  • Note 🔒 Read-Only Guarantee : iCli only executes read-only SQL queries ( SELECT metadata and EXPLAIN plan analysis).
  • It never mutates, inserts, or deletes any data in your database.
  • Demo Features Expensive Query Analysis : Identifies slow and resource-heavy queries using pg_stat_statements .
  • Execution Plan Profiling : Runs EXPLAIN (FORMAT JSON) and detects plan bottlenecks (e.g., sequential scans, disk sort spillage, inefficient joins).
  • Missing Foreign Key Index Detection : Finds foreign key constraints on child tables without a covering index, preventing severe sequential scan table locks on parent UPDATE or DELETE operations.
