## From README

Database Traffic Control recommendations Purpose For PlanetScale Postgres, recommend Traffic Control budgets and rules that protect critical traffic from runaway queries, traffic spikes, batch jobs, agents, and third-party integrations. Do not create or change budgets without approval. Preconditions Run this skill only for PlanetScale Postgres. Before recommending rules, inspect: Current budgets and rules. Insights query patterns. Current query tags. Application routes and jobs. Known critical paths. Known expensive non-critical paths. Active incidents or recent anomalies. If query tags are missing, recommend tagging first unless a fingerprint-specific rule is clearly needed for an immediate known offender. Candidate traffic slices Look for: Exports. Reports. Search endpoints. Admin dashboards. Backfills. Workers and queues. Webhooks from third-party systems. BI tools. Agent-generated read queries. High-frequency polling. Known expensive query fingerprints.
