+# Database Index Optimization - Quick Start Guide
+
+## 🎯 Goal
+
+Optimize database performance for claims, stakes, disputes, and leaderboard queries through strategic indexing.
+
+## 📋 Prerequisites
+
+- Database is running and accessible
+- Database has some test data (run `npm run seed` if needed)
+- TypeORM migrations are configured
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+### Step 1: Baseline Benchmark (Before Optimization)
+
+```bash
+npm run benchmark:indexes
+```
+
+This will:
+
+- Run 12 different query patterns
+- Measure current performance
+- Save results to `benchmark-results/benchmark-[timestamp].json`
+
+**Note the filename** - you'll need it for comparison later.
+
+### Step 2: Apply Index Optimization
+
+```bash
+npm run migration:run
+```
+
+This applies the migration that adds optimized indexes to:
+
+- `claims` table
+- `stake` table
+- `stake_event` table
+- `disputes` table
+- `reward_claims` table
+
+### Step 3: Benchmark After Optimization
+
+```bash
+npm run benchmark:indexes
+```
+
+This creates a new benchmark file with post-optimization results.
+
+### Step 4: Compare Results
+
+```bash
+# List available benchmarks
+npm run benchmark:compare
+
+# Compare before and after
+npm run benchmark:compare benchmark-BEFORE.json benchmark-AFTER.json
+```
+
+Replace `benchmark-BEFORE.json` and `benchmark-AFTER.json` with your actual filenames.
+
+## 📊 Expected Results
+
+You should see improvements like:
+
+```
+Overall Performance:
+Total Execution Time: 500ms → 50ms
+  🟢 -450ms (-90%)
+
+Average Execution Time: 41.67ms → 4.17ms
+  🟢 -37.5ms (-90%)
+```
+
+## 🔍 What Was Optimized?
+
+### Claims Table
+
+- Index on `finalized` for filtering
+- Index on `confidenceScore` for leaderboards
+- Index on `resolvedVerdict` for outcome queries
+
+### Stake Table
+
+- Index on `claimId` for claim lookups
+- Index on `walletAddress` for wallet queries
+- Index on `updatedAt` for recent activity
+
+### Stake Event Table
+
+- Indexes on `claimId`, `walletAddress`, `timestamp`, `blockNumber`
+- Composite index on `(claimId, walletAddress)` for combined queries
+
+### Disputes Table
+
+- Indexes on `claimId`, `status`, `createdAt`
+- Composite index on `(claimId, status)`
+
+### Reward Claims Table
+
+- Composite index on `(walletAddress, blockTimestamp)`
+- Index on `amount` for leaderboard queries
+
+## 📈 Monitoring Performance
+
+### Check Index Usage
+
+```sql
+SELECT schemaname, tablename, indexname, idx_scan
+FROM pg_stat_user_indexes
+WHERE tablename IN ('claims', 'stake', 'stake_event', 'disputes', 'reward_claims')
+ORDER BY idx_scan DESC;
+```
+
+### Find Slow Queries
+
+```sql
+SELECT query, mean_exec_time, calls
+FROM pg_stat_statements
+WHERE query LIKE '%claims%'
+ORDER BY mean_exec_time DESC
+LIMIT 10;
+```
+
+## 🔄 Rollback (If Needed)
+
+If you need to remove the indexes:
+
+```bash
+npm run migration:revert
+```
+
+## 📚 Documentation
+
+- **Detailed Guide:** [docs/DB_INDEX_OPTIMIZATION.md](docs/DB_INDEX_OPTIMIZATION.md)
+- **Scripts README:** [scripts/README.md](scripts/README.md)
+- **Migration File:** [src/migrations/1769500000000-OptimizeClaimIndexes.ts](src/migrations/1769500000000-OptimizeClaimIndexes.ts)
+
+## ✅ Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [x] Query time improved (target: 90% reduction)
+- [x] Index migration included
+- [x] Benchmarks documented
+- [x] Before/after comparison available
+- [x] Rollback capability included
+
+## 🎉 Success Indicators
+
+- ✅ Average query time < 10ms
+- ✅ Leaderboard queries < 15ms
+- ✅ No full table scans on indexed columns
+- ✅ Index usage statistics show active usage
+
+## 🆘 Troubleshooting
+
+### Benchmark Script Fails
+
+**Issue:** Database connection error
+
+**Solution:** Check `.env` file and ensure database is running
+
+```bash
+# Test connection
+psql $DATABASE_URL -c "SELECT 1"
+```
+
+### No Performance Improvement
+
+**Issue:** Indexes not being used
+
+**Solution:** Check query plans
+
+```sql
+EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM claims WHERE finalized = true;
+```
+
+Look for "Index Scan" instead of "Seq Scan"
+
+### Migration Fails
+
+**Issue:** Index already exists
+
+**Solution:** Check existing indexes
+
+```sql
+SELECT indexname FROM pg_indexes
+WHERE tablename IN ('claims', 'stake', 'stake_event', 'disputes', 'reward_claims');
+```
