Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.

What does the postgres skill do?
Use this skill for any PostgreSQL database work — table design, indexing, data types, constraints, extensions (pgvector, PostGIS, TimescaleDB), search, and migrations. **Trigger when user asks to:** - Design or modify PostgreSQL tables, schemas, or data models - Choose data types, constraints, indexes, or partitioning strategies - Work with pgvector embeddings, semantic search, or RAG - Set up full-text search, hybrid search, or BM25 ranking - Use PostGIS for spatial/geographic data - Set up TimescaleDB hypertables for time-series data - Migrate tables to hypertables or evaluate migration ca
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add timescale/pg-aiguide --skill postgres --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From timescale/pg-aiguide, a repository with 1,806 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
