16impl ListMaterializedViewsTool {
17    const NAME: &'static str = "listMaterializedViews";
18    const TITLE: &'static str = "List Materialized Views";
19    const DESCRIPTION: &'static str = r#"List materialized views in the `public` schema, optionally filtered and/or with full metadata. Unlike regular views, materialized views store their results physically and must be refreshed explicitly. Regular views and system-schema matviews are excluded.
20
21<usecase>
22Use when:
23- Auditing materialized views across a database (brief mode, default).
24- Searching for a matview by partial name (pass `search`).
25- Inspecting a matview's owner, comment, full SELECT body, populated state, and index presence before querying or refreshing it (pass `detailed: true`). Detailed mode supersedes ad-hoc `readQuery` against `pg_matviews` / `pg_class`.
26</usecase>
27
28<parameters>
29- `database` — Database to target. Defaults to the active database.
30- `cursor` — Opaque pagination cursor; echo the prior response's `nextCursor`.
31- `search` — Case-insensitive filter on matview names via `ILIKE`. `%` matches any sequence; `_` matches a single character.
32- `detailed` — When `true`, returns full metadata objects keyed by bare matview name instead of bare name strings. Default `false`.
33</parameters>
34
35<examples>
36✓ "What materialized views are in mydb?" → listMaterializedViews(database="mydb")
37✓ "Find the recent-orders matview" → listMaterializedViews(search="orders")
38✓ "What does mv_orders_by_region compute?" → listMaterializedViews(search="mv_orders_by_region", detailed=true)
39✓ "Has the cache matview ever been refreshed?" → listMaterializedViews(search="cache", detailed=true) — read `populated`
40✓ "Which matviews can I refresh concurrently?" → listMaterializedViews(detailed=true) — read `indexed` (CONCURRENTLY additionally needs a unique index)
41✗ "List regular views" → use listViews instead
42</examples>
43
44<what_it_returns>
45Brief mode (default): a sorted JSON array of matview-name strings, e.g. `["mv_archived_orders", "mv_recent_orders"]`. Matview names are unique per schema, so no duplicates appear.
46Detailed mode: a JSON object keyed by bare matview name; each value carries:
47- `schema` — schema name (always `"public"` in this build).
48- `owner` — owning role's name from `pg_matviews.matviewowner`.
49- `description` — `COMMENT ON MATERIALIZED VIEW` text, or `null` when no comment.
50- `definition` — the SELECT body verbatim from `pg_matviews.definition`, with no `CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW` wrapper.
51- `populated` — `true` once the matview has been refreshed at least once. `false` for matviews created `WITH NO DATA` and never refreshed; querying such a matview returns zero rows until `REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW` runs.
52- `indexed` — `true` when at least one index exists on the matview. `REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY` additionally requires a unique index; this tool reports the broader has-any-index signal.
53
54The matview name is the map key only — it is not repeated inside the value. Detailed mode deliberately omits column metadata (`columns`), `tablespace`, storage parameters, and unique-index detection. Column shape is recoverable from the `definition` text or via `listTables(detailed=true)` since Postgres exposes matviews in `pg_class`.
55</what_it_returns>
56
57<pagination>
58Paginated. Pass the prior response's `nextCursor` as `cursor` to fetch the next page. The `search` filter must stay the same across pages for cursor continuity. Brief and detailed modes share the same `matviewname` row order, so a client can switch `detailed` between pages without losing position.

100/// `($1::text IS NULL OR ...)` trinary lets one statement cover both filtered
101/// and unfiltered cases. Matview names are unique per schema (Postgres enforces
102/// this via `pg_class`'s unique index on `(relname, relnamespace)`), so

114/// `pg_matviews` already filters to `relkind = 'm'`. The `pg_namespace` +
115/// `pg_class` joins anchor the relation OID needed by `obj_description`.
116/// Postgres defers SELECT-list evaluation past `LIMIT`, so `obj_description`
117/// only runs for the page's rows — never the full schema.
118/// `pg_matviews.matviewowner` is already a role name, so no `pg_roles` join is
119/// needed. `populated` and `indexed` are projected directly from
120/// `pg_matviews.ispopulated` / `pg_matviews.hasindexes`. Matview names are
