runbook: go manually dig and check some information, then run some sql on the prod database

Does manually running sql on prod database make anybody else feel nervous and gross?

    Na.

    More like "fasten your seatbelts, we're gonna do some racing and drifting, getting some adrenalin pumped"

    You literally write code that runs sql queries, so why would it feel any different running it directly?

    Use something like MySQL Workbench, idk.

    Nope. Nope nope.

    I am very careful when I do.

    Once dropped a prod db and we lost 2 hours of data.

    Just one little slip up and you fucked. And I don't trust me because I'm human.

    No, there are ways to protect yourself when running queries on a prod database, but it is bound to happen and you should always have backups or clones.
