Description
Store and query time-series data with hypertables, compression, and continuous aggregates.
Usage Guidance
This skill is documentation-only and appears coherent. Before using it: ensure you have a running PostgreSQL instance with the TimescaleDB extension and that the psql client is available on PATH; the skill will not install TimescaleDB for you. Review any SQL before executing (some commands like converting large tables, compression, or retention are irreversible/expensive). If you plan to use the mentioned 'timescaledb-parallel-copy' tool, obtain it from a trusted source — the skill does not declare or install it. Because the skill does not request credentials, the agent/you will need to provide DB connection details at runtime if you want it to run commands; only supply credentials to trusted agents/environments.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: timescaledb Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle contains standard metadata and a `SKILL.md` file that provides documentation and SQL examples for using TimescaleDB. The `SKILL.md` explicitly requires the `psql` binary, which is appropriate for interacting with a PostgreSQL-based database. There are no shell commands, prompt injection attempts, or instructions for the AI agent to perform any actions beyond assisting with TimescaleDB operations. All content is aligned with the stated purpose and lacks any high-risk behaviors or malicious intent.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the SKILL.md content. Declares psql as an available binary which is appropriate for running the provided SQL. Minor note: the doc mentions the third-party tool 'timescaledb-parallel-copy' but the skill does not declare that binary as required (informational only).
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md contains SQL commands and operational guidance for hypertables, compression, retention, indexes, etc. It does not instruct reading unrelated files, environment variables, or sending data to external endpoints.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only skill (low risk). Nothing is downloaded or written to disk by the skill package itself.
Credentials
The skill declares no environment variables or credentials. That is proportional: the instructions assume an existing PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB instance and psql client, but do not request secrets themselves.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent system presence or modify other skills/config. Normal autonomy settings remain (no extra privilege requested).
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install timescaledb
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /timescaledb
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
