ssma-consoleA skill your agent uses when: SSMA console operations — create project, generate assessment report, convert schema, migrate data, Oracle to SQL Server migration, schema conversion, data migration
Ssma Console is an agent skill from github/awesome-copilot, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Use when: SSMA console operations — create project, generate assessment report, convert schema, migrate data, Oracle to SQL Server migration, schema conversion, data migration
Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k 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. It works with Microsoft SQL Server. 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.
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 727ff2e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are xml and powershell).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
ORACLE_PASSWORDSQL_PASSWORDFrom names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Ssma Console loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 327 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.
The full file from github/awesome-copilot at commit 727ff2e, republished under its MIT licence (© github). 327 words, ~1,784 tokens.

A skill your agent uses when: SSMA console operations — create project, generate assessment report, convert schema, migrate data, Oracle to SQL Server migration, schema conversion, data migration. Ssma Console is an agent skill from github/awesome-copilot, published by the product's own GitHub organization.
Ssma Console fits situations like: : SSMA console operations — create project; generate assessment report; oracle to SQL Server migration; schema conversion.
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill ssma-console -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/ssma-console in github/awesome-copilot) into .claude/skills/ssma-console in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill ssma-console -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/ssma-console in github/awesome-copilot) into .agents/skills/ssma-console in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill ssma-console -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ssma-console, .gemini/skills/ssma-console, .github/skills/ssma-console and .opencode/skills/ssma-console in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Ssma Console needs credentials named ORACLE_PASSWORD and SQL_PASSWORD.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Ssma Console is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.8k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Ssma Console: Database Optimizer (davila7/claude-code-templates, 32k stars), Write Script Mssql (windmill-labs/windmill, 18k stars), Implementing Pam For Database Access (mukul975/Anthropic-Cybersecurity-Skills, 34k stars) and Azure Prices (Code-and-Sorts/awesome-copilot-agents, 578 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
github (a GitHub organization, an official publisher) maintains it in github/awesome-copilot, which has 39,748 GitHub stars. The repository holds 417 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on October 7, 2026.
