In their own words

LLMSchema

LLMSchema is free, MIT-licensed software that generates database schema documentation for LLMs and AI agents. It extracts relational schemas from PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite, then documents tables, columns, types, indexes, constraints, and relationships in Markdown. The default output is one portable Markdown document. An alternate layout creates an overview plus a separate Markdown file for each table. Users can include selected tables or exclude tables from the generated documentation. LLMSchema is available as a command-line tool and a Go library, with installation instructions for Go and a quick install script for macOS and Linux. The README shows adding schema generation to a Makefile or migration script to keep documentation current. It also suggests pointing a coding agent to the schema files from AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or an equivalent instruction file. The project is self-hosted and listed for Linux, macOS, and Windows. Its maker positions it for development databases and says not to rely on it for production-critical documentation.
