What it does
Python Database Patterns is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. SQLAlchemy and database patterns for Python. Triggers on: sqlalchemy, database, orm, migration, alembic, async database, connection pool, repository pattern, unit of work.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `references/connection-pooling.md`, `references/migrations.md` and `references/sqlalchemy-async.md`). Compatibility notes: SQLAlchemy 2.0+, Python 3.10+. Async requires asyncpg (PostgreSQL) or aiosqlite.
It sits in Databases, covering ORMs and data access, Database migrations and Design patterns. It works with Python and SQLAlchemy. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.
When your agent uses it
- Connection pool
- Repository pattern
Example prompts
- “/python-database-patterns”
Requirements
- Python 3
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): SQLAlchemy 2.0+, Python 3.10+. Async requires asyncpg (PostgreSQL) or aiosqlite.
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Bash
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4ac52da. 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:
ReadWriteBash
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python).
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
SQLAlchemy 2.0+, Python 3.10+. Async requires asyncpg (PostgreSQL) or aiosqlite.
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Python Database Patterns loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~9.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 96 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: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
allowed-tools: Read, Write, Bash
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 96 words (~1,210 tokens).
