It takes what the inventory and the review skills found and writes one markdown report with a fixed shape: scope, executive summary, current state, a recommendations table, and a proposed change set that needs approval. The template is strict about wording. Every recommendation has to cite the finding it addresses — a query fingerprint, a metric, an event count, a time window. Unused features are written up as capability gaps with measured impact, never as "off, and that's fine". Tool failures such as HTTP status codes, MCP errors and timeouts go into the run log, not the findings, because a failed call says nothing about the database; "not configured" needs a successful call that came back empty. Output is plain markdown with headed sections, prose and pipe tables, and that baseline is always produced in full. A richer surface like Cursor canvas or an HTML preview can be added on top, never used instead. Recommendation IDs carry prefixes `OBS-*`, `VIT-*`, `PG-*`, `WEB-*`, `APP-*` and `AGENT-*`, and the safety and observability sections differ between Vitess and Postgres — worth checking which engine your database runs before you start. ## Requirements - Works with: PostgreSQL ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add planetscale/skills --skill planetscale-customer-report-template -a claude-code ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `~/.claude/skills/planetscale-customer-report-template/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/planetscale-customer-report-template/ ### Codex 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add planetscale/skills --skill planetscale-customer-report-template -a codex ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.agents/skills/planetscale-customer-report-template/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/ ### Cursor 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add planetscale/skills --skill planetscale-customer-report-template -a cursor ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.cursor/skills/planetscale-customer-report-template/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/ ### GitHub Copilot 1. **GitHub CLI** ```bash gh skill install planetscale/skills planetscale-customer-report-template ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.github/skills/planetscale-customer-report-template/SKILL.md` ### Gemini CLI 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add planetscale/skills --skill planetscale-customer-report-template -a gemini-cli ``` 2. **Platform CLI** ```bash gemini skills install https://github.com/planetscale/skills --path planetscale-customer-report-template ``` ### Windsurf (Devin Desktop) **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.devin/skills/planetscale-customer-report-template/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works ### OpenCode **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add planetscale/skills --skill planetscale-customer-report-template -a opencode ``` ### Claude.ai **Claude.ai** - Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/planetscale/skills/tree/HEAD/planetscale-customer-report-template/SKILL.md ## When to use it - fold inventory and review results into a single report - attach a measurement to every recommendation - keep tooling failures out of the database findings - describe unused features by their measured impact - draft a change set with a test and rollback plan ## Example prompts - Run the PlanetScale assessment and produce the final report from the template - Assess the database and the connected repository, tag recommendations with OBS- and PG- prefixes - Write the proposed change set as its own section with a test plan and rollback plan ## Source text · SKILL.md · MIT Below is the content of a third-party file.

BEGIN THIRD-PARTY FILE b0ffcc6bacb4c474 ```text --- name: planetscale-customer-report-template description: Produce the final PlanetScale best-practices report after running the inventory and relevant review skills. --- # Customer report template ## Purpose Produce a clear assessment report for a customer database and optional connected repository. The report should be actionable, evidence-backed, and safe. It should separate recommendations from applied changes. ## Tone and framing The report's purpose is an accurate assessment that helps the customer get full value from the platform they run. Feature adoption follows from evidence, never from framing. The register is technical and declarative — an engineer's assessment, not marketing copy. - **State unused features as capability gaps with quantified impact.** Never write "off (good)", "not enabled (safe)", or otherwise present non-adoption as a positive finding. The correct form is: current state, what the feature provides, the measured finding it applies to. Example: "Raw query collection: disabled. Enabling it exposes literal parameter values per execution; applicable to Q1 (38% of total query time), where the pattern-level data is insufficient to isolate the triggering invocation." - **No enthusiasm markers.** Do not use phrases like "earning its keep", "paying off", "easy to adopt", "cutting root-cause time from hours to minutes", or exclamation of any kind. State the mechanism and the measurement; let the numbers carry the argument. - **Operational costs are stated inline as facts**, not softened: "literal values become visible to the observability pipeline" is a property of the feature, stated once, without reassurance. - **Every recommendation cites the specific finding it addresses** — fingerprint, metric, event count, time window. A recommendation without a measurement attached is incomplete. - **Active features are assessed, not praised.** If a feature is enabled, report what it is currently doing in measurable terms ("anomaly detection flagged the connection spike 9 times in 7 days; no delivery ``` END THIRD-PARTY FILE b0ffcc6bacb4c474 The third-party file has ended.
