Summary:  
Add an explicit way to target a non-`public` PostgreSQL schema for checkpoint tables and queries in the **Python** `langgraph-checkpoint-postgres` package (`PostgresSaver` / `AsyncPostgresSaver`), similar to langgraph JS checkpointer implementation, PR [feat(checkpoint-postgres): Add support for providing a custom schema during initialization by nick-w-nick · Pull Request #838 · langchain-ai/langgraphjs · GitHub](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langgraphjs/pull/838)

**Motivation / problem:**  
Today, migrations and DML use **unqualified** table names (`checkpoints`, `checkpoint_blobs`, `checkpoint_writes`, `checkpoint_migrations`). Enterprise deployments often require **isolated schemas per service or tenant**. Currently we can achieve it through search\_path, but it needs careful design of handling connection through pool which can leads to error and can cause data leakage.

It’s a good feature request, would recommend you open it on official repo of Langgraph: [GitHub - langchain-ai/langgraph: Build resilient language agents as graphs. · GitHub](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langgraph)
