sqlmemory-review skillA
sqlmemory-review is agent-read markdown (skill) from vanterx/mssql-performance-skills: Analyze SQL Server memory pressure using buffer pool metrics, plan cache composition, memory grants, and memory clerk data. Applies 20 checks (O1–O20) covering Page Life Expectancy degradation, single-use plan cache bloat, RESOURCE_SEMAPHORE queue depth, memory grant timeouts, buffer pool concentration, ColumnStore and In-Memory OLTP footprint, OS memory pressure notifications, and server memory configuration. Use this skill when the server is paging, queries queue for memory grants, or PLE is l.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# SQL Server Memory Review Skill ## Purpose Analyze SQL Server memory state and identify the root cause of memory pressure. Applies 20 checks (O1–O20) across four categories: - **O1–O5** — Buffer pool and Page Life Expectancy: detect low PLE, declining trends, NUMA node imbalance, and buffer pool concentration in a single database - **O6–O10** — Plan cache: single-use plan bloat, excessive compile counts, large individual plans, and high plan cache churn - **O11–O15** — Memory grants and RESOURCE_SEMAPHORE: detect grant queuing, grant timeouts, oversized grants, and Resource Governor misconfigurations - **O16–O20** — Memory clerks, OS pressure, and configuration: ColumnStore/In-Memory OLTP memory footprint, OS pressure notifications, stolen (non-buffer) memory dominance, Lock Pages in Memory misconfiguration, and Max Server Memory not explicitly set ## Input Accept any of: - Output from `sys.dm_os_memory_clerks` capture query below (paste the result grid) - Output from `sys.dm_os_ring_buffers` WHERE `ring_buffer_type = N'RING_BUFFER_RESOURCE_MONITOR'` — memory pressure notifications (also accept `RING_BUFFER_OOM` records for out-of-memory events) …

How to install
mdr add vanterx/mssql-performance-skills/sqlmemory-review@git:20260622.55f8c85mdr add vanterx/mssql-performance-skills/sqlmemory-review@sha256:7da939e740fb4201Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
