Driving Innovation in MySQL with Extensions
summary
A new Village SQL extension framework (VAF) ships as an alpha with versions up to 0.0.4 and adds custom types, custom functions, column storage, config vars, background threads, keyring access and status variables; a Prometheus exporter from ProxySQL and an AI extension (prompting + embeddings) already exist. A seven‑phase auto porting skill uses Claude/Gemini/Codex to translate Postgres extensions (demo: Hstore) into MySQL in ~35–45 minutes, producing MTR tests and GitHub issues. A Rust SDK and cargo install run extensions dynamically with replication, crash recovery and transactional semantics ensured.
