grey-haven-database-conventions
Apply Grey Haven database conventions - snake_case fields, multi-tenant with tenant_id and RLS, proper indexing, migrations for Drizzle (TypeScript) and SQLModel (Python). Use when designing schemas, writing database code, creating migrations, setting up RLS policies, or when user mentions 'database', 'schema', 'Drizzle', 'SQLModel', 'migration', 'RLS', 'tenant_id', 'snake_case', 'indexes', or 'foreign keys'.

Grey Haven Database Conventions

Critical Rules
1. snake_case Fields (ALWAYS)
Database columns MUST use snake_case, never camelCase.
// ✅ CORRECT
export const users = pgTable("users", {
id: uuid("id").primaryKey().defaultRandom(),
created_at: timestamp("created_at").defaultNow().notNull(),
tenant_id: uuid("tenant_id").notNull(),
email_address: text("email_address").notNull(),
});
// ❌ WRONG - Don't use camelCase
export const users = pgTable("users", {
createdAt: timestamp("createdAt"), // WRONG!
tenantId: uuid("tenantId"), // WRONG!
});
2. tenant_id Required (Multi-Tenant)
Every table MUST include tenant_id for data isolation.
// TypeScript - Drizzle
export const organizations = pgTable("organizations", {
id: uuid("id").primaryKey().defaultRandom(),
tenant_id: uuid("tenant_id").notNull(), // REQUIRED
name: text("name").notNull(),
});
# Python - SQLModel
class Organization(SQLModel, table=True):
id: UUID = Field(default_factory=uuid4, primary_key=True)
tenant_id: UUID = Field(foreign_key="tenants.id", index=True) # REQUIRED
name: str = Field(max_length=255)
See examples/drizzle-schemas.md and examples/sqlmodel-schemas.md for complete examples.
3. Standard Timestamps
All tables must have created_at and updated_at.
// TypeScript - Reusable timestamps
export const baseTimestamps = {
created_at: timestamp("created_at").defaultNow().notNull(),
updated_at: timestamp("updated_at").defaultNow().notNull().$onUpdate(() => new Date()),
};
export const teams = pgTable("teams", {
id: uuid("id").primaryKey().defaultRandom(),
...baseTimestamps, // Spread operator
tenant_id: uuid("tenant_id").notNull(),
name: text("name").notNull(),
});
# Python - Mixin pattern
class TimestampMixin:
created_at: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow)
updated_at: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow, sa_column_kwargs={"onupdate": datetime.utcnow})
class Team(TimestampMixin, SQLModel, table=True):
id: UUID = Field(default_factory=uuid4, primary_key=True)
tenant_id: UUID = Field(index=True)
name: str = Field(max_length=255)
4. Row Level Security (RLS)
Enable RLS on all tables with tenant_id.
-- Enable RLS
ALTER TABLE users ENABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY;
-- Tenant isolation policy
CREATE POLICY "tenant_isolation" ON users
FOR ALL TO authenticated
USING (tenant_id = (current_setting('request.jwt.claims')::json->>'tenant_id')::uuid);
See examples/rls-policies.md for complete RLS patterns.
Quick Reference
Field Naming Patterns
Boolean fields: Prefix with is_, has_, can_
is_active: boolean("is_active")
has_access: boolean("has_access")
can_edit: boolean("can_edit")
Timestamp fields: Suffix with _at
created_at: timestamp("created_at")
updated_at: timestamp("updated_at")
deleted_at: timestamp("deleted_at")
last_login_at: timestamp("last_login_at")
Foreign keys: Suffix with _id
tenant_id: uuid("tenant_id")
user_id: uuid("user_id")
organization_id: uuid("organization_id")
See reference/field-naming.md for complete naming guide.
Indexing Patterns
Always index:
tenant_id(for multi-tenant queries)- Foreign keys (for joins)
- Unique constraints (email, slug)
- Frequently queried fields
// Composite index for tenant + lookup
export const usersIndex = index("users_tenant_email_idx").on(
users.tenant_id,
users.email_address
);
See reference/indexing.md for index strategies.
Relationships
One-to-many:
export const usersRelations = relations(users, ({ many }) => ({
posts: many(posts), // User has many posts
}));
export const postsRelations = relations(posts, ({ one }) => ({
author: one(users, { fields: [posts.user_id], references: [users.id] }),
}));
See reference/relationships.md for all relationship patterns.
Drizzle ORM (TypeScript)
Installation:
bun add drizzle-orm postgres
bun add -d drizzle-kit
Basic schema:
// db/schema.ts
import { pgTable, uuid, text, timestamp, boolean } from "drizzle-orm/pg-core";
export const users = pgTable("users", {
id: uuid("id").primaryKey().defaultRandom(),
created_at: timestamp("created_at").defaultNow().notNull(),
updated_at: timestamp("updated_at").defaultNow().notNull(),
tenant_id: uuid("tenant_id").notNull(),
email_address: text("email_address").notNull().unique(),
is_active: boolean("is_active").default(true).notNull(),
});
Generate migration:
bun run drizzle-kit generate:pg
bun run drizzle-kit push:pg
See examples/migrations.md for migration workflow.
SQLModel (Python)
Installation:
pip install sqlmodel psycopg2-binary
Basic model:
# app/models/user.py
from sqlmodel import Field, SQLModel
from uuid import UUID, uuid4
from datetime import datetime
class User(SQLModel, table=True):
__tablename__ = "users"
id: UUID = Field(default_factory=uuid4, primary_key=True)
created_at: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow)
updated_at: datetime = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow)
tenant_id: UUID = Field(foreign_key="tenants.id", index=True)
email_address: str = Field(unique=True, index=True, max_length=255)
is_active: bool = Field(default=True)
Generate migration:
alembic revision --autogenerate -m "Add users table"
alembic upgrade head
See examples/migrations.md for Alembic setup.

Template References
- TypeScript:
cvi-template(Drizzle ORM + PlanetScale) - Python:
cvi-backend-template(SQLModel + PostgreSQL)
Critical Reminders
- snake_case - ALL database fields use snake_case (never camelCase)
- tenant_id - Required on all tables for multi-tenant isolation
- Timestamps - created_at and updated_at on all tables
- RLS policies - Enable on all tables with tenant_id
- Indexing - Index tenant_id, foreign keys, and unique fields
- Migrations - Always use migrations (Drizzle Kit or Alembic)
- Field naming - Booleans use is_/has_/can_ prefix, timestamps use _at suffix
- No raw SQL - Use ORM for queries (prevents SQL injection)
- Soft deletes - Use deleted_at timestamp, not hard deletes
- Foreign keys - Always define relationships explicitly
Next Steps

- Need references? See reference/ for naming, indexing, relationships
- Need templates? See templates/ for copy-paste schema starters
- Need checklists? Use checklists/ for schema validation
