Top Databases & Schemas Skills for Cursor

Database skills verified on Cursor are almost entirely vendor-published, which is the right way round for this category: Supabase and Neon for Postgres, PlanetScale for MySQL branching workflows, MongoDB for document modelling, Prisma for ORM and migration patterns, and Redis for caching. Install the one matching your database rather than a generic SQL skill — the value is in the vendor's own migration and branching conventions.

8 databases skills we have not confirmed on Cursor

Listed rather than hidden. Absence here usually means untested, not broken — check each skill page for the agents it is verified on.

A combination only gets a page here when at least 6 skills are verified on the agent — otherwise the page would be a stub pretending to be a ranking.

FAQ

Common questions

Will a database skill let Cursor run migrations against production?

Not on its own — these skills supply schema, query, and migration patterns, not credentials. The risk arrives when you also give the agent a connection string. Point skills at a branch or a local database, and keep production migrations behind the same review gate as any other deploy.

How many databases skills work with Cursor?

6 of the 14 skills catalogued in Databases & Schemas are verified working on Cursor. The remaining 8 are either untested on this agent or depend on capabilities it does not provide — they are listed below rather than hidden.

How do I install a databases skill on Cursor?

Each skill page carries the exact Cursor command. Cursor reads SKILL.md through a compatibility layer, which is why compatibility here is tested per skill rather than assumed.
