   "description": "Runs PostgreSQL's own parser and analyser over a statement and stops before the executor, reporting the inferred type of every parameter and the name, type, source column and nullability of every result column. This is the server-side equivalent of sending Parse/Describe over the extended query protocol without Bind or Execute, as pgTyped, sqlc and sqlx do. Unlike tools that read pg_attribute.attnotnull alone, it walks the query's join tree, so a column on the nullable side of an outer join is correctly reported as nullable. Ships with a TypeScript code generator.",
