# SQL Query Optimizer

## Overview

Rewrite SQL queries for maximum performance by eliminating anti-patterns, restructuring JOINs, leveraging window functions, and applying database-specific optimizations for PostgreSQL and MySQL. This skill takes a slow query and its execution plan as input and produces an optimized version with measurable improvement, along with any supporting index changes needed.

## Prerequisites

- The slow SQL query text and its current execution time
- `EXPLAIN ANALYZE` output (PostgreSQL) or `EXPLAIN FORMAT=JSON` output (MySQL) for the query
- Table row counts and approximate data distribution for involved tables
- `psql` or `mysql` CLI for testing rewrites
- Knowledge of the application's acceptable result ordering and NULL handling requirements
