How does it handle file paths on Windows systems?

The skill enforces a mandatory requirement to use backslashes (\) instead of forward slashes (/) for all file paths on Windows to ensure compatibility with SQL Server tools.

What testing frameworks are supported?

The skill specifically optimizes for tSQLt, the leading open-source unit testing framework for SQL Server, providing automated execution and failure parsing logic.

Does this skill support migration-based deployments?

While it can interpret migration scripts, this skill focuses on state-based deployment using SSDT and DACPACs, as this is the recommended approach for maintainability and version control in 2025.

Can I use this for Azure SQL Database?

Yes, it includes specific patterns for Azure SQL, including the use of Managed Identity and Service Connections to avoid storing plain-text credentials.

Does it create documentation automatically?

No, it follows a strict protocol to only update existing README.md files rather than creating new documentation files, keeping your repository root clean.
