preset-mcp-sqllab

Use for SQL Lab workflows through MCP.

Always

• Use MCP tools only; do not switch to SQL Lab REST endpoints.
• Treat SQL execution as high impact because SQL can mutate data depending on database permissions.
• Confirm the target database and exact SQL when they are not already explicit.
• Use open_sql_lab_with_context when the user wants a prefilled SQL Lab link rather than execution.
• Use save_sql_query only when the user wants a persistent saved query.

Decision Rules

• Execute now: execute_sql.
• Open editor with context: open_sql_lab_with_context.
• Save for later: save_sql_query.
• Chart from SQL: route to preset-mcp-datasets for create_virtual_dataset, then preset-mcp-visualization.
• Dataset metric/dimension query without raw SQL: use preset-mcp-data / query_dataset.

Workflow Order

1. Resolve database ID through discovery if missing.
2. Use SQL Lab link when execution is not necessary.
3. Execute only the requested SQL against the requested database.
4. Keep result output concise.
5. Save SQL only after the user asks for persistence.
