What it does

Django Materialized Views is an agent skill from hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins. Model, migrate, refresh, and verify PostgreSQL materialized views in Django for expensive report or dashboard queries that can tolerate stale data. Use when ORM/index/query rewrites are not enough, the result is read often, freshness can be bounded, and a Django app needs unmanaged models, RunSQL migrations, refresh commands, or concurrent refresh.

Its SKILL.md is about 610 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/materialized-view-patterns.md`). Compatibility notes: Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Backend development and ORMs and data access. It works with Django, PostgreSQL and SQL. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of awesome OpenAI Codex / ChatGPT plugins, skills, and resources. The 1 Codex Marketplace. See live plugins at: https://hol.org/plugins/best-codex-plugins. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • ORM/index/query rewrites are not enough
  • The result is read often
  • Freshness can be bounded
  • A Django app needs unmanaged models

Example prompts

  • “/django-materialized-views”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.

Workflow steps

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

  1. Confirm fit.
  2. Design the materialized view.
  3. Integrate with Django.
  4. Implement refresh.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 78497e5. 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.

  • Compatibility

    Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Django Materialized Views loads about 611 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 94 tokens; SKILL.md has 244 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~94
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~611
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.3k

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.

Django Materialized Views

Use this skill when an expensive read query is reused often and can tolerate controlled staleness. Try query-plan, index, and ORM expression improvements first; materialized views add operational state.

Workflow

  1. Confirm fit.

    • The source query is expensive and stable.
    • Consumers can accept stale data.
    • Refresh cadence, ownership, and failure behavior are clear.
    • PostgreSQL is the target database.
  2. Design the materialized view.

    • Define the SQL query and output columns.
    • Add a unique column or unique column set if concurrent refresh is required.
    • Add indexes for consumer queries against the view.
  3. Integrate with Django.

    • Create the view with RunSQL.
    • Represent it as an unmanaged model with managed = False.
    • Keep the unmanaged model fields aligned with the SQL output.
    • Make writes impossible at the application boundary.
  4. Implement refresh.

    • Use REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW for simple refreshes.
    • Use REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY only when the view is already populated and has a qualifying unique index.
    • Schedule refresh through a management command, task queue, or database job.

See materialized-view-patterns.md for migration, model, and refresh templates.

Safety Notes

  • A materialized view returns stored data; it is not automatically current.
  • Concurrent refresh avoids locking out reads but has prerequisites and still allows only one refresh at a time per view.
  • Refreshing a large view can be a major database workload. Measure it separately from reads.

Verification

Validate the SQL against source tables, test the unmanaged model reads, prove refresh behavior, and measure read latency before/after.
