Database design with schema analysis, index optimization, and migration generation for PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and DynamoDB. Use when designing schemas, optimizing queries, planning migrations, or analyzing database performance.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Database Designer

The agent analyzes SQL schemas for normalization compliance, recommends optimal indexes based on query patterns, and generates safe migration scripts with rollback procedures. It produces Mermaid ERDs, detects redundant indexes, and implements zero-downtime expand-contract migration patterns for PostgreSQL and MySQL.

## Core Capabilities

- **Schema analysis** — detect normalization violations (1NF-BCNF), missing constraints, naming issues, and data-type problems from DDL or JSON.
- **ERD generation** — produce valid Mermaid entity-relationship diagrams from declared relationships.
- **Index optimization** — recommend indexes from query patterns, order composite columns by selectivity, detect redundant/overlapping indexes, and find covering-index opportunities.
- **Migration generation** — forward + rollback SQL between schema versions, with validation queries.
- **Zero-downtime migrations** — expand-contract pattern with safe backfill for tables with 10M+ rows.
- **Database selection guidance** — match workload requirements to PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, or DynamoDB.

## When to Use

- Designing or reviewing a new schema for normalization and constraints.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add borghei/claude-skills/database-designer@sha256:0bb4ef69fb1034b4

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
