Research: clickhouse-best-practices
Cached research evidence for clickhouse-best-practices (not authority).
Purpose
Section titled “Purpose”clickhouse-best-practices encodes 31 prioritized rules (schema PK ordering, data types, JOIN algorithms, insert batching, mutation avoidance, partitioning, skipping indices, agent discovery/safety) that must be checked and cited before giving ClickHouse recommendations. Requires following a strict connect-discover-plan-execute-recover workflow and rule-file consultation order.
Harness Coverage
Section titled “Harness Coverage”Target agents: antigravity, claude-code, codex, crush, cursor, gemini-cli, github-copilot, grok, opencode. Forces rule-driven output format (Rules Checked, Violations, Compliant, Recommendations with citations).
Trust And Risks
Section titled “Trust And Risks”inspect-then-install / needs-inspection per bundle. Official ClickHouse Inc. material. High value when followed; risk of incomplete rule application leading to suboptimal schemas or queries. The skill is advisory only; agents must still validate against live EXPLAIN, cluster topology, and current docs.
Install Prerequisites
Section titled “Install Prerequisites”Same install command as the architecture advisor skill. Requires prior audit of the agent-skills source.
Upstream Maintainer
Section titled “Upstream Maintainer”ClickHouse Inc. (https://github.com/ClickHouse/agent-skills). Complements https://clickhouse.com/docs/best-practices.
Comparable Alternatives
Section titled “Comparable Alternatives”ClickHouse official documentation, CH community knowledge bases, and direct EXPLAIN-driven tuning without the rule wrapper.
> Evidence from public GitHub (raw SKILL.md and ClickHouse blog). Summarizes risks; do not endorse installation without inspection. Not authority.
