Which ORMs are supported by this skill?

The skill provides specific implementation patterns and best practices for Sequelize, TypeORM, and Prisma, as well as general SQL migration strategies.

Can I use this for cross-database migrations?

Yes, it includes logic for handling dialect differences, such as switching between PostgreSQL JSONB and MySQL JSON types during a migration.

How does this skill handle zero-downtime migrations?

It follows a multi-phase approach: adding backward-compatible columns, implementing dual-writes, backfilling data, and eventually removing old columns only after the code is updated.

Does it support automatic rollbacks?

The skill provides templates for transaction-based migrations and checkpoint-based rollbacks using backup tables to ensure you can recover from failures safely.
