PG Mood Ring — PostgreSQL incident tracker & on-call journal

Q: Is PG Mood Ring free, and do I need an account?

Yes, it's free and there's no signup. Your on-call log lives only in your browser's local storage, and you can export a JSON backup anytime.

Q: What PostgreSQL incidents can I track?

Common PostgreSQL failure modes: deadlocks, replication lag, connection storms, vacuum and bloat, disk full, out-of-memory kills, rogue queries, idle-in-transaction, and broken extensions, plus free-text SQLSTATE codes and the specific extension that failed.

Q: What data leaves my device?

Only a small pseudonymous signal when the live feed is on: failure type, platform, and UTC day, tied to a random per-device id. No name, no query text, and no notes leave your browser.

ℹ️ What is PG Mood Ring?

PG Mood Ring is a one-tap PostgreSQL incident tracker and on-call journal. “PG” means PostgreSQL. Every time production bites — a deadlock, replication lag, a connection storm, vacuum bloat, disk full, an out-of-memory kill, a rogue query, or a broken extension — you log it in a single tap and quietly build a private monthly record of what you actually handled, how you solved it, and which runbooks you’re missing.

1Tap what brokeLog each PostgreSQL incident the moment it happens — one tap, no forms, no login. It’s saved privately in your browser.

2Build your on-call journalYour month adds up automatically: top failure modes, how often docs were missing, what you leaned on AI for — a personal history that’s more useful the longer you use it.

3Read the fleet’s moodSee today’s live community storm feed — what’s breaking for other PostgreSQL engineers right now, counted as one anonymous signal per person, per failure type, per day.

Is PG Mood Ring free, and do I need an account?

Yes — it’s free and there’s no signup. Your on-call log lives only in your browser’s local storage, and you can export a JSON backup anytime.

What PostgreSQL incidents can I track?

Common failure modes — deadlocks, replication lag, connection storms, vacuum/bloat, disk full, out-of-memory, rogue queries, idle-in-transaction and broken extensions — plus free-text SQLSTATE codes and the specific extension that failed.

What data leaves my device?

Only a small pseudonymous signal when the live feed is on: failure type + platform + UTC day, tied to a random per-device id. No name, no query text, no notes. The one exception is the short text under “Something Else,” shared anonymously to help add new categories.

Why should I come back every day?

The community mood gets you through the door; your own monthly journal is the reason to return. After a few weeks it shows what you keep firefighting and where your documentation is weak.
