Edit the PostgreSQL executor or planner — covers src/backend/executor/ (nodeXxx.c, ExecInitNode/ExecProcNode/ExecEndNode/ExecReScan dispatch, PlanState lifecycle, EXPLAIN wiring) and src/backend/optimizer/ (Path → Plan via createplan.c, RelOptInfo lifecycle, addpath cost-dominance pruning, cost units in cost.h). Use whenever a PG patch adds or modifies a plan-node executor, introduces a new Path or Plan type, changes cost-model fields in cost.h, adds EXPLAIN output for a node, plumbs a node into execParallel.c, or tweaks join-path enumeration. Skip for end-user query tuning, EXPLAIN ANALYZE of a production query, workmem / sharedbuffers tuning, MySQL / MongoDB / BigQuery / Snowflake / DuckDB / Spark / Trino query engines, ORM query-builder optimization, and pandas / polars dataframe operations.

Quick start
Copy the install prompt. Use the green button above this README.
Send it to your agent. Paste it into your coding agent’s chat and send.
Review the setup. Your agent checks the skill’s instructions, requirements, and installation scope.
