Summary
Introduces the 'Connections' CLI feature for real-time inspection and management of database connections in PlanetScale Postgres and Vitess. This feature provides a live, interactive view of sessions, including PIDs, status, wait events, and blocking relationships, with keyboard shortcuts for navigation and inspection. It offers history buffering, pausing, stepping, and session capture capabilities. A reserved administrative connection ensures the tool remains available even when application connections are exhausted. For Vitess, it supports keyspace and shard-specific monitoring.
