Estimates which tables carry the most dead rows.

Works in read modeTool sets: dba · full

You might ask

“Which tables need a vacuum?”

Your assistant may call bloat_report to answer.

How it works

  • A quick estimate from the dead-row ratio in pg_stat_user_tables (tables with over 1,000 dead rows), not a measurement of on-disk bloat.

Parameters

limitnumber
Maximum number of tables to return. Default 10.

What your assistant reads

The description nexql-mcp sends with the tool. It's how the assistant decides when to use it.

Approximate table bloat via dead-tuple ratio from pg_stat_user_tables (simplified estimate — not physical page bloat). Tables with >1000 dead tuples, ordered by bloat %.
