Add new data-platform plugin for data engineering workflows with: MCP Server (32 tools): - pandas operations (14 tools): read_csv, read_parquet, read_json, to_csv, to_parquet, describe, head, tail, filter, select, groupby, join, list_data, drop_data - PostgreSQL/PostGIS (10 tools): pg_connect, pg_query, pg_execute, pg_tables, pg_columns, pg_schemas, st_tables, st_geometry_type, st_srid, st_extent - dbt integration (8 tools): dbt_parse, dbt_run, dbt_test, dbt_build, dbt_compile, dbt_ls, dbt_docs_generate, dbt_lineage Plugin Features: - Arrow IPC data_ref system for DataFrame persistence across tool calls - Pre-execution validation for dbt with `dbt parse` - SessionStart hook for PostgreSQL connectivity check (non-blocking) - Hybrid configuration (system ~/.config/claude/postgres.env + project .env) - Memory management with 100k row limit and chunking support Commands: /initial-setup, /ingest, /profile, /schema, /explain, /lineage, /run Agents: data-ingestion, data-analysis Test suite: 71 tests covering config, data store, pandas, postgres, dbt tools Addresses data workflow issues from personal-portfolio project: - Lost data after multiple interactions (solved by Arrow IPC data_ref) - dbt 1.9+ syntax deprecation (solved by pre-execution validation) - Ungraceful PostgreSQL error handling (solved by SessionStart hook) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

/explain - dbt Model Explanation
Explain a dbt model's purpose, dependencies, and SQL logic.
Usage
/explain <model_name>
Workflow
-
Get model info:
- Use
dbt_lineageto get model metadata - Extract description, tags, materialization
- Use
-
Analyze dependencies:
- Show upstream models (what this depends on)
- Show downstream models (what depends on this)
- Visualize as dependency tree
-
Compile SQL:
- Use
dbt_compileto get rendered SQL - Explain key transformations
- Use
-
Report:
- Model purpose (from description)
- Materialization strategy
- Dependency graph
- Key SQL logic explained
Examples
/explain dim_customers
/explain fct_orders
