Query Translator Skill
Translates SQL queries between different database dialects, handling function mapping, syntax differences, and performance optimization.
Purpose
Enable SQL migration for:
- Dialect conversion
- Function mapping
- Syntax translation
- Performance hint conversion
- Query optimization suggestions
Capabilities
1. Dialect Conversion
- Oracle to PostgreSQL
- SQL Server to MySQL
- MySQL to PostgreSQL
- And more combinations
2. Function Mapping
- Date/time functions
- String functions
- Math functions
- Custom function equivalents
3. Syntax Translation
- Pagination (LIMIT/OFFSET/ROWNUM)
- String concatenation
- NULL handling
- Boolean expressions
4. Performance Hint Conversion
- Index hints
- Join hints
- Optimizer directives
- Execution plan guidance
5. Query Optimization Suggestions
- Index recommendations
- Query restructuring
- Join optimization
- Subquery refactoring

Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
