Query the DX Data Cloud PostgreSQL database using the mcp__dx-mcp-server__queryData tool.
Tool Usage
mcp__dx-mcp-server__queryData(sql: "SELECT ...")
Always query information_schema.columns first if uncertain about table/column names:
SELECT column_name, data_type FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_name = 'table_name' ORDER BY ordinal_position;
Critical: Team Tables
Three team table types exist - use the right one:
| Table | Use Case |
|---|---|
dx_teams |
Current org structure, linking users to teams for PR/deployment metrics |
dx_snapshot_teams |
Teams within DX survey snapshots (use for DX scores) |
dx_versioned_teams |
Historical team structure at specific dates |
For DX survey scores: Join through dx_snapshot_teams. Use GROUP BY to avoid duplicates (team names can appear multiple times across snapshot history):
SELECT st.name as team, i.name as metric, MAX(ts.score) as score, MAX(ts.vs_industry50) as vs_industry
FROM dx_snapshot_team_scores ts
JOIN dx_snapshot_teams st ON ts.snapshot_team_id = st.id
JOIN dx_snapshot_items i ON ts.item_id = i.id AND i.snapshot_id = ts.snapshot_id
WHERE ts.snapshot_id = (SELECT id FROM dx_snapshots ORDER BY end_date DESC LIMIT 1)
AND st.name = 'Your Team Name'
AND i.item_type = 'core4'
GROUP BY st.name, i.name;
For PR/deployment metrics by team: Join through dx_users to dx_teams:
SELECT t.name, COUNT(*) as prs
FROM pull_requests p
JOIN dx_users u ON p.dx_user_id = u.id
JOIN dx_teams t ON u.team_id = t.id
WHERE p.merged IS NOT NULL GROUP BY t.name;
Discovering Team Names
Query the database to find available teams:
SELECT name FROM dx_teams WHERE deleted_at IS NULL ORDER BY name;

AI-first code editor with Composer
1Prerequisites
Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
- ›Cursor installed and configured on your development machine
- ›Node.js version 16.0+ with npm package manager (verify with
node --version) - ›Active project directory or workspace where you want to add dx-data-navigator
2Execute installation command
Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
$npx skills add https://github.com/pskoett/pskoett-ai-skills --skill dx-data-navigatorThe skills CLI fetches dx-data-navigator from GitHub repository pskoett/pskoett-ai-skills and configures it for Cursor.
3Select Cursor when prompted
The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:
◆ Which agents do you want to install to?││ ── Universal (.agents/skills) ── always included ────│ • Amp│ • Antigravity│ • Cline│ • Codex│ ●Cursor(selected)│ • Cursor│ • Windsurf4Verify installation
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
.cursor/skills/dx-data-navigatorReload or restart Cursor to activate dx-data-navigator. Access the skill through slash commands (e.g., /dx-data-navigator) or your agent's skill management interface.
⚠Security & Verification Notice
We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.
Skills execute code in your development environment. Always verify the publisher's identity, review recent commits, and test in isolated environments before production deployment.

GET_STARTED →Use Cases▌
User Story & Requirements Generation
Create detailed user stories, acceptance criteria, and feature specs
Example
Generate user stories for 'password reset feature' with acceptance criteria, edge cases, and test scenarios
✓Reduce spec writing time by 50%, ensure comprehensive coverage
Competitive Analysis
Research competitors, compare features, identify gaps
Example
Analyze 5 competitor products, create feature comparison matrix, suggest differentiation opportunities
✓Complete competitive research in 2 hours instead of 2 days
Roadmap Prioritization
Evaluate features using frameworks (RICE, ICE, Kano) and create prioritized backlogs
Example
Score 20 feature ideas using RICE framework, generate prioritized roadmap with rationale
✓Make data-driven prioritization decisions faster
Stakeholder Communication
Draft PRDs, status updates, and stakeholder presentations
Example
Create executive summary of Q3 roadmap, monthly progress report, feature launch announcement
✓Save 3-5 hours/week on communication overhead
Implementation Guide▌
Prerequisites
- ›Claude Desktop or compatible AI client
- ›Access to product documentation and roadmap tools (Jira, Notion, etc.)
- ›Understanding of product management frameworks (RICE, Jobs-to-be-Done, etc.)
- ›Stakeholder contact information and communication channels
Time Estimate
30-60 minutes to see productivity improvements
Installation Steps
- 1.Install product management skill
- 2.Start with user story generation for known feature
- 3.Progress to competitive analysis: research 2-3 competitors
- 4.Use for roadmap prioritization: apply RICE/ICE scoring
- 5.Draft stakeholder communications and refine based on feedback
- 6.Build template library for recurring PM tasks
- 7.Share effective prompts with product team
Common Pitfalls
- ⚠Not validating competitive research—verify facts before sharing
- ⚠Accepting user stories without involving engineering team
- ⚠Over-relying on frameworks without qualitative judgment
- ⚠Not customizing outputs to company culture and communication style
- ⚠Skipping stakeholder validation of generated requirements
Best Practices▌
✓ Do
- +Validate research and competitive analysis with real data
- +Collaborate with engineering when generating technical requirements
- +Customize frameworks and templates to your company context
- +Use skill for first drafts, refine with stakeholder input
- +Document successful prompt patterns for PM tasks
- +Combine AI efficiency with human judgment and intuition
✗ Don't
- −Don't publish competitive analysis without fact-checking
- −Don't finalize user stories without engineering review
- −Don't make prioritization decisions solely on AI scoring
- −Don't skip customer validation of generated requirements
- −Don't ignore company-specific context and culture
💡 Pro Tips
- ★Provide context: company goals, constraints, customer feedback
- ★Ask for alternatives: 'Show 3 ways to prioritize this roadmap'
- ★Request stakeholder-specific formatting: 'Executive summary vs. engineering spec'
- ★Use skill for 70% generation + 30% customization to company needs
When to Use This▌
✓ Use When
Use for user story writing, competitive research, roadmap prioritization, stakeholder communication, and PRD drafting. Best for reducing repetitive documentation and research work.
✗ Avoid When
Avoid for strategic product vision (requires deep customer empathy), pricing decisions (needs market and financial expertise), or when face-to-face customer discovery is more valuable than speed.
