Standard Workflow

Step 1: Discovery

Always start by understanding the available connections and database structure. Use include_tables and include_columns to minimize round-trips:

1. whodb_connections - List available databases
2. whodb_tables(include_columns=true) - Get all tables AND their columns in one call

This gives you table names, column names, types, primary keys, and foreign key relationships in a single call — no need to call whodb_columns separately for each table.

Step 2: Schema Understanding

Review the column details from the previous step:

1. Note primary keys, foreign keys, and relationships
2. Build a mental model of the data flow
3. If you need multiple schemas: whodb_schemas(include_tables=true)

Step 3: Targeted Analysis

Based on the task, execute appropriate queries:

• Data exploration: Use LIMIT, sample data first
• Aggregations: GROUP BY with appropriate filters
• Relationships: JOIN tables based on foreign keys
• Quality checks: COUNT, NULL checks, DISTINCT values

Step 4: Synthesis

Compile findings into actionable insights:

• Summarize key findings
• Highlight issues or anomalies
• Provide specific recommendations
• Include relevant query examples
