Add <leader>dr (dbt run), <leader>dc (dbt compile), and <leader>dt (dbt test) keybindings that format the current SQL file with sqlfmt via conform, save, then send the dbt command to toggleterm. Also add sql to treesitter ensure_installed for better SQL highlighting. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
- <leader>dR: dbt run -s model+ (model and all downstream dependents) - <leader>db: dbt build (run + test in DAG order) - <leader>ds: dbt show (preview query results without materializing) https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
- <leader>dg: jump to ref() or source() under cursor - <leader>df: fzf model picker with ctrl-r/b/t to run/build/test - <leader>do: open compiled SQL in readonly vsplit - <leader>d/: grep across all models (find columns, CTEs, etc.) Inspired by fzf-dbt CLI tool, adapted for neovim with fzf-lua. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
<leader>da: quick analysis with sonnet — reviews the current model and suggests improvements in non-interactive mode. <leader>dA: deep analysis with sonnet thinking — interrogates the duckdb database and cross-references with the current model to check data quality, joins, types, and more. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
The <leader>dA keymap now compiles the model first, then passes the compiled SQL and first 20 rows from dbt show as extra context to the claude agent for more informed analysis. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
Prompts now live in nvim/prompts/ as markdown files with {{var}}
template placeholders. The quick analysis prompt is loaded and
substituted in Lua; the deep analysis prompt uses sed at runtime
to inject compiled SQL and sample rows before passing to claude.
https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
- <leader>da now replaces the buffer with the annotated SQL (undo with :u) - Updated prompt to allow brief explanations alongside suggestions - All dbt commands (run, build, test, compile, show) now use uv run https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
<leader>dA now opens a new tmux window named 'dbt:<model>' that compiles the model, gathers sample rows, then starts an interactive claude session with that context so you can discuss the model. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
Runs dbt show --limit 20 asynchronously and displays the results in a read-only scratch buffer. Press q to close. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
fzf-lua is not installed; the config uses telescope via LazyVim. Converts wiki search, wiki insert link, dbt model finder (with C-r/C-b/C-t actions), and dbt grep to telescope equivalents. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
Pipes `dbt show --output csv --limit 500` into visidata via toggleterm. Formats and saves the file first like other dbt commands. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
Uses a dedicated toggleterm Terminal with close_on_exit and an on_exit callback instead of the shared terminal, so focus returns to the previous window when visidata is quit. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
dbt show only supports --output json/text, not csv. Use --output json --log-format json and pipe through a python script that extracts the preview data and converts to CSV. https://claude.ai/code/session_016johXLfEd6P4umaT14YQEQ
