simba-skills releases six skills to prevent AI from mistakenly operating on production environments
Understand this story
simbaTmotsi has open-sourced simba-skills on GitHub, containing six Claude Code skills designed to prevent AI coding agents from writing to production databases during testing, migration, or deployment. The suite targets users who run applications on their own servers (Docker, Postgres, VPS) and use AI agents such as Claude Code on the same machine; only one installation method can be chosen, otherwise each skill will be installed twice. The server and deployment skills assume the use of Docker Compose and Postgres, and will adapt to the project's existing deployment scripts. The author states that this toolset is small in scale (based on Claude Code 2.1.323 from November 2026) and should be regarded as a basic check rather than a benchmark test.

A plugin called simba-skills offers six Claude Code skills for people running Docker, Postgres and a VPS on the same machine as their AI agent, aimed at preventing test runs, repro loops or deploys from hitting live data. Skills include production-safe-loops (automatic), lint-project-skills, report-skill-failure, safe-deploy, server-maintenance and audit-claude-settings, with deploy, delete and settings-changing skills requiring manual invocation. The repo includes an eval suite (Claude Code 2.1.323, November 2026) and is MIT licensed.
