  • Calls mvn

What it does

704 Technologies SQL is an agent skill from jabrena/plinth. Use when you need framework-agnostic SQL guidance — schema naming, relational table design, query readability, indexes, transactions, database security, migrations, testing, and monitoring — without choosing Spring Boot, Quarkus, or Micronaut. This should trigger for requests such as Review SQL schema or migrations; Improve SQL query performance and readability; Design relational tables and indexes; Review database transaction, security, or monitoring practices. Part of Plinth Toolkit

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/704-technologies-sql.md`).

It sits in Databases, covering SQL and Plain language and style rules. It works with SQL, Spring Boot and Java. The repository describes itself as: Plinth is an AI-native engineering toolkit for modern Java enterprise SDLC, built around reusable Commands, Agents, Skills, and MCP Servers. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • You need framework-agnostic SQL guidance — schema naming
  • Relational table design
  • Query readability
  • Database security

Example prompts

  • “/704-technologies-sql”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5130f45. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • mvn

    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

704 Technologies SQL loads about 1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 128 tokens; SKILL.md has 420 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~128
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~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.

SQL best practices

Help teams create maintainable, secure, and performant SQL for Java applications across relational database engines.

What is covered in this Skill?

  • Naming conventions for tables, columns, indexes, constraints, views, triggers, and routines
  • Relational table design: keys, constraints, timestamps, soft deletes, normalization, and dialect-aware data types
  • Query writing: readable formatting, explicit column lists, joins, CTEs, bind parameters, and execution-plan review
  • Index strategy: foreign keys, filter/sort paths, composite indexes, over-indexing risks, and index lifecycle
  • Security, transactions, migrations, testing, and monitoring practices for production database work

Scope: Framework-agnostic SQL quality. For Java data-access APIs, defer to the matching JDBC, Spring Data JDBC, Panache, or Micronaut Data skill.

Constraints

Keep recommendations at the SQL and database-design layer unless the user explicitly asks for Java framework integration. After editing this repository's XML sources, regenerate skills and verify the build.

  • MANDATORY: Run ./mvnw compile or mvn compile before proposing Java or Maven changes in the same change set
  • SQL INJECTION: Never concatenate untrusted input into SQL strings; use bind parameters through the application's data-access API
  • DIALECTS: Call out database-specific syntax and portability trade-offs when using PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, H2, or another engine
  • FRAMEWORK: Defer Spring JDBC to @311-frameworks-spring-jdbc, Quarkus JDBC to @411-frameworks-quarkus-jdbc, Micronaut JDBC to @511-frameworks-micronaut-jdbc, and framework-specific migrations to the matching Flyway skill
  • VERIFY: Run ./mvnw clean verify or mvn clean verify before promoting changes
  • EDGE CASE: If the target database dialect, migration tool, or production constraint is missing and affects the recommendation, ask a clarifying question before editing SQL
  • EDGE CASE: If requested changes conflict with data safety, backwards compatibility, or zero-downtime deployment constraints, explain the trade-off and ask for confirmation

When to use this skill

  • Review SQL schema or migrations
  • Improve SQL query performance and readability
  • Design relational tables and indexes
  • Review database transaction, security, or monitoring practices
  • Apply SQL best practices to database DDL or DML

Workflow

  1. Read reference and assess database context

Read references/704-technologies-sql.md and inspect current schema, migrations, SQL queries, tests, and database configuration before proposing changes.

  1. Identify dialect and operational constraints

Confirm the target database engine, migration tool, data volume expectations, availability requirements, and compatibility constraints that shape the SQL design.

  1. Apply SQL-aligned changes

Implement or refactor SQL artifacts following the reference patterns and project conventions, keeping Java framework integration out of scope unless explicitly requested.

  1. Run verification and report results

Execute appropriate build, migration, SQL validation, and test checks; summarize what changed, what was verified, and any remaining database risks.
