Which ORMs are compatible with this skill?

The skill provides specialized guidance and implementation patterns for Sequelize, TypeORM, and Prisma.

Can I use this for zero-downtime production deployments?

Absolutely. It includes a multi-phase blue-green strategy for making backward-compatible changes, allowing you to update your database without stopping your application.

How does it handle differences between PostgreSQL and MySQL?

It includes cross-database logic to handle dialect-specific differences, such as correctly using JSON vs. JSONB types depending on the connected database.

Is it safe for migrating large tables with millions of rows?

Yes, the skill recommends multi-step approaches for column changes on large tables to prevent lock-related performance issues and ensure reliability.

Does this skill support database rollback procedures?

Yes, it includes detailed patterns for both transaction-based and checkpoint-based rollback strategies to ensure data safety during failed migrations.
