How does this skill help with PostgreSQL performance?

It provides specific recommendations for indexing strategies (like B-tree vs GIN), partitioning for large datasets, and choosing efficient data types to minimize storage and maximize query speed.

Does it support advanced Postgres features like JSONB or RLS?

Absolutely. The skill covers modern features including JSONB indexing, Row-Level Security policies, and specialized types like Ranges, Arrays, and Network types.

Why use this instead of generic SQL guidance?

PostgreSQL has specific behaviors regarding case sensitivity, identity columns, and MVCC storage. This skill provides domain-specific expertise tailored to these nuances that generic SQL tools often miss.

Can it help with safe schema migrations?

Yes, it includes guidelines for transactional DDL and concurrent index creation to ensure database updates don't lock your tables or cause downtime.
