What problem does it solve?
This Skill eliminates the two most common agent mistakes on multi-step ClickHouse operational tasks: stating unconfirmed findings and losing track of completed work, which can lead to costly incorrect recommendations for schema changes, query rewrites, or anomaly responses.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured Task Planning: Breaks 3+ step investigations, recommendations, and diagnoses into explicit
update_plan checklists with clear progress tracking to maintain transparency on complex work.
- Rigorous Verification Discipline: Requires confirmation of all data findings via re-run queries, EXPLAIN comparisons for query rewrites, and measurable effect validation for recommendations before reporting.
- Confidence-Separated Reporting: Clearly distinguishes confirmed findings, likely inferences, and unverified hypotheses to avoid presenting guesses as fact.
- Use Case: For example, when investigating slow queries on a ClickHouse table, use this Skill to plan the investigation, verify part count trends, and only report confirmed root causes with actionable measurement guidance.
Quick Start
Use the plan-and-verify skill to investigate why queries on your ClickHouse events table have been slow since yesterday afternoon, following the structured planning and verification workflow to confirm the root cause before reporting findings.
