Migrate Create

Generate a new database migration with sequential numbering and up/down SQL file pair.

When to use

When you need to create a new database migration for schema changes such as creating tables, adding columns, creating indexes, or modifying constraints.

Steps

  1. Determine next number -- use
    Glob
    to scan the migrations directory for existing migration files and find the highest number, then increment by 1 (zero-pad to 3 digits)
  2. Select template -- based on the
    <name>
    , choose the appropriate SQL template:
    • Names starting with
      create_
      -> CREATE TABLE template
    • Names starting with
      add_
      -> ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN template
    • Names starting with
      drop_
      -> DROP with safety checks
    • Names containing
      index
      -> CREATE INDEX template
    • Other -> generic migration template with placeholder comments
  3. Generate up migration -- write
    NNN_<name>.up.sql
    with the appropriate SQL using IF NOT EXISTS for idempotency
  4. Generate down migration -- write
    NNN_<name>.down.sql
    with the reverse operation using IF EXISTS
  5. Search patterns -- call
    mcp__claude-flow__agentdb_pattern-search
    to find similar past migrations for reference
  6. Store metadata -- call
    mcp__claude-flow__agentdb_hierarchical-store
    to record the migration in
    migrations
    namespace with number, name, status (pending), and file paths
  7. Report -- display: migration number, file paths created, template used, any similar past migrations found

CLI alternative

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest memory store --namespace migrations --key "migration-NNN_NAME" --value '{"number": NNN, "name": "NAME", "status": "pending"}'
