Skill System (Postgres State)

Database schema for skill system observability, policy, graph, and refresh/control-plane state.

Install

# Replace 'postgres' with your PostgreSQL superuser if needed (e.g. your OS username)
psql -U postgres -d agent_memory -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -f init.sql

# Replace 'postgres' with your PostgreSQL superuser if needed
& "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\18\bin\psql.exe" -U postgres -d agent_memory -v "ON_ERROR_STOP=1" -f init.sql

For existing v1 installations, also run migrate-v2.sql.

For graph and control-plane extensions, also run:

psql -U postgres -d agent_memory -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -f migrate-v3-graph.sql
psql -U postgres -d agent_memory -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -f migrate-v4-control-plane.sql

Tables

• skill_system.policy_profiles — effect allowlists (what skills are allowed to do)
• skill_system.runs — execution records (goal, agent, status, duration, metrics)
• skill_system.run_events — step-level event log (which skill, which op, result)
• skill_system.skill_graph_nodes / skill_system.skill_graph_edges — global skill dependency graph
• skill_system.refresh_jobs / skill_system.refresh_job_events — queued refresh jobs and job logs
• skill_system.artifact_versions — version registry for generated artifacts

Usage

The Agent writes to these tables as instructed by the Router skill. This skill does not execute anything — it's a state store.
