Does this skill support specific ORMs?

Yes, it provides detailed workflows and code snippets for Prisma, Drizzle, Django, TypeORM, and golang-migrate.

How can I add an index to a large production table safely?

The advisor provides patterns for creating indexes concurrently, which allows the database to build the index without blocking writes to the table.

What is the 'expand-contract' pattern for migrations?

It is a three-phase strategy where you first expand the schema (add new fields), migrate the data and application logic, and finally contract the schema (remove old fields) to ensure zero downtime.

Can it help with large-scale data backfills?

Absolutely. It offers patterns for batch-based updates using loops and 'FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED' to process millions of rows without causing long-running transaction issues.
