At a glance

Migrates Oracle PL/SQL stored procedures to PostgreSQL PL/pgSQL.

  • Converting Oracle stored procedures
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Functions to PostgreSQL equivalents during a database migration

What it does

Migrating Oracle To Postgres Stored Procedures is an agent skill from github/awesome-copilot, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Migrates Oracle PL/SQL stored procedures to PostgreSQL PL/pgSQL. Translates Oracle-specific syntax, preserves method signatures and type-anchored parameters, leverages orafce where appropriate, and applies explicit collation mapping (COLLATE "C" only when appropriate, locale collations when required). Use when converting Oracle stored procedures or functions to PostgreSQL equivalents during a database migration.

Its SKILL.md is about 790 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Databases, covering Database migrations and SQL. It works with PostgreSQL, GitHub and SQL. The repository describes itself as: Community-contributed instructions, agents, skills, and configurations to help you make the most of GitHub Copilot. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Converting Oracle stored procedures
  • Functions to PostgreSQL equivalents during a database migration

Example prompts

  • “Use the migrating-oracle-to-postgres-stored-procedures skill to migrate Oracle PL/SQL stored procedures to PostgreSQL PL/pgSQL”
  • “/migrating-oracle-to-postgres-stored-procedures”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 727ff2e. 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.

    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

Migrating Oracle To Postgres Stored Procedures loads about 788 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 116 tokens; SKILL.md has 291 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~116
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~788

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.

Migrates Oracle PL/SQL stored procedures to PostgreSQL PL/pgSQL.

Migrating Stored Procedures from Oracle to PostgreSQL

Translate Oracle PL/SQL stored procedures and functions to PostgreSQL PL/pgSQL equivalents.

Workflow

Progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Read the Oracle source procedure
- [ ] Step 2: Translate to PostgreSQL PL/pgSQL
- [ ] Step 3: Write the migrated procedure to Postgres output directory

Step 1: Read the Oracle source procedure

Read the Oracle stored procedure from .github/oracle-to-postgres-migration/DDL/Oracle/Procedures and Functions/. Consult the Oracle table/view definitions at .github/oracle-to-postgres-migration/DDL/Oracle/Tables and Views/ for type resolution.

Step 2: Translate to PostgreSQL PL/pgSQL

Apply these translation rules:

  • Translate all Oracle-specific syntax to PostgreSQL equivalents.
  • Preserve original functionality and control flow logic.
  • Keep type-anchored input parameters (e.g., PARAM_NAME IN table_name.column_name%TYPE).
  • Use explicit types (NUMERIC, VARCHAR, INTEGER) for output parameters passed to other procedures — do not type-anchor these.
  • Do not alter method signatures.
  • Do not prefix object names with schema names unless already present in the Oracle source.
  • Leave exception handling and rollback logic unchanged.
  • Do not generate COMMENT or GRANT statements.
  • Apply collation intentionally when ordering text:
    • Use COLLATE "C" only when Oracle-compatible binary ordering is required and no other sort order is specified.
    • If Oracle used explicit linguistic sorting (for example NLS_SORT = French), map to an explicit PostgreSQL locale collation instead of "C".
    • Use SELECT collname, collprovider, collcollate, collctype FROM pg_collation ORDER BY collname; to discover collations in the target environment.
  • Treat UNION ALL as a review checkpoint. Validate plan quality per branch and restructure if combined-branch planning causes regressions (for example, unexpected sequential scans on large tables).
  • Leverage the orafce extension when it improves clarity or fidelity.

Consult the PostgreSQL table/view definitions at .github/oracle-to-postgres-migration/DDL/Postgres/{ProjectName}/Tables and Views/ for target schema details.

Step 3: Write the migrated procedure to Postgres output directory

Place each migrated procedure in its own file under .github/oracle-to-postgres-migration/DDL/Postgres/{ProjectName}/Procedures and Functions/{PACKAGE_NAME_IF_APPLICABLE}/. One procedure per file.

{ProjectName} is the project's assembly/folder name with spaces normalized to - (e.g. MyApp.DataAccess). This matches the path used by the agent and other migration skills.
