Use the PlanetScale CLI (pscale) from automated agents with --format json, auth check, pscale sql, and per-command --force. Run before other PlanetScale skills when driving pscale directly. Use when the user asks to automate pscale, run CLI commands headless, or verify pscale auth from an agent.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/planetscale/claude-plugin /tmp/claude-plugin && ln -s /tmp/claude-plugin/planetscale-skills/14-pscale-cli-automation ~/.claude/skills/planetscale-pscale-cli-automation
```

## From README

PlanetScale CLI automation Purpose Teach agents how to invoke pscale non-interactively. This skill covers CLI conventions only. Operational workflows (inventory, safety review, schema recommendations) use the other skills in this repo — start with ../00-safe-orchestrator/SKILL.md for a full assessment. Two AGENTS.md files (do not confuse them) | Document | Where | Purpose | |----------|-------|---------| | CLI agent guide | Shipped with pscale (AGENTS.md in the CLI repo, or pscale agent-guide) | How to call pscale: auth, --format json, flag placement, pscale sql | | Project agent guide | Your application repository's AGENTS.md | Which org, database, branch, engine, prod branch, MCP scope, approval rules | Do not edit project AGENTS.md without operator approval (see ../09-mcp-agent-operating-model/SKILL.md). Bootstrap (always start here) If auth check returns "status": "actionrequired", follow issues and nextsteps in the JSON.
