sqlprism CLAUDE.md

A set of project instructions for SQLPrism, a tool that indexes SQL, dbt, and SQLMesh code into a DuckDB-backed graph. dbt and SQLMesh are tools for building and managing data-transformation projects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Changing SQL, dbt, or SQLMesh parsing; maintaining the dependency graph; reindexing repositories or files; working on MCP tools and the command-line interface; and running checks and tests.
Why use it?
It helps agents work consistently on parsing, indexing, data lineage, and MCP tools without guessing the project structure or validation commands.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sqlprism CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 53 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

SQLPrism

SQL knowledge graph MCP server — indexes SQL, dbt, and sqlmesh repos into a DuckDB-backed graph for lineage, impact analysis, and column tracing.

Quick Reference

  • Language: Python 3.11+
  • Package manager: uv
  • Lint: uv run ruff check .
  • Type check: uv run ty check
  • Tests: uv run pytest tests/ -v
  • Single test: uv run pytest tests/test_indexer.py::test_name -v

Project Structure

src/sqlprism/
  core/
    graph.py       — DuckDB storage layer (MVCC, repo_type tracking)
    indexer.py      — Orchestrates parsing + indexing; file-level reindex with repo-type dispatch
    mcp_tools.py   — MCP server tools (non-blocking reindex, per-repo debounce)
    conventions.py — Convention inference engine (layers, naming, references, tags, overrides)
  languages/
    sql.py         — sqlglot-based SQL parser
    dbt.py         — dbt renderer (full project + selective render_models)
    sqlmesh.py     — sqlmesh renderer (full project + selective render_models)
    utils.py       — Shared venv/env utilities
  types.py         — Data classes (ParseResult, NodeResult, etc.)
  cli.py           — Click CLI (serve, reindex, reindex-file, reindex-sqlmesh, reindex-dbt, conventions, status, init)
tests/
  test_indexer.py    — Indexer + integration tests
  test_renderers.py  — dbt/sqlmesh renderer tests
  test_conventions.py — Convention engine + placement + tags tests
  test_sql_parser.py — SQL parser, lineage, and dialect tests

Conventions

  • Branch naming: <type>-<issue>-<short-description> (e.g. feat-11-indexer-reindex-files)
  • Types: feat (enhancement), fix (bug), chore (maintenance)
  • Issues: BDD format with Given/When/Then scenarios
  • PRs: Link with Closes #<number>, draft first, mark ready after lint+tests pass
  • Lint before PR: Always run uv run ruff check . and uv run ty check before creating or marking a PR ready

Skills

Custom skills are in .claude/skills/:

  • implementing-issues — End-to-end issue implementation with task planning and sub-agents
  • creating-branches-and-prs — Branch/PR naming conventions and creation workflow
  • reviewing-prs — Three-persona parallel PR review (SWE, data eng, QA)
  • managing-project-releases — Decompose releases into BDD issues with milestones

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
