Fixes the synthetic data agent workflow failure agent failed to complete - fit a synthesizer on production schema by applying the specific fix in the steps, proving it on one small scope first, then rerunning and reconciling counts. Use when this error blocks generation, validation or export. Not for platform outages,…
Fixes an agent workflow failure behind this query: shrink what the agent carries: summarise the incident history into a compact state block, drop raw logs and full timelines from context, and split the workflow so each step starts with only the state it needs. Use when an automated status page run fails with this patt…

Recovery and prevention for running alembic with the dev alembic.ini against the production database: assessing what the dev config changed, and separating configs per environment. Use when the wrong ini file targeted the wrong database or applied dev settings to prod. Not for correct-config migrations that failed.
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent ran prisma migrate dev against the shared staging database and wiped everyone's data - [agent ran the migration against production because DATABASE_URL pointed at prod in its shell - how to gua…

Recovery when an agent deleted old migration files thinking they were stale, so new environments cannot bootstrap: restoring the files and setting the rule that applied files are never deleted. Use when fresh databases fail to migrate from zero. Not for files that were never applied anywhere.
Recovery when an agent's idempotency check read the wrong state table (flyway_schema_history instead of alembic_version): reconciling the real state and fixing the agent's procedure to check the tool the app actually uses. Use when a migration was skipped or double-applied because the agent consulted the wrong history…
How to fix a migration preview that lied because the dry run used a different postgres search_path than the real migration: aligning the two and making previews trustworthy. Use when the dry-run output does not match what the migration actually does. Not for previews that are wrong for other reasons.
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent dry-ran the codemod and the output looked right, then the real run rewrote files the dry-run had skipped - agent's eval comparison used different seeds across runs: nondeterminism fix
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent's dry run used a different postgres search_path than the real migratio

How to fix a deploy marked failed because the health check queried a table the migration had locked: making health checks lock-aware and migration-safe. Use when health checks fail spuriously during migrations. Not for health checks failing because the app is genuinely broken.
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent d1 migration locked the table during peak traffic - agent's suggested index fixed the SELECT but the migration locked the table for 40 minutes during the ALTER

Public search query: agent's health check queried a table the migration had locked and
Problem outcome: unknown
Recovery when an agent deployed the app before the migration job finished and new code queries a column that does not exist yet: stabilizing the deploy, finishing the migration, and wiring the ordering so it cannot recur. Use when deploy and migration raced. Not for code bugs unrelated to schema timing.
Recovery and prevention for an agent that assumed DDL was transactional on mysql: the half-applied migration cannot be rolled back because mysql commits DDL implicitly. Use when a mysql migration failed midway and left a partial schema. Not for postgres, where transactional DDL usually allows rollback.
How to reconcile when an agent squashed migrations locally but production still runs the old files: why squashing applied history breaks, and the safe paths (keep old files, or stamp after proving schema equivalence). Use when a squash rewrote history that production already recorded. Not for squashes of never-applied…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent profiled on a 16-core VM but production runs on 2-core containers -- the GIL contention never shows up in the test - [the agent's patch validation only re-ran the scanner on the lockfile - the …

How to recover when an agent applied migrations out of order, skipping a revision: comparing the state table against the file chain, applying the skipped revision safely, and reconciling when its work is already partially done. Use when the schema is inconsistent because a revision was skipped. Not for branching heads…
