Clear filtersCreates unit test YAML definitions that mock upstream model inputs and validate expected outputs. Use when adding unit tests for a dbt model or practicing test-driven development (TDD) in dbt.
Writes and executes SQL queries against the data warehouse using dbt's Semantic Layer or ad-hoc SQL to answer business questions. Use when a user asks about analytics, metrics, KPIs, or data (e.g., "What were total sales last quarter?", "Show me top customers by revenue"). NOT for validating, testing, or building dbt models during development.
Use when creating or modifying dbt Semantic Layer components — semantic models, metrics, dimensions, entities, measures, or time spines. Covers MetricFlow configuration, metric types (simple, derived, cumulative, ratio, conversion), and validation for both latest and legacy YAML specs.
Generates MCP server configuration JSON, resolves authentication setup, and validates server connectivity for dbt. Use when setting up, configuring, or troubleshooting the dbt MCP server for AI tools like Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code.
Audits dbt documentation coverage and drafts missing model/column descriptions in the project's own house style, one folder at a time, for human review. Use when documenting undocumented models, backfilling missing YAML descriptions, auditing doc coverage, or keeping schema YAML in sync with model SQL — especially on multi-contributor projects where new models routinely land undocumented.
Diagnoses dbt Cloud/platform job failures by analyzing run logs, querying the Admin API, reviewing git history, and investigating data issues. Use when a dbt Cloud/platform job fails and you need to diagnose the root cause, especially when error messages are unclear or when intermittent failures occur. Do not use for local dbt development errors.
Builds and modifies dbt models, writes SQL transformations using ref() and source(), creates tests, and validates results with dbt show. Use when doing any dbt work - building or modifying models, debugging errors, exploring unfamiliar data sources, writing tests, or evaluating impact of changes.
Use when a user needs help triaging dbt-core to dbt v2 migration errors. Runs dbt-autofix first, then classifies remaining errors into actionable categories (auto-fixable, guided fixes, needs input, blocked).
