+# Database Schema Designer
+
+Design production-ready database schemas with best practices built-in.
+
+---
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Just describe your data model:
+
+```
+design a schema for an e-commerce platform with users, products, orders
+```
+
+You'll get a complete SQL schema like:
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE users (
+  id BIGINT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
+  email VARCHAR(255) UNIQUE NOT NULL,
+  created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+);
+
+CREATE TABLE orders (
+  id BIGINT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
+  user_id BIGINT NOT NULL REFERENCES users(id),
+  total DECIMAL(10,2) NOT NULL,
+  INDEX idx_orders_user (user_id)
+);
+```
+
+**What to include in your request:**
+- Entities (users, products, orders)
+- Key relationships (users have orders, orders have items)
+- Scale hints (high-traffic, millions of records)
+- Database preference (SQL/NoSQL) - defaults to SQL if not specified
+
+---
+
+## Triggers
+
+| Trigger | Example |
+|---------|---------|
+| `design schema` | "design a schema for user authentication" |
+| `database design` | "database design for multi-tenant SaaS" |
+| `create tables` | "create tables for a blog system" |
+| `schema for` | "schema for inventory management" |
+| `model data` | "model data for real-time analytics" |
+| `I need a database` | "I need a database for tracking orders" |
+| `design NoSQL` | "design NoSQL schema for product catalog" |
+
+---
+
+## Key Terms
+
+| Term | Definition |
+|------|------------|
+| **Normalization** | Organizing data to reduce redundancy (1NF → 2NF → 3NF) |
+| **3NF** | Third Normal Form - no transitive dependencies between columns |
+| **OLTP** | Online Transaction Processing - write-heavy, needs normalization |
+| **OLAP** | Online Analytical Processing - read-heavy, benefits from denormalization |
+| **Foreign Key (FK)** | Column that references another table's primary key |
+| **Index** | Data structure that speeds up queries (at cost of slower writes) |
+| **Access Pattern** | How your app reads/writes data (queries, joins, filters) |
+| **Denormalization** | Intentionally duplicating data to speed up reads |
+
+---
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| Task | Approach | Key Consideration |
+|------|----------|-------------------|
+| New schema | Normalize to 3NF first | Domain modeling over UI |
+| SQL vs NoSQL | Access patterns decide | Read/write ratio matters |
+| Primary keys | INT or UUID | UUID for distributed systems |
+| Foreign keys | Always constrain | ON DELETE strategy critical |
+| Indexes | FKs + WHERE columns | Column order matters |
+| Migrations | Always reversible | Backward compatible first |
+
+---
+
+## Process Overview
+
+```
+Your Data Requirements
+    |
+    v
+-----------------------------------------------------+
+| Phase 1: ANALYSIS                                   |
+| * Identify entities and relationships               |
+| * Determine access patterns (read vs write heavy)   |
+| * Choose SQL or NoSQL based on requirements         |
+-----------------------------------------------------+
+    |
+    v
+-----------------------------------------------------+
+| Phase 2: DESIGN                                     |
+| * Normalize to 3NF (SQL) or embed/reference (NoSQL) |
+| * Define primary keys and foreign keys              |
+| * Choose appropriate data types                     |
+| * Add constraints (UNIQUE, CHECK, NOT NULL)         |
+-----------------------------------------------------+
+    |
+    v
+-----------------------------------------------------+
+| Phase 3: OPTIMIZE                                   |
+| * Plan indexing strategy                            |
+| * Consider denormalization for read-heavy queries   |
+| * Add timestamps (created_at, updated_at)           |
+-----------------------------------------------------+
+    |
+    v
+-----------------------------------------------------+
+| Phase 4: MIGRATE                                    |
+| * Generate migration scripts (up + down)            |
+| * Ensure backward compatibility                     |
+| * Plan zero-downtime deployment                     |
+-----------------------------------------------------+
+    |
+    v
+Production-Ready Schema
+```
+
+---
+
+## Commands
+
+| Command | When to Use | Action |
+|---------|-------------|--------|
+| `design schema for {domain}` | Starting fresh | Full schema generation |
+| `normalize {table}` | Fixing existing table | Apply normalization rules |
+| `add indexes for {table}` | Performance issues | Generate index strategy |
+| `migration for {change}` | Schema evolution | Create reversible migration |
+| `review schema` | Code review | Audit existing schema |
+
+**Workflow:** Start with `design schema` → iterate with `normalize` → optimize with `add indexes` → evolve with `migration`
+
+---
+
+## Core Principles
+
+| Principle | WHY | Implementation |
+|-----------|-----|----------------|
+| Model the Domain | UI changes, domain doesn't | Entity names reflect business concepts |
+| Data Integrity First | Corruption is costly to fix | Constraints at database level |
+| Optimize for Access Pattern | Can't optimize for both | OLTP: normalized, OLAP: denormalized |
+| Plan for Scale | Retrofitting is painful | Index strategy + partitioning plan |
+
+---
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+| Avoid | Why | Instead |
+|-------|-----|---------|
+| VARCHAR(255) everywhere | Wastes storage, hides intent | Size appropriately per field |
+| FLOAT for money | Rounding errors | DECIMAL(10,2) |
+| Missing FK constraints | Orphaned data | Always define foreign keys |
+| No indexes on FKs | Slow JOINs | Index every foreign key |
+| Storing dates as strings | Can't compare/sort | DATE, TIMESTAMP types |
+| SELECT * in queries | Fetches unnecessary data | Explicit column lists |
+| Non-reversible migrations | Can't rollback | Always write DOWN migration |
+| Adding NOT NULL without default | Breaks existing rows | Add nullable, backfill, then constrain |
+
+---
+
+## Verification Checklist
+
+After designing a schema:
+
+- [ ] Every table has a primary key
+- [ ] All relationships have foreign key constraints
+- [ ] ON DELETE strategy defined for each FK
+- [ ] Indexes exist on all foreign keys
+- [ ] Indexes exist on frequently queried columns
+- [ ] Appropriate data types (DECIMAL for money, etc.)
+- [ ] NOT NULL on required fields
+- [ ] UNIQUE constraints where needed
+- [ ] CHECK constraints for validation
+- [ ] created_at and updated_at timestamps
+- [ ] Migration scripts are reversible
+- [ ] Tested on staging with production data

+
+### Normal Forms
+
+| Form | Rule | Violation Example |
+|------|------|-------------------|
+| **1NF** | Atomic values, no repeating groups | `product_ids = '1,2,3'` |
+| **2NF** | 1NF + no partial dependencies | customer_name in order_items |
+| **3NF** | 2NF + no transitive dependencies | country derived from postal_code |
+
+### 1st Normal Form (1NF)
+
+```sql
+-- BAD: Multiple values in column
+CREATE TABLE orders (
+  id INT PRIMARY KEY,
+  product_ids VARCHAR(255)  -- '101,102,103'
+);
+
+-- GOOD: Separate table for items
+CREATE TABLE orders (
+  id INT PRIMARY KEY,
+  customer_id INT
+);
+
+CREATE TABLE order_items (
+  id INT PRIMARY KEY,
+  order_id INT REFERENCES orders(id),
+  product_id INT
+);
+```
+
+### 2nd Normal Form (2NF)
+
+```sql
+-- BAD: customer_name depends only on customer_id
+CREATE TABLE order_items (
+  order_id INT,
+  product_id INT,
+  customer_name VARCHAR(100),  -- Partial dependency!
+  PRIMARY KEY (order_id, product_id)
+);
+
+-- GOOD: Customer data in separate table
+CREATE TABLE customers (
+  id INT PRIMARY KEY,
+  name VARCHAR(100)
+);
+```
+
+### 3rd Normal Form (3NF)
+
+```sql
+-- BAD: country depends on postal_code
+CREATE TABLE customers (
+  id INT PRIMARY KEY,
+  postal_code VARCHAR(10),
+  country VARCHAR(50)  -- Transitive dependency!
+);
+
+-- GOOD: Separate postal_codes table
+CREATE TABLE postal_codes (
+  code VARCHAR(10) PRIMARY KEY,
+  country VARCHAR(50)
+);
+```
+
+### When to Denormalize
+
+| Scenario | Denormalization Strategy |
+|----------|-------------------------|
+| Read-heavy reporting | Pre-calculated aggregates |
+| Expensive JOINs | Cached derived columns |
+| Analytics dashboards | Materialized views |
+
+```sql
+-- Denormalized for performance
+CREATE TABLE orders (
+  id INT PRIMARY KEY,
+  customer_id INT,
+  total_amount DECIMAL(10,2),  -- Calculated
+  item_count INT               -- Calculated
+);
+```

+<summary><strong>Deep Dive: Data Types</strong></summary>
+
+### String Types
+
+| Type | Use Case | Example |
+|------|----------|---------|
+| CHAR(n) | Fixed length | State codes, ISO dates |
+| VARCHAR(n) | Variable length | Names, emails |
+| TEXT | Long content | Articles, descriptions |
+
+```sql
+-- Good sizing
+email VARCHAR(255)
+phone VARCHAR(20)
+country_code CHAR(2)
+```
+
+### Numeric Types
+
+| Type | Range | Use Case |
+|------|-------|----------|
+| TINYINT | -128 to 127 | Age, status codes |
+| SMALLINT | -32K to 32K | Quantities |
+| INT | -2.1B to 2.1B | IDs, counts |
+| BIGINT | Very large | Large IDs, timestamps |
+| DECIMAL(p,s) | Exact precision | Money |
+| FLOAT/DOUBLE | Approximate | Scientific data |
+
+```sql
+-- ALWAYS use DECIMAL for money
+price DECIMAL(10, 2)  -- $99,999,999.99
+
+-- NEVER use FLOAT for money
+price FLOAT  -- Rounding errors!
+```
+
+### Date/Time Types
+
+```sql
+DATE        -- 2025-10-31
+TIME        -- 14:30:00
+DATETIME    -- 2025-10-31 14:30:00
+TIMESTAMP   -- Auto timezone conversion
+
+-- Always store in UTC
+created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+```
+
+### Boolean
+
+```sql
+-- PostgreSQL
+is_active BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE
+
+-- MySQL
+is_active TINYINT(1) DEFAULT 1
+```
+
+</details>
+
+<details>
+<summary><strong>Deep Dive: Indexing Strategy</strong></summary>
+
+### When to Create Indexes
+
+| Always Index | Reason |
+|--------------|--------|
+| Foreign keys | Speed up JOINs |
+| WHERE clause columns | Speed up filtering |
+| ORDER BY columns | Speed up sorting |
+| Unique constraints | Enforced uniqueness |
+
+```sql
+-- Foreign key index
+CREATE INDEX idx_orders_customer ON orders(customer_id);
+
+-- Query pattern index
+CREATE INDEX idx_orders_status_date ON orders(status, created_at);
+```
+
+### Index Types
+
+| Type | Best For | Example |
+|------|----------|---------|
+| B-Tree | Ranges, equality | `price > 100` |
+| Hash | Exact matches only | `email = 'x@y.com'` |
+| Full-text | Text search | `MATCH AGAINST` |
+| Partial | Subset of rows | `WHERE is_active = true` |
+
+### Composite Index Order
+
+```sql
+CREATE INDEX idx_customer_status ON orders(customer_id, status);
+
+-- Uses index (customer_id first)
+SELECT * FROM orders WHERE customer_id = 123;
+SELECT * FROM orders WHERE customer_id = 123 AND status = 'pending';
+
+-- Does NOT use index (status alone)
+SELECT * FROM orders WHERE status = 'pending';
+```
+
+**Rule:** Most selective column first, or column most queried alone.
+
+### Index Pitfalls
+
+| Pitfall | Problem | Solution |
+|---------|---------|----------|
+| Over-indexing | Slow writes | Only index what's queried |
+| Wrong column order | Unused index | Match query patterns |
+| Missing FK indexes | Slow JOINs | Always index FKs |
+

+<summary><strong>Deep Dive: Constraints</strong></summary>
+
+### Primary Keys
+
+```sql
+-- Auto-increment (simple)
+id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY
+
+-- UUID (distributed systems)
+id CHAR(36) PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT (UUID())
+
+-- Composite (junction tables)
+PRIMARY KEY (student_id, course_id)
+```
+
+### Foreign Keys
+
+```sql
+FOREIGN KEY (customer_id) REFERENCES customers(id)
+  ON DELETE CASCADE     -- Delete children with parent
+  ON DELETE RESTRICT    -- Prevent deletion if referenced
+  ON DELETE SET NULL    -- Set to NULL when parent deleted
+  ON UPDATE CASCADE     -- Update children when parent changes
+```
+
+| Strategy | Use When |
+|----------|----------|
+| CASCADE | Dependent data (order_items) |
+| RESTRICT | Important references (prevent accidents) |
+| SET NULL | Optional relationships |
+
+### Other Constraints
+
+```sql
+-- Unique
+email VARCHAR(255) UNIQUE NOT NULL
+
+-- Composite unique
+UNIQUE (student_id, course_id)
+
+-- Check
+price DECIMAL(10,2) CHECK (price >= 0)
+discount INT CHECK (discount BETWEEN 0 AND 100)
+
+-- Not null
+name VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL

+  CHECK (
+    (post_id IS NOT NULL AND photo_id IS NULL) OR

+-- Approach 2: Type + ID (flexible, weaker integrity)
+CREATE TABLE comments (
+  id INT PRIMARY KEY,
+  content TEXT NOT NULL,
+  commentable_type VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
+  commentable_id INT NOT NULL
+);

+| Factor | Embed | Reference |
+|--------|-------|-----------|
+| Access pattern | Read together | Read separately |
+| Relationship | 1:few | 1:many |
+| Document size | Small | Approaching 16MB |
+| Update frequency | Rarely | Frequently |
+
+### Embedded Document

+
+### Migration Best Practices
+
+| Practice | WHY |
+|----------|-----|
+| Always reversible | Need to rollback |
+| Backward compatible | Zero-downtime deploys |
+| Schema before data | Separate concerns |
+| Test on staging | Catch issues early |
+
+### Adding a Column (Zero-Downtime)
+
+```sql
+-- Step 1: Add nullable column
+ALTER TABLE users ADD COLUMN phone VARCHAR(20);
+
+-- Step 2: Deploy code that writes to new column
+
+-- Step 3: Backfill existing rows
+UPDATE users SET phone = '' WHERE phone IS NULL;
+
+-- Step 4: Make required (if needed)
+ALTER TABLE users MODIFY phone VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL;
+```
+
+### Renaming a Column (Zero-Downtime)
+
+```sql
+-- Step 1: Add new column
+ALTER TABLE users ADD COLUMN email_address VARCHAR(255);
+
+-- Step 2: Copy data
+UPDATE users SET email_address = email;
+
+-- Step 3: Deploy code reading from new column
+-- Step 4: Deploy code writing to new column
+
+-- Step 5: Drop old column
+ALTER TABLE users DROP COLUMN email;
+```
+
+### Migration Template
+
+```sql
+-- Migration: YYYYMMDDHHMMSS_description.sql
+
+-- UP
+BEGIN;
+ALTER TABLE users ADD COLUMN phone VARCHAR(20);
+CREATE INDEX idx_users_phone ON users(phone);
+COMMIT;
+
+-- DOWN
+BEGIN;
+DROP INDEX idx_users_phone ON users;
+ALTER TABLE users DROP COLUMN phone;
+COMMIT;
+```

+<summary><strong>Deep Dive: Performance Optimization</strong></summary>
+
+### Query Analysis
+
+```sql
+EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM orders
+WHERE customer_id = 123 AND status = 'pending';
+```
+
+| Look For | Meaning |
+|----------|---------|
+| type: ALL | Full table scan (bad) |
+| type: ref | Index used (good) |
+| key: NULL | No index used |
+| rows: high | Many rows scanned |
+
+### N+1 Query Problem
+
+```python
+# BAD: N+1 queries
+orders = db.query("SELECT * FROM orders")
+for order in orders:
+    customer = db.query(f"SELECT * FROM customers WHERE id = {order.customer_id}")
+
+# GOOD: Single JOIN
+results = db.query("""
+    SELECT orders.*, customers.name
+    FROM orders
+    JOIN customers ON orders.customer_id = customers.id
+""")
+```
+
+### Optimization Techniques
+
+| Technique | When to Use |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| Add indexes | Slow WHERE/ORDER BY |
+| Denormalize | Expensive JOINs |
+| Pagination | Large result sets |
+| Caching | Repeated queries |
+| Read replicas | Read-heavy load |
+| Partitioning | Very large tables |
+

+1. **Database-Specific Patterns:** Add MySQL vs PostgreSQL vs SQLite variations
+2. **Advanced Patterns:** Time-series, event sourcing, CQRS, multi-tenancy
+3. **ORM Integration:** TypeORM, Prisma, SQLAlchemy patterns
+4. **Monitoring:** Query performance tracking, slow query alerts
