mysql-perf-tuning

mysql-perf-tuning is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from isdaniel/mysqltuner_mcp. It costs 127 tokens per session (2,676 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A MySQL performance-tuning skill that uses the mysqltuner_mcp server to inspect database health, queries, indexes, connections, locks, memory, and replication.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze slow queries, recommend indexes, tune InnoDB and server settings, investigate connection issues, size memory, and examine replication lag.
Why use it?
It organizes database diagnosis so the likely cause of slow queries, timeouts, contention, or other MySQL problems can be investigated systematically.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mysql-perf-tuning scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

MySQL Performance Tuning with mysqltuner_mcp

A systematic approach to MySQL performance tuning using the mysqltuner_mcp MCP server, which provides 39 diagnostic tools for analyzing and optimizing MySQL databases.

Prerequisites

This skill requires the mysqltuner_mcp MCP server to be connected. The server provides tools that query MySQL's performance_schema, information_schema, sys schema, and server status variables.

Before starting any tuning work, verify the MCP connection is active by calling one of the tools (e.g., check_database_health).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
