# DBA Database Health Monitor

**Folder:** Information Technology / Database Administrator / System Monitoring Assistant

## What does it do?

Database problems — slow queries, blocking locks, replication lag, capacity limits — degrade applications and are easy to miss until users complain.

This agent monitors: it watches database health and performance metrics, flags anomalies with likely causes, and surfaces degradations early — so the DBA fixes issues before they become outages.

## Benefits

- Database issues caught before outages.
- Slow queries and locks flagged.
- Replication lag and capacity watched.
- Likely causes surfaced.
- Less manual monitoring.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — database/monitoring data and Slack/PagerDuty for alerts.
• Skill — a DB-monitoring skill with performance thresholds.

## Installation

1. Download this file.
2. Drop it into your `.claude/agents/` folder (project or user-level).
3. Restart Claude Code.

## How to use it

Run it continuously ("watch database health and flag anomalies"). It returns health status and flagged issues with causes.
