Direct PostgreSQL access with node-postgres (pg) -- connection pools, parameterized queries, transactions, streaming, LISTEN/NOTIFY, error handling.
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
# PostgreSQL Patterns (node-postgres) > **Quick Guide:** Use the `pg` package (v8.x) for direct PostgreSQL access. **Always use `Pool`** -- never create individual `Client` instances in application code. Use **parameterized queries** (`$1`, `$2`) for ALL user input -- never interpolate strings into SQL. For transactions, check out a dedicated client with `pool.connect()` and use `BEGIN`/`COMMIT`/`ROLLBACK` in a `try`/`catch`/`finally` that always calls `client.release()`. Handle the pool `error` event to prevent process crashes from idle client errors. Use `pg-query-stream` for large result sets to avoid loading everything into memory. --- <critical_requirements> ## CRITICAL: Before Using This Skill **(You MUST use parameterized queries (`$1`, `$2`, ...) for ALL values -- NEVER concatenate or interpolate user input into SQL strings)** **(You MUST use `Pool` for all database access -- NEVER create standalone `Client` instances in application code)** **(You MUST release clients back to the pool in a `finally` block after `pool.connect()` -- leaked clients exhaust the pool and hang the application)** …

How to install
mdr add agents-inc/skills/api-database-postgresql@sha256:35d46f06aff9aeaaThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.afd0e14, 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.
