Catalyst NoSQL — key-value table store with typed items built via NoSQLItem builder. Partition key required. Trigger on 'NoSQL', 'nosql.table', 'insertItems', 'fetchItem', 'updateItems', 'deleteItems', 'queryTable', 'NoSQLItem', 'document storage', 'flexible schema', or 'Catalyst document database'. Do NOT use when you need SQL joins, ZCQL queries, or a fixed relational schema — use catalyst-datastore instead.

AI-generated overview

Guides Catalyst NoSQL key-value table operations and choosing NoSQL over the relational Data Store.

What it does
This skill explains how to work with Catalyst NoSQL, a key-value table store with typed items built through the NoSQLItem builder and a required partition key. It provides a decision matrix comparing Catalyst Data Store with Catalyst NoSQL, then directs the agent to a reference file for SDK operations such as insertItems, fetchItem, updateItems, deleteItems and queryTable. It produces SDK method calls with the correct table name, partition-key attribute and NoSQLItem construction.
When to use it
Use it for questions about Catalyst NoSQL, document storage, flexible or schemaless schemas, nested objects, or the listed SDK operations. It is also meant for deciding between Catalyst NoSQL and Catalyst Data Store. It should not be used when SQL joins, ZCQL queries or a fixed relational schema are required.
Requirements
No scripts; instructions only. It relies on a bundled reference file, references/nosql-basics.md, for SDK details. No credentials or network access are stated.

How It Works

  1. NoSQL vs Data Store — If the user is undecided, apply this matrix:

    Catalyst Data StoreCatalyst NoSQL
    SchemaFixed, defined upfrontFlexible, per-item (no uniform structure required)
    QueryZCQL (SQL-like joins and filters)Partition key + optional sort key
    Data typeStructured, relational rowsUnstructured/semi-structured, JSON-format
    PriorityACID compliance, complex queriesHigh scalability, high write throughput

    Rule: If the user says "ZCQL", "join", "relational", or "fixed schema" — stop and load catalyst-datastore instead.

  2. Load references/nosql-basics.md — for SDK operations (insertItems, fetchItem, updateItems, deleteItems, queryTable) and the NoSQLItem builder.

  3. Answer — Provide the SDK method call with the correct table name, partition-key attribute, and NoSQLItem construction.

Triggers

Use this skill for: "NoSQL", "document storage", nosql.table, insertItems, fetchItem, updateItems, deleteItems, queryTable, NoSQLItem, "NoSQL vs Data Store", "flexible schema", "Catalyst document database", "schemaless data on Catalyst", or "nested objects in Catalyst".
