Research and answer PostgreSQL core questions by inspecting a local postgres source checkout and docs; produce sourced Markdown answers saved to the project's m
The pgfaq skill guides the agent to answer PostgreSQL core project questions with evidence from a local postgres source tree and official docs. It enforces a disciplined workflow: verify you're in a postgres source checkout, search doc/src/sgml and relevant src/ directories, consult DeepWiki for cross-checks, and produce a sourced Markdown answer saved under markdown/.
Use pgfaq when a user asks about PostgreSQL core internals, behavior, SQL, configuration, performance, storage, planner/executor details, replication, or administration and expects a documented, verifiable Markdown answer. Refuse requests about third-party extensions, cloud-managed offerings, or non-core projects.
Best suited to agents that can inspect local repositories and run shell searches (Copilot, Code-oriented agents, or any agent with file system access).
pgfaq is a PostgreSQL core FAQ research skill that guides agents to inspect a local postgres source checkout and documentation, cross-check with DeepWiki MCP, and produce sourced Markdown answers in Chinese. No bundled scripts — it's a pure workflow/instruction skill. The SKILL.md is well-structured with clear scope restrictions, a 7-step research workflow, and an answer format template. Setup requires a local postgres source tree and DeepWiki MCP access, limiting broad usability.
Pure workflow skill with no scripts. No security concerns. Scope is tightly defined (PostgreSQL core only) with explicit refusal criteria. Well-written instructions but niche audience and non-trivial setup requirements.
