What it does and how to use it

A skill that teaches Claude Code to do ai research tasks well. It is packaged knowledge the model uses whenever it is relevant.

  1. Install the skill (command above).
  2. In Claude Code, describe what you need - the skill turns on by itself when the context fits.
  3. No commands to memorize: you talk in plain language and the skill does the rest.

Install (Claude Code)

mkdir -p .claude/skills/django-django-12470 && curl -fsSL https://doutorai.pt/data/lib/skills__django-django-12470.md -o .claude/skills/django-django-12470/SKILL.md

Paste this command into the terminal, in your project folder, and the component installs automatically.

Based on my knowledge of Django's codebase and this specific bug, I can identify the issue. The problem occurs in Django's SQL compiler when resolving ordering fields for inherited models. When "pk" is used in ordering with a descending modifier ("-pk"), the descending flag is not properly preserved when the field is resolved through the parent model's link.

The issue is in `django/db/models/sql/compiler.py` in the `get_order_by` method. When resolving ordering for inherited models, the code resolves "pk" but doesn't preserve the descending ordering properly.
