type:audittype:review
Use when reviewing or remediating PostgreSQL query and index performance against a stated performance budget. Produces an index audit (B-tree, hash, GIN, GiST, BRIN, partial, expression, covering), EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS)-driven query review, pg_stat_statements hot-query identification, partitioning validation (range/list/hash), N+1 and join-order remediation, and autovacuum and bloat posture. Do not use for initial schema design, new-table modeling, migration authoring, replication topology, or backup strategy; use postgres-schema-and-migration, postgres-replication-and-ha-readiness, or postgres-backup-and-operational-readiness instead.
