Help developers build third-party tools that import, inspect, migrate, or analyze DeepChat data. Use when Codex needs to work with DeepChat provider configuration, model configuration, MCP/app settings, sessions, messages, legacy chat data, `agent.db`, `chat.db`, SQLCipher encrypted SQLite, Electron safeStorage wrapped passwords, Tauri importers, or native macOS/Windows/Linux data access.

Must explain what the skill does, what problem it solves, when to use it. We need to ensure it's 2-3 sentences, plain text, no formatting. Let's craft about 45-55 words. Possible summary: "This skill enables developers to create tools that import, inspect, migrate, or analyze DeepChat local data such as SQLite databases, encrypted files, and configuration settings.
DeepChat Data Import
Overview
Use this skill to design or implement importers for DeepChat local data. Treat DeepChat's SQLite
schema as an internal but documentable contract: inspect the current schema when precision matters,
prefer read-only snapshots, and avoid writing to a live profile.
Workflow
- Identify the source: live DeepChat profile, copied profile, sync backup, exported
agent.db, or
legacychat.db. - Read references/data-locations.md to locate
agent.db,
sidecar files, encryption metadata, and backup paths. - Read references/sqlite-access.md before opening SQLite. Decide
whether the database is unencrypted, can be unlocked through Electron safeStorage, or must ask
the user for the SQLite password. - Read references/schema-reference.md for provider config,
settings, session, message, and legacy table relationships. - Read references/import-recipes.md when writing extractor code,
mapping DeepChat data to another app, or creating a compatibility import.
Safety Rules
- Get explicit user consent before reading local DeepChat data. Provider keys, OAuth tokens, MCP
env vars, prompt text, message traces, and chat content may be sensitive. - Never open the active
agent.dbread-write from a third-party tool. Copyagent.db,agent.db-wal, andagent.db-shm, or use SQLite backup APIs through DeepChat itself. - If DeepChat is running, either ask the user to quit it or make a WAL-aware snapshot before import.
- Prefer parameterized key APIs for SQLCipher passwords. Do not interpolate passwords into SQL.
- Redact secrets by default in logs, telemetry, previews, and generated sample output.
- When the schema has changed, inspect
schema_versions,sqlite_master, and the table classes
undersrc/main/presenter/sqlitePresenter/tables/before assuming column availability.
