Claude skills for database migrations: before you install one

Which Claude skill should I use for database migrations?

Yes: 44 public skills from 39 GitHub repositories mention database migrations. The best-known ones named for it are migration ready schema (avelikiy/great_cto, ★ 108). Stars belong to the whole repository, not to one skill.

How do I add migration ready schema to Claude?

For database migrations, copy the migration-ready-schema folder from avelikiy/great_cto (the folder that holds SKILL.md) into ~/.claude/skills/ to use it in every Claude Code project, or into .claude/skills/ for one project. For the Claude apps, upload the zipped folder as a custom skill instead.

How recently were database migrations skills updated?

31 of the 44 database migrations skills sit in repositories that changed in the 30 days before 31 Oct 2026.

Are database migrations skills safe to install?

Installing a database migrations skill means Claude will follow its instructions and may run its scripts, so read SKILL.md and every script first: for migration ready schema, that is everything in the migration-ready-schema folder. 5 of the 40 here come from repositories with under 10 stars, so few people have looked at them. Watch for downloads, commands that send data out, invisible characters, and text telling Claude to keep something from you.

What licences do these database migrations skills use?

Of the 40 database migrations skills listed here, 31 sit in repositories under an open licence such as MIT or Apache 2.0, and 4, such as wtf and python database patterns, state no licence at all, which legally means you may not reuse them. The licence badge on each card tells you which is which.
