How to change the SQLAlchemy data model and generate the matching Alembic migration.

What it does

Change Database Schema is an agent skill from martin-ueding/geo-activity-playground. How to change the SQLAlchemy data model and generate the matching Alembic migration. Use when adding, removing, or altering fields, tables, or relationships in the database schema.

Its SKILL.md is about 230 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 schema design, Database migrations and ORMs and data access. It works with SQLAlchemy. The repository describes itself as: Data analysis and visualization based on GPS tracked outdoor activities.

When your agent uses it

  • Altering fields
  • Relationships in the database schema

Example prompts

  • “/change-database-schema”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 28f76ed. 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:

    • uv

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, 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

Change Database Schema loads about 225 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 68 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~225

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 68 words (~225 tokens).

“You have modified any of the data models.”
