Can it help with database maintenance?

Absolutely. It provides commands for managing table bloat, scheduling VACUUM and ANALYZE operations, and monitoring autovacuum health.

What configuration settings does it optimize?

It covers critical PostgreSQL settings including shared_buffers, effective_cache_size, work_mem, and parallel worker settings tailored to your server's RAM.

Does it support connection pooling configuration?

Yes, it includes ready-to-use patterns for PgBouncer (transaction mode) and application-level pooling using libraries like pg-pool for Node.js.

How does this skill help identify slow queries?

The skill provides Claude with specific templates for EXPLAIN ANALYZE and pg_stat_statements to find long-running queries and interpret execution plans for bottlenecks like Seq Scans.
