- A raw SQL query you want to analyze.
- A connected Gmail account to receive the results.
How The Flow Works
| Step | Component | Action |

| 1 | Manual Trigger | Provide your SQL query to start the workflow. A sample query is included by default. |
| 2 | AI Agent | Acts as an expert SQL analyst to explain the query, write an optimized version, and suggest specific improvements. |
| 3 | Code Formatter | Takes the structured AI output and formats it neatly into a readable email body. |
| 4 | Send Email | Delivers the final formatted analysis directly to your specified Gmail address. |
Output
You will receive an email containing three clear sections:
- A plain English explanation of what your original query does.
