JPA/Hibernate patterns for entity design, relationships, query optimization, transactions, auditing, indexing, pagination, and pooling in Spring Boot.
npx skills add https://github.com/vibeeval/vibecosystem --skill jpa-patterns
Use for data modeling, repositories, and performance tuning in Spring Boot.
@Entity
@Table(name = "markets", indexes = {
@Index(name = "idx_markets_slug", columnList = "slug", unique = true)
})
@EntityListeners(AuditingEntityListener.class)
public class MarketEntity {
@Id @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;
@Column(nullable = false, length = 200)
private String name;
@Column(nullable = false, unique = true, length = 120)
private String slug;
@Enumerated(EnumType.STRING)
private MarketStatus status = MarketStatus.ACTIVE;
@CreatedDate private Instant createdAt;
@LastModifiedDate private Instant updatedAt;
}
Enable auditing:
@Configuration
@EnableJpaAuditing
class JpaConfig {}
@OneToMany(mappedBy = "market", cascade = CascadeType.ALL, orphanRemoval = true)
private List<PositionEntity> positions = new ArrayList<>();
JOIN FETCH in queries when neededEAGER on collections; use DTO projections for read paths@Query("select m from MarketEntity m left join fetch m.positions where m.id = :id")
Optional<MarketEntity> findWithPositions(@Param("id") Long id);
public interface MarketRepository extends JpaRepository<MarketEntity, Long> {
Optional<MarketEntity> findBySlug(String slug);
@Query("select m from MarketEntity m where m.status = :status")
Page<MarketEntity> findByStatus(@Param("status") MarketStatus status, Pageable pageable);
}
public interface MarketSummary {
Long getId();
String getName();
MarketStatus getStatus();
}
Page<MarketSummary> findAllBy(Pageable pageable);
@Transactional@Transactional(readOnly = true) for read paths to optimize@Transactional
public Market updateStatus(Long id, MarketStatus status) {
MarketEntity entity = repo.findById(id)
.orElseThrow(() -> new EntityNotFoundException("Market"));
entity.setStatus(status);
return Market.from(entity);
}
PageRequest page = PageRequest.of(pageNumber, pageSize, Sort.by("createdAt").descending());
Page<MarketEntity> markets = repo.findByStatus(MarketStatus.ACTIVE, page);
For cursor-like pagination, include id > :lastId in JPQL with ordering.

For PostgreSQL LOB handling, add:
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.jdbc.lob.non_contextual_creation=true
@DataJpaTest with Testcontainers to mirror productionlogging.level.org.hibernate.SQL=DEBUG and logging.level.org.hibernate.orm.jdbc.bind=TRACE for parameter valuesRemember: Keep entities lean, queries intentional, and transactions short. Prevent N+1 with fetch strategies and projections, and index for your read/write paths.
Integration with protocols.io API for managing scientific protocols. This skill should be used when working with protocols.io to search, create, update, or publish protocols; manage protocol steps and materials; handle discussions and comments; organize workspaces; upload and manage files; or integrate protocols.io functionality into workflows. Applicable for protocol discovery, collaborative protocol development, experiment tracking, lab protocol management, and scientific documentation.
Analyzes job descriptions and generates tailored resumes that highlight relevant experience, skills, and achievements to maximize interview chances
Generate Excalidraw diagrams from natural language descriptions. Use when asked to "create a diagram", "make a flowchart", "visualize a process", "draw a system architecture", "create a mind map", or "generate an Excalidraw file". Supports flowcharts, relationship diagrams, mind maps, and system architecture diagrams. Outputs .excalidraw JSON files that can be opened directly in Excalidraw.
Build and distribute Expo development clients locally or via TestFlight
Use when you have a written implementation plan to execute in a separate session with review checkpoints
Data structure for annotated matrices in single-cell analysis. Use when working with .h5ad files or integrating with the scverse ecosystem. This is the data format skill—for analysis workflows use scanpy; for probabilistic models use scvi-tools; for population-scale queries use cellxgene-census.
Benchling R&D platform integration. Access registry (DNA, proteins), inventory, ELN entries, workflows via API, build Benchling Apps, query Data Warehouse, for lab data management automation.
Comprehensive molecular biology toolkit. Use for sequence manipulation, file parsing (FASTA/GenBank/PDB), phylogenetics, and programmatic NCBI/PubMed access (Bio.Entrez). Best for batch processing, custom bioinformatics pipelines, BLAST automation. For quick lookups use gget; for multi-service integration use bioservices.
