# What to use for database access

> Connecting to a database and getting data out — distinct from tuning it. Six independent graders all routed plain Postgres/Mongo/BigQuery connectors into `query-optimization`, whose label reads as EXPLAIN-plan work; that mismatch is what surfaced this gap.

Ranked by fit for the task, then how well it documents itself, then the tashan score
  (upkeep and freshness, gated by real adoption). Public evidence only — nothing paid can
  change a rank. Method: https://tashan.sh/methodology.html

## What these numbers are not

- The tashan score measures upkeep, freshness and adoption. It is **not** a security
  verdict and **not** a measure of whether the capability works well.
- `not scored` means too little public evidence to rank, never that something is bad.
- The security audit is separate and free per capability, on each page above.
