planetscale-query-insights-and-tags is a skill for Claude Code from planetscale/claude-plugin. It costs 38 tokens per session (2,151 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of planetscale-query-insights-and-tags, Apache-2.0.

A guide to using PlanetScale Insights, which shows how database queries behave, together with SQLCommenter-style tags that identify where queries came from.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find expensive, frequent, error-prone, or anomalous queries, examine indexing and routing signals, and prepare safe recommendations without changing the database or code.
Why use it?
It helps connect database load and failures to application code before recommending traffic controls or schema changes.

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

planetscale-query-insights-and-tags 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 11d 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.

Query Insights and tags

Purpose

Use PlanetScale Insights to understand query behavior, then recommend SQLCommenter-compatible tags that make future diagnosis and Traffic Control possible. Do not change database settings or repository code without approval.

What to inspect

Query behavior

For the selected database and branch, inspect:

  • Top queries by total time.
  • Top queries by time per execution.
  • Top queries by rows read.
  • Top queries by execution count.
  • For Postgres, top queries by CPU usage (sort=cpuTime or sort=percentCpuTime on the Insights API).
  • Queries with errors.
  • Notable queries and active anomalies.
  • Query patterns affected by recent deploys.
  • Query patterns attached to schema recommendations.
  • For sharded Vitess databases, vindex usage for each query pattern: the percentage of traffic using relevant vindexes and the vindex-usage trend over time. The API exposes per-pattern index_usages and routing_index_usages; get the trend from the dashboard Vindexes tab or by comparing API windows. Treat missing or declining relevant-vindex usage as an indexing or routing investigation input, not as proof that a new index is required.

Insights API surface

Query Insights is public API: read-only GET endpoints under organizations/{org}/databases/{db}/branches/{branch}, authorized by a service token or OAuth token with read_databases/read_database.

  • /insights — aggregated statistics per query pattern over the requested window. Set the window with from/to (ISO 8601) or period (for example 1h, 24h); search SQL patterns with q; sort server-side with sort and dir — sort keys include count, errorCount, rowsRead, totalTime, cpuTime, ioTime, percentTime, percentCpuTime, p50Latency, p99Latency, maxLatency, egressBytes, and the trafficControlWarnings/trafficControlThrottled family. Filter with tablet_type (primary, replica, rdonly) and type (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE); trim responses with fields; paginate with page/per_page.
  • /insights/{fingerprint} — individual collected executions for a pattern (timestamps, duration, rows, username, client address, error message). Available regardless of raw query collection; raw collection adds literal parameter values to these records. /insights/{fingerprint}/summary returns the single-pattern aggregate; /insights/queries/{id} fetches one execution.
  • /insights/errors — error fingerprints with counts and messages (q searches the error message; sort by count, lastRun, totalTime, or timePerQuery). /insights/errors/{fingerprint} lists the failing executions behind one error fingerprint.
  • /insights/anomalies and /insights/anomalies/{id} — anomaly windows with per-query correlation coefficients identifying which patterns moved with the anomaly.
  • /insights/tags — tag keys with observed values (values_limit, literal_values_only, and fingerprint/keyspace filters); /insights/tags/{tag} for a single key. /insights/tags/summaries groups the full statistics schema by one or more tag keys via the tags parameter — use it to attribute load to routes, jobs, or features without client-side aggregation.
  • /insights/{fingerprint}/traffic/budgets — the Traffic Control budgets and rules that affect a fingerprint (Postgres).

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.
