"""SQLite-based metadata storage for repositories and skills.
Design Decision: SQLite Replacement for JSON Storage
Rationale: Migrating from JSON to SQLite provides O(1) indexed lookups,
transaction safety, and relational queries without adding external dependencies
(sqlite3 is in Python standard library).
Trade-offs:
- Performance: O(1) indexed queries vs. O(n) JSON linear scans
- Complexity: Slightly more code than JSON, but standard SQL patterns
- Dependencies: None (sqlite3 is stdlib)
- Migration: Automatic migration from JSON preserves backward compatibility
Scalability: Handles 10K+ repositories efficiently. For >100K repositories,
consider connection pooling and read replicas.
Error Handling:
- IntegrityError: Duplicate primary keys or foreign key violations
- OperationalError: Database locked, disk full, corrupted database
- All operations use transactions for atomicity
