How do I start monitoring my database transactions?

You can trigger the skill by asking Claude to 'monitor database transactions' or 'check for long-running queries'. It will then use the /txn-monitor command to provide a real-time status update.

Does it support custom alerting thresholds?

The skill follows best practices by allowing you to configure specific thresholds for transaction duration and lock wait times to ensure alerts are relevant to your specific environment.

What kind of database anomalies can it detect?

It detects long-running transactions, high rollback rates (which may indicate application errors), and excessive lock contention that could lead to performance degradation.

Can this skill help identify deadlocks?

Yes, the skill specifically analyzes lock wait times and patterns to help you identify and resolve deadlock contention within your database.

Analytics & Monitoring

Monitors database transactions in real-time to detect performance bottlenecks, lock contention, and transaction anomalies.

About

This skill equips Claude with the ability to proactively manage database health by analyzing transaction performance and identifying critical issues like long-running queries or deadlocks. By leveraging the /txn-monitor command, users can gain immediate visibility into rollback rates and lock wait times, allowing for rapid intervention before performance degradation affects the end-user experience. It is particularly useful for developers and DBAs needing to troubleshoot complex concurrency issues, optimize database throughput, and maintain system stability during high-load periods.
