What it does

Databases is an agent skill from kbanc85/claudia. Inspect Claudia's unified production memory database and backups. Use for database identity, health, counts, schema, WAL, backup inventory, or an explicitly approved database override.

Its SKILL.md is about 360 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 DevOps & Cloud, covering Backup and disaster recovery. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Terminal-based AI chief of staff. Remembers relationships, tracks commitments, helps you think strategically. Runs on Claude Code.

When your agent uses it

  • Database identity
  • Backup inventory
  • An explicitly approved database override

Example prompts

  • “/databases”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Resolve the exact target path and verify it is a readable SQLite database.
  2. Show the current and target paths and explain that a Codex restart is required.
  3. Back up .mcp.json.
  4. Add CLAUDIA_DB_OVERRIDE to mcpServers.claudia-memory.env in the workspace .mcp.json.
  5. Run npx get-claudia codex . so the generated plugin MCP declaration stays aligned.
  6. Start a new Codex session and verify the active database through a memory health call.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eb63cec. 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:

    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Databases loads about 356 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 167 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~49
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~356

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 167 words (~356 tokens).

“Inspect first; mutate only with explicit approval.”
