# Query Writing Skill

## Workflow for Simple Queries

For straightforward questions about a single table:

1. **Identify the table** - Which table has the data?
2. **Get the schema** - Use `sql_db_schema` to see columns
3. **Write the query** - SELECT relevant columns with WHERE/LIMIT/ORDER BY
4. **Execute** - Run with `sql_db_query`
5. **Format answer** - Present results clearly
