Use this skill whenever working with QuestDB — a high-performance time-series database. Trigger on any mention of QuestDB, time-series SQL with SAMPLE BY, LATEST ON, ASOF JOIN, ILP ingestion, or the questdb Python/Go/Java/Rust/.NET client libraries. Also trigger when writing Grafana queries against QuestDB, creating materialized views for time-series rollups, working with order book or financial market data in QuestDB, or any SQL that involves designated timestamps or time-partitioned tables. QuestDB extends SQL with unique time-series keywords — standard PostgreSQL or MySQL patterns will fail. Always read this skill before writing QuestDB SQL to avoid hallucinating incorrect syntax. --- # QuestDB Skill ## How to Use This Skill **IMPORTANT — MINIMIZE ROUND-TRIPS:** - Do NOT explore library source code (cryptofeed, questdb, etc.) - Do NOT check library versions or verify callback signatures - Do NOT read installed package files to "understand the API" - Do NOT verify infrastructure (Docker containers, Grafana health) is running — trust the user's prompt - Do NOT start `02_ingest.py` separately — `03_dashboard.py` launches it and verifies data automatically - Do NOT read extra reference files for topics already covered in this skill file - DO read reference files when their topic applies (e.g. enterprise.md for auth, grafana-advanced.md for complex panels) - Do NOT use task tracking (TaskCreate/TaskUpdate) for straightforward builds - Do NOT add `sleep` commands to wait for data or check background processes (the deploy script handles this) - Do NOT Ctrl+C, restart, or re-launch the ingestion process once `03_dashboard.py` has started it - Do NOT put VWAP, Bollinger, or RSI in separate timeseries panels — they are refIDs on the OHLC candlestick panel - Do NOT omit or empty `fieldConfig.overrides` — they put RSI on a right Y-axis (0-100%) and spread on a right axis. Without them, different scales crush the chart flat. - Do NOT set dashboard refresh to `"5s"` — the defa
Skill files are scattered across GitHub and communities, difficult to search, and hard to evaluate. SkillWink organizes open-source skills into a searchable, filterable library you can directly download and use.
We provide keyword search, version updates, multi-metric ranking (downloads / likes / comments / updates), and open SKILL.md standards. You can also discuss usage and improvements on skill detail pages.
Sort by downloads/likes/comments/updated to find higher-quality skills.
4. Which import methods are supported?
Upload archive: .zip / .skill (recommended)
Upload skills folder
Import from GitHub repository
Note: file size for all methods should be within 10MB.
5. How to use in Claude / Codex?
Typical paths (may vary by local setup):
Claude Code:~/.claude/skills/
Codex CLI:~/.codex/skills/
One SKILL.md can usually be reused across tools.
6. Can one skill be shared across tools?
Yes. Most skills are standardized docs + assets, so they can be reused where format is supported.
Example: retrieval + writing + automation scripts as one workflow.
7. Are these skills safe to use?
Some skills come from public GitHub repositories and some are uploaded by SkillWink creators. Always review code before installing and own your security decisions.
8. Why does it not work after import?
Most common reasons:
Wrong folder path or nested one level too deep
Invalid/incomplete SKILL.md fields or format
Dependencies missing (Python/Node/CLI)
Tool has not reloaded skills yet
9. Does SkillWink include duplicates/low-quality skills?
We try to avoid that. Use ranking + comments to surface better skills:
