SQL Optimization Patterns

Transform slow database queries into lightning-fast operations through systematic optimization, proper indexing, and query plan analysis.

Use this skill when

  • Debugging slow-running queries

  • Designing performant database schemas

  • Optimizing application response times

  • Reducing database load and costs

  • Improving scalability for growing datasets

  • Analyzing EXPLAIN query plans

  • Implementing efficient indexes

  • Resolving N+1 query problems

    • Do not use this skill when

  • The task is unrelated to sql optimization patterns

  • You need a different domain or tool outside this scope

    • Instructions

  • Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.

  • Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.

  • Provide actionable steps and verification.

  • If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.
