What it does
DB Generate is an agent skill from medusajs/medusa-agent-skills. Generate database migrations for a Medusa module
Its SKILL.md is about 190 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 migrations. The repository describes itself as: Agent skills and commands for Medusa best practices and conventions.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Database migrations
Example prompts
- “/db-generate”
Requirements
- Node.js
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(npx medusa db:generate:*)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 066132d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
Bash(npx medusa db:generate:*)
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
DB Generate loads about 192 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 15 tokens; SKILL.md has 81 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.
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
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 81 words (~192 tokens).
“Generate database migrations for the specified Medusa module.”
