Checking that the SKILL.md file is still in the repository.

Use the PlanetScale CLI (pscale) from automated agents with --format json, auth check, pscale sql, and per-command --force. Run before other PlanetScale skills when driving pscale directly. Use when the user asks to automate pscale, run CLI commands headless, or verify pscale auth from an agent.

Install

npx vskill@latest install gutsofpratik/horizon-skills/source-199a741fef3918795a42111d

SKILL.md

PlanetScale CLI automation

Purpose

Teach agents how to invoke pscale non-interactively. This skill covers CLI conventions only. Operational workflows (inventory, safety review, schema recommendations) use the other skills in this repo — start with ../00-safe-orchestrator/SKILL.md for a full assessment.

Two AGENTS.md files (do not confuse them)

DocumentWherePurpose
CLI agent guideShipped with pscale (AGENTS.md in the CLI repo, or pscale agent-guide)How to call pscale: auth, --format json, flag placement, pscale sql
Project agent guideYour application repository's AGENTS.mdWhich org, database, branch, engine, prod branch, MCP scope, approval rules

Do not edit project AGENTS.md without operator approval (see ../09-mcp-agent-operating-model/SKILL.md).

Bootstrap (always start here)

bash
pscale agent-guide --format json
pscale auth check --format json

If auth check returns "status": "action_required", follow issues and next_steps in the JSON. For login, the human may need to approve in the browser; use pscale auth login --format json.

Conventions

  • Always pass `--format json` for automation.
  • Put `--org <org>` on resource subcommands (database, branch, sql,

api, …) — not on root pscale.

  • Put positional arguments before flags (pscale sql mydb main --org bb …).
  • Use `pscale sql`, not pscale shell (shell requires a TTY).
  • Default SQL role is reader; pass --role admin (or writer/readwriter) for

writes. Match pscale shell semantics for --role and --replica.

  • `--force` is per subcommand only (e.g. database delete … --force, `pscale

sql … --force). There is no global --force or PSCALE_FORCE`.

  • `--format json` alone never skips confirmations — add --force on the

destructive subcommand after explicit user approval.

Typical workflow

bash
pscale auth check --format json
pscale org list --format json
pscale database list --org <org> --format json
pscale branch list <database> --org <org> --format json
pscale sql <database> <branch> --org <org> --format json --query "SELECT 1"

MySQL uses @primary by default (same as pscale shell); pass --keyspace only for multi-keyspace databases.

MCP vs CLI

  • MCP clients — use the hosted PlanetScale MCP server (see `pscale agent-guide

--format json` for the current URL).

  • Shell scripts and coding agents — use pscale with --format json as above.

When this skill is not enough

Install the full PlanetScale skills pack (if not already):

sh
git clone https://github.com/planetscale/skills.git && cd skills && script/setup
# or: npx skills add planetscale/skills -g -y

Then run sub-skills or ../00-safe-orchestrator/SKILL.md for database operations beyond basic CLI invocation.

Current conventions source of truth

Prefer live output over memorized flag syntax:

bash
pscale agent-guide --format json

The embedded guide field contains the full CLI agent guide shipped with your pscale binary.
