Which databases and ORMs are supported?

This skill provides best practices for PostgreSQL and MySQL, with specific implementation guides for Prisma, Drizzle, Django, TypeORM, and golang-migrate.

How does this skill help with zero-downtime deployments?

It implements the 'Expand-Contract' pattern, which involves adding new columns first, dual-writing data, and only dropping old columns once the application code is fully transitioned.

Can it prevent database locks on large tables?

Yes, it provides patterns such as creating indexes concurrently and batching DML updates to ensure that migrations don't block production traffic.

Does it handle data backfills?

Yes, it includes patterns for separate data migrations (DML) that are decoupled from schema changes (DDL) to ensure safer rollbacks and performance.

Guides developers through safe, reversible database schema changes and zero-downtime deployments using industry-standard patterns.

This skill equips Claude with the specialized knowledge required to manage database migrations in production environments without risk. It provides standardized patterns for schema modifications, data backfilling, and rollback strategies for major tools like Prisma, Drizzle, Django, and golang-migrate. By focusing on the 'Expand-Contract' pattern and avoiding common pitfalls like blocking table locks in PostgreSQL and MySQL, this skill ensures that database evolutions remain safe, predictable, and compatible with high-availability systems.
