clickhouse-architecture-advisor
MUST USE when designing ClickHouse architectures, selecting between ingestion or modeling patterns, or translating best practices into workload-specific system designs. Complements clickhouse-best-practices with decision frameworks and explicit provenance labels.
Resumen
ClickHouse Architecture Advisor
This skill adds workload-aware architecture decisioning on top of clickhouse-best-practices.
Official docs remain the source of truth. This skill must always prefer official ClickHouse documentation when available.
Required behavior
Before producing recommendations:
- Identify the workload shape
- observability
- security / SIEM
- product analytics
- IoT / telemetry
- market data / financial services
- mixed OLAP with point-lookups
- Read the relevant decision rule files in
rules/ - Use
mappings/doc_links.yamlto attach official documentation - Classify every recommendation as:
officialderivedfield
- Never present field guidance as official guidance
- If a recommendation is uncertain, say so explicitly
Provenance rules
official
Use this when the recommendation is directly backed by official docs.
derived
Use this when the recommendation is not stated verbatim in docs but follows logically from documented ClickHouse behavior.
field
Use this only for experience-based guidance that may be situational. When using field, include:
- a disclaimer that the advice is heuristic
- a relevant official doc if one partially applies
- the reason the advice depends on workload context
Read these rule files by scenario
Real-time ingestion design
rules/decision-ingestion-strategy.mdrules/decision-real-time-preaggregation.md- Relevant best-practices insert rules
Time-series and retention design
rules/decision-partitioning-timeseries.md- Relevant best-practices schema partition rules
Enrichment and dimension lookups
rules/decision-join-enrichment.md- Relevant best-practices query join rules
Mutable state / late-arriving events
rules/decision-late-arriving-upserts.md- Relevant best-practices mutation avoidance rules
Output format
Structure responses like this:
## Workload Summary
- workload:
- latency target:
- data shape:
- primary query patterns:
- operational constraints:
## Key Decisions
- ...
- ...
## Recommendations
### <Recommendation title>
**What**
...
**Why**
...
**How**
...
**Category**
official | derived | field
**Confidence**
high | medium | heuristic
**Source**
- doc link(s)
**Validation**
- concrete SQL, metric, or smoke testArchitecture-specific guidance
Prefer decision frameworks over generic advice. Good responses should:
- explain tradeoffs
- identify the likely operating bottleneck
- separate immediate actions from structural redesign
- provide target architecture patterns, not just isolated settings

- clickhouse-best-practicesclickhouseMUST USE when reviewing ClickHouse schemas, queries, or configurations. Contains 31 rules that MUST be checked before providing recommendations. Always read relevant rule files and cite specific rules in responses.11.9 k instalaciones en skills.sh0
- chdb-sqlclickhouseUse when the user wants to run SQL — especially analytical SQL — on local files (parquet/csv/json), URLs, S3 paths, or remote databases (Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, ClickHouse Cloud, Iceberg, Delta Lake) without setting up a server. Provides chDB — embedded ClickHouse SQL in Python with 1000+ functions, Session for stateful multi-step pipelines, parametrized queries, and cross-source joins via `s3()`, `mysql()`, `postgresql()`, `iceberg()`, `deltaLake()`, `remoteSecure()` table functions. TRIGGER when: user wants SQL on parquet/csv/files or across remote analytical sources; uses ClickHouse SQL features (window functions, windowFunnel, geoToH3, JSON path ops, Session, parametrized queries); imports `chdb` or calls `chdb.query()`. SKIP this skill for pandas-style DataFrame method-chaining (use chdb-datastore instead) or ClickHouse server administration.7,900 instalaciones en skills.sh0
- chdb-datastoreclickhouseUse when the user has tabular data (pandas DataFrame, parquet, csv, Arrow, json) and wants to filter, group, aggregate, join, or speed up slow pandas. Provides chDB DataStore — same pandas API, ClickHouse engine underneath. Also handles reading from S3, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, ClickHouse Cloud, Iceberg, Delta Lake as DataFrames and joining across sources. TRIGGER when: user mentions DataFrame, parquet, csv, "fast pandas", "speed up pandas", or cross-source DataFrame joins; user imports `chdb.datastore` or `from datastore import DataStore`. SKIP this skill for raw SQL syntax (use chdb-sql instead), ClickHouse server administration, or non-Python DataStore API work.7,600 instalaciones en skills.sh0
- clickhouse-js-node-troubleshootingclickhouseTroubleshoot and resolve common issues with the ClickHouse Node.js client (@clickhouse/client). Use this skill whenever a user reports errors, unexpected behavior, or configuration questions involving the Node.js client specifically — including socket hang-up errors, Keep-Alive problems, stream handling issues, data type mismatches, read-only user restrictions, proxy/TLS setup problems, or long-running query timeouts. Trigger even when the user hasn't precisely named the issue; vague symptoms like "my inserts keep failing" or "connection drops randomly" in a Node.js context are strong signals to use this skill. Do NOT use for browser/Web client issues.7,300 instalaciones en skills.sh0
- clickhouse-js-node-codingclickhouseWrite idiomatic application code with the ClickHouse Node.js client (`@clickhouse/client`). Use this skill whenever a user is *building* against the Node.js client — configuring the client, pinging, inserting rows in JSON or raw formats, selecting and parsing results, binding query parameters, managing sessions and temporary tables, working with data types or customizing JSON parsing. Do NOT use for browser/Web client code.6,700 instalaciones en skills.sh0
