Query Translator Skill

Translates SQL queries between different database dialects, handling function mapping, syntax differences, and performance optimization.

Purpose

Enable SQL migration for:

• Dialect conversion
• Function mapping
• Syntax translation
• Performance hint conversion
• Query optimization suggestions

Capabilities

1. Dialect Conversion

• Oracle to PostgreSQL
• SQL Server to MySQL
• MySQL to PostgreSQL
• And more combinations

2. Function Mapping

• Date/time functions
• String functions
• Math functions
• Custom function equivalents

3. Syntax Translation

• Pagination (LIMIT/OFFSET/ROWNUM)
• String concatenation
• NULL handling
• Boolean expressions

4. Performance Hint Conversion

• Index hints
• Join hints
• Optimizer directives
• Execution plan guidance

5. Query Optimization Suggestions

• Index recommendations
• Query restructuring
• Join optimization
• Subquery refactoring
