with squix run for SELECT queries — without it, SELECT results open an interactive TUI; non-SELECT queries print a status message either way
No inline connection flag — must squix switch <name> before queries
Check connection first — run squix status to verify reachability

Non-Interactive Output

bash

squix run <query> -f json        # JSON array of objects
squix run <query> -f csv         # CSV with header row
squix run <query> -f tsv         # Tab-separated values
squix run <query> -f markdown    # Markdown table
squix run <query> -f html        # HTML table with styling
squix run <query> -f sql         # INSERT statements
squix run "SELECT 1" -f json     # Inline SQL works too
squix run --last -f csv          # Re-run last query

Output goes to stdout, errors to stderr. Exit code 1 on failure. Pipe cleanly: squix run list_users -f json > users.json

Empty results: "No results found" on stderr, nothing on stdout.

Setup Workflow

bash

squix init mydb "postgresql://user:pass@localhost:5432/mydb"  # auto-infers DB type
squix switch mydb                                              # or: squix use mydb
squix add list_users "SELECT * FROM users"                     # SQL must be inline
squix run list_users -f json                                   # always use -f

Explore Schema

bash

squix explore              # List all tables (non-interactive, prints to stdout)
squix explain orders -d 2  # Show FK relationships as ASCII tree

List Queries

bash

squix list queries            # Format: ◆ <id>/<name> (<table>)
squix list queries --oneline  # Compact: <id> <name> <table>
squix list connections        # List all configured connections

Parameterized Queries

Named params use :name syntax. Optional defaults with :name|default:

bash

squix add user_by_id "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = :user_id"
squix run user_by_id --user_id 42 -f csv    # named
squix run user_by_id 42 -f csv              # positional

Status & Cleanup

bash

squix status                 # Shows: ● postgres/mydb (schema: public) — reachable
squix remove list_users      # Delete query (no confirmation needed)
echo y | squix remove -c mydb  # Delete connection (needs confirmation)

Commands to Avoid (Interactive)

squix run <query> without -f on a SELECT — opens TUI
squix shell — interactive REPL
squix edit — opens $EDITOR
squix explore <table> — opens TUI
squix info — opens TUI
squix add <name> without SQL — opens $EDITOR
squix run with no args — opens $EDITOR
