About this skill
Diagnose a database deadlock from the engine's own deadlock report, reconstruct the lock cycle (A holds 1 wants 2, B holds 2 wants 1), name the root cause — almost always two code paths locking the same rows in different orders — and fix it with consistent lock ordering, shorter transactions, and a retry-the-victim safeguard. Use when the DB logs deadlock errors, when transactions intermittently fail under load, or when queries mysteriously block each other.
