The instruction itself

4 sections, as written by the author

Database Schema Designer

Design optimized, scalable database schemas with proper relationships and indexes.

Contents

  • references/schema-templates.md — SQL/NoSQL schema templates, ASCII ERD, and migration script templates.
  • references/output-format.md — labeled section structure for the final deliverable.
  • references/best-practices.md — naming, data types, indexes, relationships, SQL/NoSQL design rules, and the output quality checklist.

Workflow

  • Gather requirements. Determine the database engine (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, etc.), application domain, main entities, most common queries, expected data volume and growth, performance requirements, and any compliance constraints.
  • Design the schema. Apply the engine-appropriate rules in references/best-practices.md (SQL Database Design or NoSQL Database Design).
  • Generate the complete schema. Produce CREATE TABLE statements or collection documents using the templates in references/schema-templates.md.
  • Create the entity relationship diagram in text format following the ERD template in references/schema-templates.md.
  • Provide migration scripts with both up and down (rollback) paths, per the migration template in references/schema-templates.md.
  • Format the complete output using the labeled sections in references/output-format.md.
  • Verify the result against the output quality checklist in references/best-practices.md.

Example Triggers

  • "Design a database schema for an e-commerce platform"
  • "Create SQL tables for a blog system"
  • "Help me design a MongoDB schema for a social network"
  • "Optimize this database schema for performance"
  • "Generate migration scripts for my schema"

Generate production-ready, optimized database schemas that scale.
