pgvector-semantic-search

Use this skill for setting up vector similarity search with pgvector for AI/ML embeddings, RAG applications, or semantic search. **Trigger when user asks to:** - Store or search vector embeddings in PostgreSQL - Set up semantic search, similarity search, or nearest neighbor search - Create HNSW or IVFFlat indexes for vectors - Implement RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) with PostgreSQL - Optimize pgvector performance, recall, or memory usage - Use binary quantization for large vector datasets **Keywords:** pgvector, embeddings, semantic search, vector similarity, HNSW, IVFFlat, halfvec, cosine distance, nearest neighbor, RAG, LLM, AI search Covers: halfvec storage, HNSW index configuration (m, ef_construction, ef_search), quantization strategies, filtered search, bulk loading, and performance tuning.

design-postgres-tables

Use this skill for general PostgreSQL table design. **Trigger when user asks to:** - Design PostgreSQL tables, schemas, or data models when creating new tables and when modifying existing ones. - Choose data types, constraints, or indexes for PostgreSQL - Create user tables, order tables, reference tables, or JSONB schemas - Understand PostgreSQL best practices for normalization, constraints, or indexing - Design update-heavy, upsert-heavy, or OLTP-style tables **Keywords:** PostgreSQL schema, table design, data types, PRIMARY KEY, FOREIGN KEY, indexes, B-tree, GIN, JSONB, constraints, normalization, identity columns, partitioning, row-level security Comprehensive reference covering data types, indexing strategies, constraints, JSONB patterns, partitioning, and PostgreSQL-specific best practices.

find-hypertable-candidates

Use this skill to analyze an existing PostgreSQL database and identify which tables should be converted to Timescale/TimescaleDB hypertables. **Trigger when user asks to:** - Analyze database tables for hypertable conversion potential - Identify time-series or event tables in an existing schema - Evaluate if a table would benefit from Timescale/TimescaleDB - Audit PostgreSQL tables for migration to Timescale/TimescaleDB/TigerData - Score or rank tables for hypertable candidacy **Keywords:** hypertable candidate, table analysis, migration assessment, Timescale, TimescaleDB, time-series detection, insert-heavy tables, event logs, audit tables Provides SQL queries to analyze table statistics, index patterns, and query patterns. Includes scoring criteria (8+ points = good candidate) and pattern recognition for IoT, events, transactions, and sequential data.

migrate-postgres-tables-to-hypertables

Use this skill to migrate identified PostgreSQL tables to Timescale/TimescaleDB hypertables with optimal configuration and validation. **Trigger when user asks to:** - Migrate or convert PostgreSQL tables to hypertables - Execute hypertable migration with minimal downtime - Plan blue-green migration for large tables - Validate hypertable migration success - Configure compression after migration **Prerequisites:** Tables already identified as candidates (use find-hypertable-candidates first if needed) **Keywords:** migrate to hypertable, convert table, Timescale, TimescaleDB, blue-green migration, in-place conversion, create_hypertable, migration validation, compression setup Step-by-step migration planning including: partition column selection, chunk interval calculation, PK/constraint handling, migration execution (in-place vs blue-green), and performance validation queries.

postgres-hybrid-text-search

Use this skill to implement hybrid search combining BM25 keyword search with semantic vector search using Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF). **Trigger when user asks to:** - Combine keyword and semantic search - Implement hybrid search or multi-modal retrieval - Use BM25/pg_textsearch with pgvector together - Implement RRF (Reciprocal Rank Fusion) for search - Build search that handles both exact terms and meaning **Keywords:** hybrid search, BM25, pg_textsearch, RRF, reciprocal rank fusion, keyword search, full-text search, reranking, cross-encoder Covers: pg_textsearch BM25 index setup, parallel query patterns, client-side RRF fusion (Python/TypeScript), weighting strategies, and optional ML reranking.

tiger-in-the-wild-research

star 9

Monthly research scan for new organic blog posts, testimonials, and user stories about TimescaleDB, Tiger Data, and Tiger Cloud published on third-party websites. Outputs incremental results and updates the cumulative Obsidian-ready markdown master file. MANDATORY TRIGGERS: tiger in the wild, find new user stories, update tiger-in-the-wild research, run the monthly stories scan, organic mentions, user testimonials, who's writing about us, case study leads, wild mentions, community mentions, third-party posts, external mentions. Also trigger when the user asks to find people talking about Tiger Data, TimescaleDB, or Tiger Cloud in the wild, or wants to discover potential case study candidates from organic web content. Even if the user just says 'find me some case study leads', 'who's blogging about us', or 'run the in-the-wild sweep', this is the right skill.

content-reviewer

star 9

Evaluate marketing content drafts against Tiger Data's quality rubrics. Use this skill whenever someone asks to review, evaluate, critique, or give feedback on a blog post, article, white paper, tutorial, or any written marketing content. Also trigger when someone pastes a draft and asks 'how does this look?', 'is this ready?', 'what would you change?', or similar. If someone shares a draft and doesn't explicitly ask for a review but the content is clearly a work-in-progress, offer to run it through the rubric. This is the quality gate — use it before anything gets published.
