Requires generating a diagnostics file from MySQL first using a built-in procedure before the script can analyze anything.

in plain english

MyRobot is a Python script that helps you make sense of MySQL database diagnostics. When a database is acting up, running slowly, or behaving unexpectedly, database administrators can generate a detailed diagnostic report using a built-in MySQL procedure. MyRobot reads that report and performs static analysis, meaning it examines the data without running any live queries against your database, to surface useful insights. To use it, you first generate a diagnostics file from your MySQL database. This is done by running a specific command inside MySQL that captures about a minute's worth of system metrics, query activity, and performance data, and saves it all to a text file. You then hand that text file to MyRobot by running it from the command line with Python. The script parses the file and presents the findings in a more digestible format, as shown in the project's demo. This tool is aimed at database administrators, backend developers, or site reliability engineers who manage MySQL environments. For example, if your web application starts experiencing slow response times, you might generate a diagnostics snapshot to figure out what is going wrong. Instead of manually reading through a massive, dense log file full of raw metrics, you can run MyRobot to help highlight the important parts of that data and guide your troubleshooting. The README does not go into detail about exactly which specific metrics or issues the tool flags, nor does it list what the final analyzed output looks like beyond an animated demonstration. The core tradeoff of this approach is that the analysis is entirely offline. Because it works on a saved text file rather than connecting directly to a live database, it is safe to run without risking any additional load on a production system, but it also means it can only tell you about what happened during the specific minute you captured.

prompts (copy fr)

prompt 1
I have a MySQL diagnostics report text file. Help me understand what MyRobot would look for in it and how to interpret the key metrics it surfaces.
prompt 2
Write a Python script similar to MyRobot that parses a MySQL diagnostics text file and highlights slow queries, lock contention, and unusual resource usage.
prompt 3
I captured a MySQL diagnostics snapshot using the built-in procedure during a slowdown. How should I run MyRobot against this file and what kind of insights can I expect?
prompt 4
Explain how to generate a MySQL diagnostics file from the command line so I can feed it into MyRobot for offline analysis.
