SurrealDB 3 Skill

Expert-level SurrealDB 3 architecture, development, and operations. Covers SurrealQL, multi-model data modeling, graph traversal, vector search, security, deployment, performance tuning, SDK integration, and the full SurrealDB ecosystem.

For AI Agents

Get a full capabilities manifest, decision trees, and output contracts: uv run {baseDir}/scripts/onboard.py --agent See AGENTS.md for the complete structured briefing.

Prerequisites

surreal CLI -- brew install surrealdb/tap/surreal (macOS) or see install docs Python 3.10+ -- Required for skill scripts uv -- brew install uv (macOS) or pip install uv or see uv docs Optional: Docker -- For containerized SurrealDB instances (docker run surrealdb/surrealdb:v3) SDK of choice -- JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, Java, .NET, C, PHP, or Dart Security note: This skill's documentation references package manager installs (brew, pip, cargo, npm, Docker) as the recommended install method. If you encounter curl | sh examples in the rules files, prefer your OS package manager or download-and-review workflow instead.

Quick Start

Credential warning: Examples below use root/root for local development only. Never use default credentials against production or shared instances. Create scoped, least-privilege users for non-local environments. # Start SurrealDB in-memory for LOCAL DEVELOPMENT ONLY surreal start memory --user root --pass root --bind 127.0.0.1:8000 # Start with persistent RocksDB storage (local dev) surreal start rocksdb://data/mydb.db --user root --pass root # Start with SurrealKV (time-travel queries supported, local dev) surreal start surrealkv://data/mydb --user root --pass root # Connect via CLI REPL (local dev) surreal sql --endpoint http://localhost:8000 --user root --pass root --ns test --db test # Import a SurrealQL file surreal import --endpoint http://localhost:8000 --user root --pass root --ns test --db test schema.surql # Export the database surreal export --endpoint http://localhost:8000 --user root --pass root --ns test --db test backup.surql # Check version surreal version # Run the skill health check uv run {baseDir}/scripts/doctor.py

Environment Variables

SurrealQL Mastery

Full coverage of the SurrealQL query language: CREATE, SELECT, UPDATE, UPSERT, DELETE, RELATE, INSERT, LIVE SELECT, DEFINE, REMOVE, INFO, subqueries, transactions, futures, and all built-in functions (array, crypto, duration, geo, math, meta, object, parse, rand, string, time, type, vector). See: rules/surrealql.md

Multi-Model Data Modeling

Design schemas that leverage SurrealDB's multi-model capabilities -- document collections, graph edges, relational references, vector embeddings, time-series data, and geospatial coordinates -- all in a single database with a single query language. See: rules/data-modeling.md

Graph Queries

First-class graph traversal without JOINs. RELATE creates typed edges between records. Traverse with -> (outgoing), <- (incoming), and <-> (bidirectional) operators. Filter, aggregate, and recurse at any depth. See: rules/graph-queries.md

Vector Search

Built-in vector similarity search using HNSW and brute-force indexes. Define vector fields, create indexes with configurable distance metrics (cosine, euclidean, manhattan, minkowski), and query with vector::similarity::* functions. Build RAG pipelines and semantic search directly in SurrealQL. See: rules/vector-search.md

Security and Permissions

Row-level security via DEFINE TABLE ... PERMISSIONS, namespace/database/record-level access control, DEFINE ACCESS for JWT/token-based auth, DEFINE USER for system users, and $auth/$session runtime variables for permission predicates. See: rules/security.md

Deployment and Operations

Single-binary deployment, Docker, Kubernetes (Helm charts), storage engine selection (memory, RocksDB, SurrealKV, TiKV for distributed), backup/restore, monitoring, and production hardening. See: rules/deployment.md

Performance Tuning

Index strategies (unique, search, vector HNSW, MTree), query optimization with EXPLAIN, connection pooling, storage engine trade-offs, batch operations, and resource limits. See: rules/performance.md

SDK Integration

Official SDKs for JavaScript/TypeScript (Node.js, Deno, Bun, browser), Python, Go, Rust, Java, .NET, C, PHP, and Dart. Connection protocols (HTTP, WebSocket), authentication flows, live query subscriptions, and typed record handling. See: rules/sdks.md

Surrealism WASM Extensions

New in SurrealDB 3: extend the database with custom functions, analyzers, and logic written in Rust and compiled to WASM. Define, deploy, and manage Surrealism modules. See: rules/surrealism.md

Ecosystem Tools

Surrealist -- Official IDE and GUI for SurrealDB (schema designer, query editor, graph visualizer) Surreal-Sync -- Change Data Capture (CDC) for migrations from other databases SurrealFS -- AI agent filesystem built on SurrealDB SurrealML -- Machine learning model management and inference within SurrealDB See: rules/surrealist.md, rules/surreal-sync.md, rules/surrealfs.md

Doctor / Health Check

# Full diagnostic (Rich output on stderr, JSON on stdout) uv run {baseDir}/scripts/doctor.py # Quick check (exit code 0 = healthy, 1 = issues found) uv run {baseDir}/scripts/doctor.py --check # Check a specific endpoint uv run {baseDir}/scripts/doctor.py --endpoint http://my-server:8000 The doctor script verifies: surreal CLI installed and on PATH, server reachable, authentication succeeds, namespace and database exist, version compatibility, and storage engine status.

Schema Introspection

# Full schema dump (all tables, fields, indexes, events, accesses) uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py introspect # List tables with summary uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py tables # Inspect a specific table uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py table <table_name> # Export schema as SurrealQL (reproducible DEFINE statements) uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py export --format surql # Export schema as JSON uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py export --format json Introspection uses INFO FOR DB, INFO FOR TABLE, and INFO FOR NS to reconstruct the full schema.

Import initial schema surreal import --endpoint http://localhost:8000 --user root --pass root \ --ns myapp --db production schema.surql # 5. Introspect to verify uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py introspect

Migration from SurrealDB v2

# 1. Export v2 data surreal export --endpoint http://old-server:8000 --user root --pass root \ --ns myapp --db production v2-backup.surql # 2. Review breaking changes (see rules/surrealql.md v2->v3 migration section) # Key changes: range syntax 1..4 is now exclusive of end, new WASM extension system # 3. Import into v3 surreal import --endpoint http://localhost:8000 --user root --pass root \ --ns myapp --db production v2-backup.surql # 4. Verify schema uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py introspect

Data Modeling for a New Domain

# 1. Read rules/data-modeling.md for schema design patterns # 2. Read rules/graph-queries.md if your domain has relationships # 3. Read rules/vector-search.md if you need semantic search # 4. Draft schema.surql with DEFINE TABLE, DEFINE FIELD, DEFINE INDEX # 5. Import and test surreal import --endpoint http://localhost:8000 --user root --pass root \ --ns dev --db test schema.surql uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py introspect

Deploying to Production

# 1. Read rules/deployment.md for storage engine selection and hardening # 2. Read rules/security.md for access control setup # 3. Read rules/performance.md for index strategy # 4. Run doctor against production endpoint uv run {baseDir}/scripts/doctor.py --endpoint https://prod-surreal:8000 # 5. Verify schema matches expectations uv run {baseDir}/scripts/schema.py introspect --endpoint https://prod-surreal:8000

Upstream Source Check

# Check if upstream SurrealDB repos have changed since this skill was built uv run {baseDir}/scripts/check_upstream.py # JSON-only output for agents uv run {baseDir}/scripts/check_upstream.py --json # Only show repos that have new commits uv run {baseDir}/scripts/check_upstream.py --stale Compares current HEAD SHAs and release tags of all tracked repos against the baselines in SOURCES.json.

Source Provenance

This skill was built on 2026-02-19 from these upstream sources: RepositoryReleaseSnapshot Datesurrealdb/surrealdbv3.0.02026-02-19surrealdb/surrealistv3.7.22026-02-21surrealdb/surrealdb.jsv1.3.22026-02-20surrealdb/surrealdb.js (v2 beta)v2.0.0-beta.12026-02-20surrealdb/surrealdb.pyv1.0.82026-02-03surrealdb/surrealdb.gov1.3.02026-02-12surrealdb/surreal-syncv0.3.42026-02-12surrealdb/surrealfs--2026-01-29 Documentation: surrealdb.com/docs snapshot 2026-02-22. Machine-readable provenance: SOURCES.json.

Output Convention

All Python scripts in this skill follow a dual-output pattern: stderr: Rich-formatted human-readable output (tables, panels, status indicators) stdout: Machine-readable JSON for programmatic consumption by AI agents This means 2>/dev/null hides the human output, and piping stdout gives clean JSON for downstream processing.

Category context

Code helpers, APIs, CLIs, browser automation, testing, and developer operations.
