If the regenerated local skill output under `.agents/skills/<skill-id>/SKILL.md` changes for a skill described in that file, execute only the listed prompt for that changed skill and verify the acceptance test passes. Do not execute prompts for unchanged skills or run the full prompt inventory by default.

+## Context
+
+Issue #895 asks maintainers to improve Flyway skills for all supported frameworks so users receive better advice when adding database migration files. The issue specifically calls for:
+
+- A Flyway antipatterns reference.
+- A Flyway techniques reference that explains Parallel Change.
+- Flyway tests to avoid out-of-order migrations in different branches.
+- Ideas from the linked migration-risk discussion, including subtle schema changes that can damage or misinterpret data.
+
+The repository already has separate Flyway skills for Spring Boot, Quarkus, and Micronaut. The implementation should keep each framework's setup guidance local while adding shared migration-safety concepts consistently.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Target Skill References
+
+Update the three framework-specific Flyway reference XML files and add two focused supplemental references for each framework:
+
+- `313-frameworks-spring-db-migrations-flyway.xml`
+- `313-frameworks-spring-db-migrations-flyway-antipatterns.xml`
+- `313-frameworks-spring-db-migrations-flyway-parallel-change.xml`
+- `413-frameworks-quarkus-db-migrations-flyway.xml`
+- `413-frameworks-quarkus-db-migrations-flyway-antipatterns.xml`
+- `413-frameworks-quarkus-db-migrations-flyway-parallel-change.xml`
+- `513-frameworks-micronaut-db-migrations-flyway.xml`
+- `513-frameworks-micronaut-db-migrations-flyway-antipatterns.xml`
+- `513-frameworks-micronaut-db-migrations-flyway-parallel-change.xml`
+
+No new skill id is required. The improvement belongs inside the existing framework-specific Flyway skills.
+
+### Antipattern Guidance
+
+Each Flyway skill should include a dedicated antipattern reference that helps agents identify risky migrations before recommending SQL changes.
+
+The guidance should cover:
+
+- Drop-and-add column changes when the intent is a rename.
+- Type narrowing and column length reduction without checking existing data.
+- `NOT NULL` defaults that assign incorrect business meaning to historical rows.
+- Default-value changes that alter future-row behavior unexpectedly.
+- Dropping and recreating tables, relationship tables, constraints, or indexes when data must be preserved.
+- Enum/status meaning changes without an application compatibility plan.
+- Timestamp and timezone type changes without verifying interpretation of existing values.
+- Destructive repeatable migrations that rerun when checksums change.
+- Broad data updates without precise `WHERE` clauses and expected row counts.
+- Unique/index changes without duplicate detection and cleanup strategy.
+- Duplicate version numbers, branch-ordering assumptions, and out-of-order migrations in different branches.
+- Treating `outOfOrder=true` as a default branch-conflict fix rather than an exceptional operational decision.
+
+### Parallel Change Technique
+
+Each Flyway skill should include a dedicated Parallel Change reference that explains the technique as a database migration workflow:
+
+- Expand: add the new column, table, index, or constraint in a backward-compatible way while the old schema shape still works.
+- Migrate: backfill or dual-write data, update reads safely, and verify both old and new paths during rollout.
+- Contract: remove the old column, table, or access path only after all deployed code and data have moved to the new shape.
+
+The examples should apply the technique to Flyway scenarios such as column renames, type changes, large-table backfills, and relationship-table changes. Prefer multiple small forward-only migrations over one destructive migration.
+
+### Testing Guidance
+
+The Flyway skills should add migration test expectations beyond application startup:
+
+- Run the full Flyway chain from an empty database using the real production dialect when feasible.
+- Run migration tests from a previous-release schema or data snapshot for risky changes.
+- Assert data preservation for renames, backfills, defaults, enum/status changes, and timezone changes.
+- Add branch-ordering checks in CI to detect duplicate versions and unsafe out-of-order assumptions.
+- Prefer Testcontainers or framework-native real-database test support over H2 when production uses PostgreSQL, MySQL, or another specific dialect.
+
+### Source and Generated Output Boundaries
+
+Implementation must edit XML sources under `skills-generator/src/main/resources/skill-references/`, update `skills-generator/src/main/resources/skills.xml` so the new references are registered, and update the relevant skill index workflow steps so agents read the main, antipatterns, and Parallel Change references. Generated `.agents/skills` output should be regenerated for local validation only. Public `skills/` release output should not be refreshed unless a later release task explicitly requests it.
+
+## Validation Strategy
+
+- Validate changed XML files with `xmllint --noout`.
+- Run `./mvnw clean install -pl skills-generator` to regenerate local skills into `.agents/skills` without refreshing public `skills/`.
+- Inspect generated local Flyway skills:
+  - `.agents/skills/313-frameworks-spring-db-migrations-flyway/SKILL.md`
+  - `.agents/skills/413-frameworks-quarkus-db-migrations-flyway/SKILL.md`
+  - `.agents/skills/513-frameworks-micronaut-db-migrations-flyway/SKILL.md`
+- Check `skills-generator/src/test/resources/gherkin/skills/acceptance-tests-prompts-skills.md` before promoting. Run only listed prompts for changed skills if any are present.
+- Run `./mvnw clean verify -pl skills-generator`.
+- Run `openspec validate --all`.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+None for the OpenSpec planning scope. Exact wording and example SQL can be refined during XML implementation while preserving the issue requirements.

+## Why
+
+GitHub issue [#895](https://github.com/jabrena/cursor-rules-java/issues/895) requests stronger Flyway guidance across the framework-specific skills. The current Spring Boot, Quarkus, and Micronaut Flyway skills cover dependency setup, script locations, naming, configuration, and basic verification, but they need more explicit advice about migration antipatterns, production data safety, branch-ordering risks, and incremental database-change techniques.
+
+Maintainers need these skills to help users avoid subtle schema and data migration failures such as destructive renames, unsafe defaults, broad updates, repeatable migration surprises, and out-of-order branch migrations.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add Flyway antipattern guidance to the Spring Boot, Quarkus, and Micronaut Flyway skill references.
+- Add Flyway technique guidance explaining Martin Fowler's Parallel Change pattern as an expand, migrate, contract strategy for database migrations.
+- Add testing guidance that verifies real migration behavior, data preservation, and branch-ordering safety.
+- Keep the change scoped to XML skill source updates and local generated skill validation; public `skills/` release output remains out of scope unless a release profile is intentionally run later.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `flyway-migration-skill-guidance`: Adds cross-framework Flyway migration safety guidance.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+None.
+
+## Source and Derivation
+
+- Source artifact: GitHub issue [#895](https://github.com/jabrena/cursor-rules-java/issues/895).
+- Existing implementation targets:
+  - `skills-generator/src/main/resources/skill-references/313-frameworks-spring-db-migrations-flyway.xml`
+  - `skills-generator/src/main/resources/skill-references/413-frameworks-quarkus-db-migrations-flyway.xml`
+  - `skills-generator/src/main/resources/skill-references/513-frameworks-micronaut-db-migrations-flyway.xml`
+- Supporting context from issue #895:
+  - ChatGPT share about subtle Flyway data migration risks.
+  - Martin Fowler's Parallel Change article.
+  - Requirement to include Flyway tests to avoid out-of-order migrations in different branches.
+- Derivation direction: issue #895 -> OpenSpec change artifacts -> XML skill source implementation -> local generated skill validation.
+
+## Change Boundary Assessment
+
+This is one OpenSpec change because the issue describes one reviewable outcome: improve Flyway migration guidance consistently across all framework-specific Flyway skills. Although three XML reference files are affected, they share the same value, review boundary, and validation path.
+
+The change is not split by framework because that would create one-change-per-file decomposition without independent user value.
+
+## Impact
+
+XML skill references, local generated `.agents/skills` output, and OpenSpec artifacts are affected. Generated `.cursor/rules/`, public `skills/`, and `docs/` must not be edited directly. Public `skills/` should only change through the documented release profile when release output is intentionally in scope.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Cross-framework Flyway migration safety guidance
+
+The repository MUST improve the Spring Boot, Quarkus, and Micronaut Flyway skills with guidance that helps users avoid data-loss and production-safety migration mistakes.
+
+#### Scenario: Framework Flyway skills include migration antipattern guidance
+
+- **GIVEN** maintainers update the framework-specific Flyway skill references
+- **WHEN** the generated local Flyway skills are inspected
+- **THEN** `313-frameworks-spring-db-migrations-flyway` includes Flyway antipattern guidance
+- **AND** `413-frameworks-quarkus-db-migrations-flyway` includes Flyway antipattern guidance
+- **AND** `513-frameworks-micronaut-db-migrations-flyway` includes Flyway antipattern guidance
+- **AND** the guidance addresses data-loss and data-misinterpretation risks in migration files
+
+#### Scenario: Flyway antipattern guidance covers risky schema and data changes
+
+- **GIVEN** a user asks for help adding or reviewing a Flyway migration
+- **WHEN** a Flyway skill identifies migration risks
+- **THEN** it warns about drop-and-add renames, type narrowing, column length reduction, unsafe `NOT NULL` defaults, default-value changes, destructive table or relationship-table rewrites, enum/status meaning changes, timestamp/timezone changes, destructive repeatable migrations, broad updates without precise `WHERE` clauses, and unique/index changes without duplicate checks
+- **AND** it recommends checking existing production-like data before applying migrations that can lose, truncate, overwrite, or reinterpret data
+
+### Requirement: Branch-ordering and out-of-order migration testing
+
+The Flyway skills MUST include testing guidance that helps detect branch-ordering problems before migration files reach shared environments.
+
+#### Scenario: Detect out-of-order migrations from different branches
+
+- **GIVEN** multiple branches may add Flyway migration files concurrently
+- **WHEN** the skill recommends migration verification
+- **THEN** it includes tests or checks that detect duplicate version numbers
+- **AND** it includes tests or checks that detect migrations that assume another branch migration already ran
+- **AND** it includes tests or checks that avoid unsafe out-of-order migration behavior in different branches
+- **AND** it treats `outOfOrder=true` as an exceptional operational decision rather than a default branch-conflict fix
+
+### Requirement: Parallel Change technique guidance
+
+The Flyway skills MUST explain Parallel Change as a database migration technique for backward-compatible schema evolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Explain expand, migrate, contract
+
+- **GIVEN** a migration changes schema shape or data interpretation
+- **WHEN** a Flyway skill recommends a safer migration technique
+- **THEN** it explains the Expand step as adding the new column, table, index, or constraint in a backward-compatible way while the old shape still works
+- **AND** it explains the Migrate step as backfilling or dual-writing data, updating reads safely, and verifying old and new paths during rollout
+- **AND** it explains the Contract step as removing the old column, table, or access path only after all deployed code and data have moved to the new shape
+- **AND** it applies the technique to Flyway scenarios such as column renames, type changes, large-table backfills, or relationship-table changes
+
+### Requirement: Migration verification beyond application startup
+
+The Flyway skills MUST recommend verification that proves migration behavior and data preservation, not only that the application context starts.
+
+#### Scenario: Verify real migration chain and data preservation
+
+- **GIVEN** a Flyway migration changes schema or data
+- **WHEN** the skill recommends tests
+- **THEN** it recommends running the full Flyway chain from an empty database using the real production dialect when feasible
+- **AND** it recommends running risky migrations from a previous-release schema or data snapshot
+- **AND** it recommends assertions for data preservation across renames, backfills, defaults, enum/status changes, timezone changes, repeatable migrations, broad updates, and unique/index changes
+- **AND** it prefers Testcontainers or framework-native real-database test support over H2 when production uses a specific SQL dialect
+
+### Requirement: Source and generated-output boundaries
+
+The implementation MUST edit XML sources and validate generated local skill output without directly editing generated legacy or release outputs.
+
+#### Scenario: Preserve generated-output ownership
+
+- **WHEN** implementation files are reviewed
+- **THEN** `.cursor/rules/` is not edited directly
+- **AND** public `skills/` release output is not edited manually
+- **AND** public `skills/` is refreshed only through the release profile when release output is intentionally in scope
