BF rds-oss
Advises on Amazon RDS open-source engines (MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL) for instance creation, upgrade planning, commitment pricing, proxy evaluation, and Blue/Green deployments. Handles any RDS MySQL, MariaDB, or PostgreSQL question, including create a production-ready RDS MySQL instance, provision an RDS PostgreSQL database, run the RDS upgrade advisor for my RDS MySQL instance, what are my upgrade options, upgrade RDS MariaDB from 10.6 to the latest version, should I buy reserved instances or a savings plan for db.r7g.2xlarge RDS MySQL, change a VARCHAR to INT column on RDS MySQL 8.0 with Blue/Green, and does RDS Proxy help when PgBouncer already runs in transaction mode. Covers instance creation with production best practices, describe-db-instances and describe-db-engine-versions upgrade-target workflow, live prechecks via SSM or direct connection, RI versus DSP commitment pricing, RDS Proxy versus PgBouncer, and Blue/Green lifecycle with binlog replay compatibility.

How to improve
- The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 30Running it twice. 39 mutating operations with no state check
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 5914 tokens
- 100Steps. 75 steps
- 100Failures and branches. 5 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
- low The response is described with custom markup (4 tags): a typed call is more reliable
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
