Use when scripting, automating, or querying YugabyteDB Aeon (YugabyteDB Managed cloud) via its REST API — including listing and scaling clusters, managing database users, configuring network allowlists, reading cluster metrics, managing backups, and working with VPC peering or private endpoints. Triggers on YugabyteDB Aeon API, YugabyteDB Managed API, cloud.yugabyte.com/api, Aeon REST, automate Aeon, scale Aeon cluster programmatically, Aeon metrics via API, Aeon backup via API, Aeon allowlist API. Does NOT cover the YBA (YugabyteDB Anywhere) self-managed API — use `yba-api` for that. Does NOT cover performance diagnosis (SQL or metrics layer) — use `yb-perf` for that.

Use when scripting, automating, or troubleshooting the YugabyteDB Anywhere (YBA) REST API — the control-plane API for self-managed YBA instances that creates and manages providers, releases, universes, backups, KMS, and DR. Triggers on `/api/v1/`, `/api/v2/`, `X-AUTH-YW-API-TOKEN`, `apiToken`, `customerUUID`, `taskUUID`, `Invoke-YbaRequest`, registration of a new YBA instance, or any mention of the YBA API. Does NOT cover YugabyteDB Aeon (use the aeon-api skill) or database access via YSQL/YCQL (use the ysql and ycql skills).

Use when writing, generating, or troubleshooting Terraform that drives YugabyteDB Anywhere (YBA) via the `yugabyte/yba` provider — installing YBA on a VM, registering the first customer, and creating cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure) or on-prem providers, storage configs, universes, backups, schedules, and restores. Also covers the upstream cloud Terraform (IAM user / service account / service principal) that grants YBA its node-deployment permissions, and the CLI commands to discover the VPC/subnet/security-group network info those manifests need. Triggers on `yba_installer`, `yba_customer_resource`, `yba_aws_provider`/`yba_gcp_provider`/`yba_azure_provider`, `yba_universe`, `yba_backup`, `source = "yugabyte/yba"`, or any mention of the YBA Terraform provider. Does NOT cover the YBA REST API directly (use the yba-api skill) or YugabyteDB Aeon.

Use when provisioning, managing, or troubleshooting YugabyteDB universes on Kubernetes via the YugabyteDB Kubernetes Operator and YugabyteDB Anywhere CRDs (YBUniverse, YBProvider, Release, Backup, StorageConfig, PitrRestore, DrConfig, etc.). Triggers on kubectl apply, Helm install of yugaware, operator CRDs, or any mention of YugabyteDB with Kubernetes.

Offline review of an existing YugabyteDB YSQL schema and data model from evidence captured on the running database: a ysql_dump of the schema, plus pg_stats, pg_stat_statements or a query list, row counts and planner settings when available. Finds key and sharding problems (hot shards, tablet skew), unused or redundant indexes, partition and tablet-split gaps and data-quality issues, with deterministic findings and safety-checked DDL. Use when the user hands over a YugabyteDB schema dump or capture bundle and asks whether the schema or data model holds up, or why a table or tablet is hot, for example "review this ysql_dump" or "audit our data model before go-live". Not for: a slow query, pg_stat_statements output without a schema, node metrics such as CPU, memory or I/O, or an open-ended universe health check (yb-perf); designing a new schema, application code, or a PostgreSQL schema being migrated (ysql).

Checks the YugabyteDB-specific performance traps that general database and monitoring knowledge misses, and the evidence required before concluding. Use when an app, site or database on YugabyteDB is slow, latency is up, p99 regressed, someone asks "is the database the cause?", or a universe needs a health check or performance review - and for the specifics - a slow query, an EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, DIST) plan, pg_stat_statements, lock contention or retries, ASH wait events, a node hotspot, leader or tablet skew, CPU, disk or memory pressure, tablet limits, Prometheus / YBA metrics. Covers both the SQL layer and the metrics layer, with read-only one-call check scripts, and works with whatever access exists - live SQL, Prometheus / YBA metrics, or pasted output - before naming a root cause or ruling the database out.
