SQL Helper

Overview

Helps write, optimize, and debug SQL queries.

When to Use

User asks to "write a SQL query" or "optimize this query"

Debugging slow database operations

Pagination

SELECT * FROM users ORDER BY id LIMIT 20 OFFSET 40;

Join with Aggregation

SELECT u.name, COUNT(o.id) as order_count FROM users u LEFT JOIN orders o ON u.id = o.user_id GROUP BY u.id;

Optimization Rules

Add indexes on WHERE/JOIN columns

Avoid SELECT * - specify columns

Use EXPLAIN to analyze execution plan

Optimize JOIN order (small table first)

Add LIMIT for pagination

Anti-Patterns to Avoid

SELECT * in production code

Nested subqueries (use JOINs or CTEs)

OR in WHERE clause (use IN or UNION)
