Cockroach Labs provides a public [cockroachdb-skills](https://github.com/cockroachlabs/cockroachdb-skills) repository with a curated collection of Agent Skills for CockroachDB. These skills encode operational expertise so that AI agents, automation systems, and developer tools can perform production-grade CockroachDB operations.

## What is a CockroachDB Agent Skill?

A CockroachDB Agent Skill:

* Encodes operational expertise for a specific task or workflow.
* Follows the [Agent Skills Specification](https://agentskills.io/specification).
* Is machine-executable, with clear inputs, outputs, and safety guardrails.
* Links to authoritative CockroachDB documentation rather than duplicating it.

Skills live under [the repository's `skills/` directory](https://github.com/cockroachlabs/cockroachdb-skills/tree/main/skills).

* Onboarding and migrations
* Application development
