AI Copilot. Credit Usage Visibility: users can now see how many AI credits have been used out of their total available balance — shown as used / total — directly inside SqlDBM Copilot. This gives teams a simple way to monitor Copilot activity, understand usage, and track the value being generated from AI-assisted modeling

Semantic Models (Beta): Author a single, governed analytical layer on top of your physical schema and forward-engineer it into Snowflake Semantic Views or Cort…Semantic Models (Beta): Author a single, governed analytical layer on top of your physical schema and forward-engineer it into Snowflake Semantic Views or Cortex Analyst–compatible YAML. Define metrics, dimensions, facts, and filters once so every dashboard and AI engine uses one consistent definition. Works across all database types; never modifies the physical model.

• Two-layer design — set project-wide semantic defaults once; named models inherit them and override only the deltas (Reset to default / Push changes to default)
• Classify fields as Dimension, Time Dimension, or Fact; configure synonyms, SQL expressions, sample values, and access modifiers
• Model- and table-level metrics, table-scoped filters, verified NL-to-SQL queries, and custom AI instructions
• Semantic joins (Left/Right/Inner/Full/AsOf) from inherited or local relationships
• Forward Engineer to DDL (CALL SYSTEM$CREATE_SEMANTIC_VIEW_FROM_YAML) or Semantic YAML

Beta: no Reverse Engineering, branch merge, logical-to-physical, or Databricks metrics views yet.

• AI Context folder — users can now attach up to 5 files (4.5 MB each) directly in the Copilot chat sidebar
• (Fix) Fixed 400 error when attaching a Snowflake Key Pair user connection to a project from Settings

SqlDBM MCP Server: Connect SqlDBM to AI assistants (Claude and others) via Model Context Protocol — operate on data models in natural language without switching tools.

Key capabilities:

• Project discovery and schema summarization
• Revision diffing with auto-generated ALTER scripts
• PII column detection across the model
• Impact analysis with dependency graphs
• Naming convention audits
• Full DDL and JSON exports
• Cross-tool workflows (Jira, Confluence, Slack, GitHub, Google Drive)

Copilot v2.1 adds a human-in-the-loop clarification step, lets you copy full assistant replies, displays selected items above the input, and ships a batch of tool-handler fixes

• Clarification tool — Copilot asks the user to choose between options (flag / Snowflake tag / Model Governance field, etc.) instead of guessing on ambiguous requests
• Show selected items above the chat input
• Copy full agent response (all messages produced in reply to a single user message), not just one
• Expanded Copilot tools and updates to existing tools
• (Fix) Changing schema color via Copilot now also updates the colors of tables in that schema
• (Fix) Model Governance field tool now rejects label strings passed as selectValueIds with an actionable error, instead of silently saving an invalid binding
