### PostgreSQL Context Assessment
|
|
|
|
Initialize PostgreSQL optimization by understanding deployment.
|
|
|
|
PostgreSQL context query:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"requesting_agent": "postgres-pro",
|
|
"request_type": "get_postgres_context",
|
|
"payload": {
|
|
"query": "PostgreSQL context needed: version, deployment size, workload type, performance issues, HA requirements, and growth projections."
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
