Use when designing PostgreSQL + Redis data models, indexes, caching strategies, JSONB usage, tiered storage, or cache consistency contracts.

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 Patterns

## Core Principles

- **PostgreSQL Primary** — Relational data, transactions, complex queries
- **Redis Secondary** — Caching, sessions, real-time data
- **Index-First Design** — Design queries before indexes
- **JSONB Sparingly** — Structured data prefers columns
- **Cache-Aside Default** — Read-through, write-around
- **Tiered Storage** — Hot/Warm/Cold data separation
- **No backwards compatibility** — Migrate data, don't keep legacy schemas

## PostgreSQL

### Data Type Selection

| Use Case | Type | Avoid |
|----------|------|-------|
| Primary Key | `UUID` / `BIGSERIAL` | `INT` (range limits) |
| Timestamps | `TIMESTAMPTZ` | `TIMESTAMP` (no timezone) |
| Money | `NUMERIC(19,4)` | `FLOAT` (precision loss) |
| Status | `TEXT` + CHECK | `INT` (unreadable) |
| Semi-structured | `JSONB` | `JSON` (no indexing) |
| Full-text | `TSVECTOR` | `LIKE '%..%'` |

### Schema Design

```sql
-- Use UUID for distributed-friendly IDs
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS "uuid-ossp";

CREATE TABLE users (
  id UUID PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT uuid_generate_v4(),
  email TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
  name TEXT NOT NULL,
  status TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT 'active'
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add majiayu000/spellbook/database-patterns@sha256:555662a4f388764b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260605.a09e45c, 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.
