Available Tools
47 toolsbase_columnDescriptionBase ColumndescriptionARead-onlyIdempotent
List the column names, data types, and basic attributes for a single Teradata table or view. Use for straightforward questions like 'what columns does this table have?' or 'what are the fields and their types?'. For precise Teradata-specific type codes, character sets, decimal precision, index details, or bulk metadata across many objects, use base_columnMetadata instead.
Arguments: database_name - Database name. Defaults to '%' (all databases). table_name - Table or view name. Defaults to '%' (all tables). persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: persist, table_name, database_name.
base_columnMetadataBase ColumnmetadataARead-onlyIdempotent
Retrieve detailed technical column metadata for Teradata tables and views, including exact Teradata type codes, character sets (LATIN/UNICODE), decimal precision, scale, nullability, and index classification. Use when the user needs precise Teradata-specific column information, not just basic column names and types. For a simple list of columns and types for a single object, use base_columnDescription instead. Supports bulk retrieval across many objects with payload and time budgets.
Resolution paths: Tables (T, O, Q) — DBC.ColumnsVX + DBC.IndicesVX. No HELP COLUMN. Views (V) — HELP COLUMN with derived-table wrapper, the only reliable mechanism for resolving view column types.
Uses the native TeradataConnection cursor pattern, consistent with all other tools in this module.
Technical capabilities:
Exact Teradata type codes and their SQL type string equivalents
Character set information (LATIN, UNICODE, etc.)
Decimal precision and scale
Detection of broken/invalid views
Column-level metadata for all objects in a database at once
LARGE-SCALE USAGE GUIDANCE:
When retrieving metadata for many objects (e.g. all views in DBC), both the response payload and the execution time can exceed limits. Use these strategies to control both:
FILTER FIELDS: Pass only the columns you need via the
fieldsparameter. View rows via HELP COLUMN return ~49 fields by default; table rows via DBC.ColumnsVX return fewer. Trimming to 6-8 fields can reduce payload by 80%+. Three computed fields (ColumnTypeString, IndexTypeString, CharSetString) are always included automatically. Example: fields='ColumnName,ColumnType,ColumnLength,CharType, UpperCase,Nullable,Indexed?,Primary?,Unique?'EXCLUDE OBJECTS: Use
exclude_objectsto skip objects you do not need. Accepts SQL LIKE patterns (% wildcard) as a CSV. Applied before any metadata queries, so excluded objects consume zero time and zero payload. Example: exclude_objects='ResUsage%,%ResUsage%,Res%View'INCREASE PARALLELISM: Set
max_workersto 12-16 for large databases. Each worker gets its own Teradata session via conn.cursor(). Default is 8.FILTER BY KIND: Use
table_kindto limit to just the object types you need (e.g. 'V' for views only, 'T' for tables only).PAYLOAD BUDGET: Use
max_payload_kb(default 900) to set the maximum response payload size in kilobytes. When the accumulated result data approaches this limit, the tool stops collecting and returns what it has, plus aremaining_objectsCSV in metadata listing the unprocessed objects. Pass that CSV straight intoobject_nameon the next call for automatic continuation. This self-adapts to object sizes: small-column views fit more per call, large-column views page earlier.TIME BUDGET: Use
max_execution_seconds(default 180) to set the maximum wall-clock execution time. The tool monitors elapsed time as each object completes, and self-interrupts BEFORE the MCP transport timeout (typically 240s) kills the session without returning any data. When the time budget is reached, the tool returns all data collected so far plusremaining_objectsfor continuation — exactly the same pattern as payload budget. This is the key difference from an MCP timeout: a timeout returns NOTHING; a time budget returns EVERYTHING collected so far, plus a continuation token.
CONTINUATION PATTERN (automatic pagination): # Call 1 — starts processing, time or payload budget fills up result1 = base_columnMetadata(database_name='DBC', table_kind='V', ...) # metadata contains: remaining_objects='ViewX,ViewY,...'
# Call 2 — pass remaining_objects as object_name
result2 = base_columnMetadata(
database_name='DBC',
object_name='ViewX,ViewY,...', # from result1 metadata
...
)
# Repeat until metadata has no remaining_objects key.Typical call for a large database: base_columnMetadata( database_name='DBC', table_kind='V', exclude_objects='ResUsage%,%ResUsage%', fields='ColumnName,ColumnType,ColumnLength,CharType, UpperCase,Nullable,Indexed?,Primary?,Unique?', max_workers=16, max_payload_kb=900, max_execution_seconds=180 )
Arguments:
conn - TeradataConnection (injected by MCP server)
database_name - Name of the Teradata database to inspect
object_name - Optional: specific object name, or a CSV of
names. Also used for continuation: pass the
remaining_objects value from a previous
truncated call to resume.
If omitted, all objects matching table_kind
are processed.
table_kind - Optional: CSV of TableKind codes to filter by.
Examples: 'V' (views only), 'T,O' (tables +
NoPI), 'T,V' (tables and views). Defaults to
all qualifying object types (T, O, V, Q).
Tables (T, O, Q) use DBC.ColumnsVX +
DBC.IndicesVX. Views (V) use HELP COLUMN with
a derived-table wrapper to force type
resolution — this is the only reliable
mechanism for view column types.
Stored procedures (P, E), functions
(A, F, R, B, S), and macros (M) are not
supported. DBC.ColumnsVX does return parameter
rows for these object types, but their
parameter semantics (IN/OUT/INOUT,
SPParameterType) are incompatible with the
column metadata model this tool produces.
Support is a planned future enhancement.
max_workers - Optional: number of parallel threads for view
resolution via HELP COLUMN. Default: 8.
Table metadata is retrieved via DBC.ColumnsVX
and DBC.IndicesVX within the same worker pool.
fields - Optional: CSV of field names to include in the
response. Reduces payload size significantly.
Computed fields (ObjectName, ColumnTypeString,
IndexTypeString, CharSetString) always included.
exclude_objects - Optional: CSV of object name patterns to
exclude. Uses SQL LIKE-style % wildcards.
Applied before any database calls — excluded
objects incur zero query cost.
max_payload_kb - Optional: maximum response payload budget in KB.
Default: 900. Set to 0 to disable.
max_execution_seconds - Optional: maximum wall-clock execution time in
seconds. Default: 180. Set to 0 to disable.
*args - Positional bind parameters (reserved)
**kwargs - Named bind parameters (reserved)
Returns: MCP-compliant response via create_response() containing a list of column metadata records with normalised keys and four computed string fields per column:
ColumnTypeString - Human-readable SQL type (e.g. "VARCHAR(200)
UNICODE", "DECIMAL(18,2)", "INTEGER")
IndexTypeString - Index classification: 'UPI', 'NUPI', 'USI',
'NUSI', or None if not indexed.
For tables (T, O, Q): sourced from
DBC.IndicesVX — composite index grouping
(IndexNumber + ColumnPosition) is fully
preserved.
For views (V): sourced from HELP COLUMN
flags — reports column participation only,
not composite index grouping. Query
DBC.IndicesVX against the base table for
full composite index detail.
CharSetString - Character set name: 'LATIN', 'UNICODE',
'KANJI1', 'GRAPHIC', 'KANJISJIS', or None.
CaseSpecificityString - Case attribute: 'UPPERCASE', 'CASESPECIFIC',
'NOT CASESPECIFIC', or None if no explicit
case attribute is defined on the column.
When truncated, metadata will include:
remaining_objects - CSV of unprocessed object names
truncated - True
truncation_reason - 'time_budget_exceeded' or
'payload_budget_exceeded'
elapsed_seconds - Wall-clock time consumed (always present)
Inputs: database_name (required), fields, table_kind, max_workers, +4 more.
base_databaseListBase DatabaselistARead-onlyIdempotent
List all databases or schemas available in the Teradata system. ONLY call when the user explicitly asks which databases or schemas exist on the system. Do NOT call this tool as a preliminary step toward listing tables — if the user asks about tables without naming a database, ask them which database they mean rather than discovering databases first.
Arguments: scope - Filter scope: 'user' returns only user-created databases (excludes system databases), 'all' returns every database. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: scope, persist.
base_readQueryBase ReadqueryARead-onlyIdempotent
Execute a user-provided SQL query against Teradata and return the results. Use this tool ONLY when the user supplies an explicit SQL statement or a request that includes filter conditions (WHERE clause, aggregations, JOINs, etc.). Do NOT use for simply browsing or sampling rows from a table — use base_tablePreview for that. The sql parameter is required and must contain the full SQL text.
Arguments: sql - SQL text, with optional bind-parameter placeholders persist - Set to True to persist the results as a table and reuse it later. Recommended for large result sets. row_limit - Maximum rows to return (default 1000, ceiling 50000). Pass a higher value when you need more rows.
When the response metadata contains 'truncated: true', more rows exist beyond the limit. To get more data:
Pass a higher row_limit (up to 50000) to retrieve more rows in the response.
Use persist=true to write all rows to a volatile table and query it directly — this bypasses the row limit entirely and is the recommended approach for large result sets.
Returns: ResponseType: formatted response with query results + metadata (includes 'volatile_table' field in metadata if persist=True) (includes 'truncated' and 'row_limit' in metadata when results are capped)
Inputs: sql, persist, row_limit.
base_saveDDLBase SaveddlARead-onlyIdempotent
Extract the DDL for a Teradata table, view, or stored procedure and SAVE it as a .sql file on disk. Use this tool ONLY when the user explicitly wants to export, write, download, or persist DDL to a file. Do NOT use simply to display or view DDL in the conversation — use base_tableDDL to display DDL without saving.
Arguments: database_name - Database name (e.g., 'MKTG_USR') table_name - Object name (e.g., 'SP_LOAD_VARIABLES_ARGUMENTARIO_IAG_FICHA_CLIENTE'). Accepts comma-separated values for bulk retrieval. object_type - Type of object: 'PROCEDURE', 'TABLE', 'VIEW' (default: 'PROCEDURE') output_dir - Directory where to save the DDL file (default: './ddls_extracted')
Returns: ResponseType: formatted response with file path, size, and metadata
Inputs: table_name (required), database_name (required), output_dir, object_type.
base_tableAffinityBase TableaffinityARead-onlyIdempotent
Identify which tables in a database tend to co-occur together in the same SQL queries, revealing natural JOIN relationships and data affinity patterns. Use when the user asks which tables are queried together, what tables are related to a specific table, or what tables are commonly used in the same workflows. For access frequency, query counts, or per-user access statistics, use base_tableUsage instead.
Arguments: database_name - Database name table_name - Table or view name persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: table_name (required), database_name (required), persist.
base_tableDDLBase TableddlARead-onlyIdempotent
Return the CREATE TABLE DDL statement for a Teradata table, showing its full schema definition including column types, constraints, primary indexes, and keys. Use when the user wants the CREATE statement, the table definition, or needs to see how the table was built. If the user has not specified both a table name AND a database name, ask for clarification before calling — do not guess or use an empty database name. To save DDL to a file on disk, use base_saveDDL instead. For just column names and types, use base_columnDescription instead.
Arguments: table_name - Table name database_name - Database name persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: table_name (required), database_name (required), persist.
base_tableListBase TablelistARead-onlyIdempotent
List all tables and views within a specific Teradata database or schema. Pass a specific database name to list tables in that database only. Omit or leave empty to list tables from all databases. If the user does not name a database and you want to list tables from a single database, ask a clarifying question instead of returning results from all databases.
Arguments: database_name - Database name. Leave empty to list tables from all databases. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: persist, database_name.
base_tablePreviewBase TablepreviewARead-onlyIdempotent
Return a quick sample of the first few rows from a Teradata table or view so the user can see what data looks like, with no SQL required. Use this tool when the user wants to explore or peek at a table's contents without specifying conditions or writing a query. Do NOT use when the user provides a WHERE clause, filter, or explicit SQL statement — use base_readQuery for that.
Arguments: table_name - Table or view name database_name - Database name persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: table_name (required), persist, database_name.
base_tableUsageBase TableusageARead-onlyIdempotent
Report access frequency and per-user query patterns for tables and views in a Teradata database, showing which objects are most actively queried and by whom. Use when the user asks how often tables are accessed, which tables are most popular, or which users are running queries against a database. For discovering which tables appear together in the same queries, use base_tableAffinity instead.
Arguments: database_name - Database name. Leave empty for all databases. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: persist, database_name.
dba_databaseSpaceDba DatabasespaceARead-onlyIdempotent
Show disk space allocation for a specific named Teradata database. Use when the user asks how much space a particular database is using or how much has been allocated to it.

dba_flowControlDba FlowcontrolARead-onlyIdempotent
Report Teradata workload management flow control events showing when and how much the system throttled or delayed queries due to resource constraints. Use when the user asks about system throttling, flow control delays, or how often the workload manager imposed restrictions. For how long individual users personally waited in queues, use dba_userDelay instead.
Arguments: start_date - The start date for the query range in YYYY-MM-DD format. end_date - The end date for the query range in YYYY-MM-DD format. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: end_date (required), start_date (required), persist.
dba_resusageSummaryDba ResusagesummaryARead-onlyIdempotent
Report system-wide resource consumption (CPU, IO, memory) broken down by time period, application, workload type, or complexity class. Use when the user asks for system-level resource breakdowns, workload profiles, or consumption trends over a date range — not tied to a specific database. For per-database or per-user impact within a named database, use dba_tableUsageImpact instead.
Arguments: user_name - User name to filter by. Leave empty for all users. LogDate - Log date to filter by in YYYY-MM-DD format.

For table-level details within a database, use dba_tableSpace.
Arguments: persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: persist.
dba_tableSpaceDba TablespaceARead-onlyIdempotent
Show table-level disk space usage within a specific Teradata database, ranked by size. Use when the user asks which tables are largest or consuming the most storage within a named database.

Use when the user asks who is hitting a named database hardest, which users are most active, or which tables generate the most load. ONLY call when the user has specified a database name — if no database name appears in the message, ask for clarification. For system-wide CPU, IO, and memory metrics by time period or application, use dba_resusageSummary instead.
Arguments: database_name - Database name to analyze. Required — do not pass empty string. user_name - User name to analyze. Leave empty for all users. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: database_name (required), persist, user_name.
dba_userDelayDba UserdelayARead-onlyIdempotent
Report how long Teradata users waited in the query queue before their queries began executing. Use when the user asks about user wait times, queue delays, or how long users had to wait. For system-level throttling and workload management flow control events, use dba_flowControl instead.
Arguments: start_date - The start date for the query range in YYYY-MM-DD format. end_date - The end date for the query range in YYYY-MM-DD format. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: end_date (required), start_date (required), persist.
dba_userSqlListDba UsersqllistARead-onlyIdempotent
Retrieve SQL statements executed by a specific named user. Use when the user asks what queries a particular person or account has been running. ONLY call when the user has explicitly named a specific user account — if no user name appears in the message, ask for clarification. NEVER call with an empty user_name. Do NOT use for SQL history by table — use dba_tableSqlList when the user asks about queries against a specific table.
Arguments: user_name - User name to filter by. Required — do not pass empty string. no_days - Number of days to look back persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: user_name (required), no_days, persist.
graph_analyseDatabaseGraph AnalysedatabaseARead-onlyIdempotent
Composite graph analysis — runs findRootObjects, connectedComponents, detectCycles, and bfsLevels in a single MCP call with ONE shared edge fetch.
This tool eliminates the scalability bottleneck of serial MCP round- trips by combining four graph analyses that would otherwise require four separate tool calls, each independently fetching the same edge set from Teradata.
Performance vs individual tools:
1 SQL round-trip instead of 4 (shared edge fetch)
1 MCP response instead of 4 (eliminates stdio serialisation overhead)
Same algorithmic complexity (O(V+E) BFS, O(α·N) Union-Find, O(V+E) DFS)
In-memory edge sharing: all analyses operate on the same Python list
Use this for:
Full database migration readiness assessment
Pre-migration cycle + root + wave analysis in one call
Dashboard data population (all four analyses needed simultaneously)
Any workflow that would otherwise call 3+ individual graph tools
Arguments: container_pattern - str: CSV LIKE patterns for container scope. Supports wildcards (%) and CSV format. Examples: '%SALES%', '%SALES%,%FINANCE%', 'PROD_%'
CRITICAL: STRING type, not array.
CORRECT: container_pattern="%SALES%,%FINANCE%"
WRONG: container_pattern=["%SALES%", "%FINANCE%"]exclude_objects - str: CSV LIKE patterns to exclude. Default: '' (no exclusions)
top_n_roots - int: Number of top root objects (by downstream dependent count) to include in BFS wave analysis. Default: 4
max_depth_down - int: Maximum downstream BFS hops from roots. Default: 10
max_depth_up - int: Maximum upstream BFS hops from roots. 0 = skip upstream analysis. Default: 0
edge_repository - str: Edge repository view/table conforming to the Graph Edge Contract (Src_Container_Name, Src_Object_Name, Src_Kind, Tgt_Container_Name, Tgt_Object_Name, Tgt_Kind columns). Call graph_edgeContractDDL to generate one. Required parameter — no default.
Returns: ResponseType: single response containing all four analyses:
{ "root_objects": { "objects": [...], "summary": {...} }, "components": { "node_details": [...], "summaries": [...], "stats": [...] }, "cycles": { "details": [...], "summaries": [...], "stats": [...] }, "bfs_waves": { "nodes": [...], "cycle_candidates": [...], "summary": {...} }, "edge_stats": { "total_edges": N, "fetch_time_ms": N } }
Example calls:
Full analysis of Sales and Finance databases
handle_graph_analyseDatabase( conn=connection, container_pattern="%SALES%,%FINANCE%", edge_repository="MY_LINEAGE_DB.EdgeRepository" )
Single database family with top 8 roots
handle_graph_analyseDatabase( conn=connection, container_pattern="%FINANCE%", top_n_roots=8, edge_repository="MY_LINEAGE_DB.EdgeRepository" )
Exclude sandbox schemas
handle_graph_analyseDatabase( conn=connection, container_pattern="PROD_%,STAGE_%", exclude_objects="SANDBOX%,%.temp_%", edge_repository="MY_LINEAGE_DB.EdgeRepository" )
Inputs: container_pattern (required), top_n_roots, max_depth_up, max_depth_down, +2 more.
graph_bfsLevelsGraph BfslevelsARead-onlyIdempotent
Compute BFS shortest-path hop distances from one or more root nodes.
Pure-Python implementation — no stored procedure required.
WHEN TO USE THIS TOOL vs graph_traceLineage:
Use graph_bfsLevels when asked to:
Sequence objects for deployment or migration (ORDER BY downstream_level gives correct topological deployment order for root objects)
Group objects into migration waves (nearest_root identifies which of the input root tables each object belongs to)
Find which migration root table each object is closest to across a multi-root migration scope
Identify cycle members by depth (direction='BOTH' nodes with unequal absolute upstream/downstream levels are cycle candidates)
Count objects within N hops of a change (blast-radius sizing)
Answer "how far is object X from the migration root tables?"
Do NOT use graph_bfsLevels for general lineage tracing, impact path analysis, or questions about which specific objects depend on which. Use graph_traceLineage for those — it returns the full edge set with relationship detail. graph_bfsLevels returns distances and wave groupings, not dependency paths or edge detail.
KEY DISTINCTION — root_node_list accepts EXACT FQ names only (no wildcards). Use graph_findRootObjects first to identify the seed objects, then pass their exact FQ names here.
Arguments: root_node_list - str: CSV of exact fully-qualified root node names. No wildcards — exact names only.
SINGLE ROOT:
'DEV01_StGeo_STD_T.mortgage_account'
MULTIPLE ROOTS (CSV):
'DEV01_StGeo_STD_T.mortgage_account,
DEV01_StGeo_STD_T.mortgage_borrower,
DEV01_StGeo_STD_T.mortgage_property'
CRITICAL: Exact FQ names, no wildcards.
Use graph_findRootObjects or
graph_traceLineage first to discover names.max_depth_up - int: Maximum upstream hops to traverse. 0 = skip upstream analysis entirely. Default: 10
Upstream means "what this object DEPENDS ON" —
its sources, prerequisites, and ancestors.
For root objects with in-degree zero, upstream_level
will be NULL for all non-root nodes (correct).max_depth_down - int: Maximum downstream hops to traverse. 0 = skip downstream analysis entirely. Default: 10
Downstream means "what DEPENDS ON this object" —
its consumers, dependents, and impact radius.
For root objects with in-degree zero, downstream_level
will show positive values for all consumers (correct).exclude_objects - str: CSV of FQ object name LIKE patterns to exclude. Matched against both Src and Tgt sides of every edge. Python fnmatch is used for pattern matching (% → *). Example: 'DFJ%,C_D02%,%.temp_%' Default: '' (no exclusions)
include_containers - str: CSV of container name LIKE patterns to include. Only edges where BOTH Src and Tgt containers match at least one pattern are traversed. Python fnmatch used for matching (% → *). Empty = all containers included. Example: 'DEV01_StGeo%,MF_STGEO%,TABLEAU%,POWERBI%' Default: '' (all containers)
edge_repository - str: Edge repository view/table conforming to the Required parameter — no default.
Returns: ResponseType: formatted response with BFS node results + metadata. Schema is identical to handle_graph_bfsLevels (SP-based tool).
Response structure: { "nodes": [ { "node": "DEV01_StGeo_STD_T.mortgage_account", "container_name": "DEV01_StGeo_STD_T", "object_name": "mortgage_account", "object_kind": "Table", "upstream_level": None, // None (NULL) if unreachable or skipped "downstream_level": 0, // 0 for root, positive for consumers "nearest_root": "DEV01_StGeo_STD_T.mortgage_account", "direction": "ROOT", // ROOT / U / D / BOTH "is_root": "Y" }, ... ], "cycle_candidates": [...], // direction='BOTH' nodes with unequal // absolute upstream/downstream levels "summary": { "total_nodes": 46, "root_nodes": 3, "upstream_only": 12, "downstream_only": 28, "both_directions": 3, "cycle_candidates": 1, "max_upstream_depth": 4, "max_downstream_depth": 5, "nodes_per_nearest_root": {"DB.Root1": 20, "DB.Root2": 26}, "object_kind_counts": {"Table": 10, "View": 22, "Macro": 8, ...} } }
direction values: ROOT - One of the input root nodes U - Reachable upstream only (negative upstream_level) D - Reachable downstream only (positive downstream_level) BOTH - Reachable in both directions — possible cycle member. Unequal absolute levels indicate a back-edge (cycle). Equal absolute levels indicate a shared dependency.
Technical Implementation Notes:
One SQL round-trip to fetch all edges matching the container/exclusion filters. All BFS computation is then done in Python memory.
Standard queue-based BFS (O(V+E)) — optimal for unweighted graphs. This is more correct than the original Bellman-Ford style SQL relaxation loop that the SP inherited from the notebook.
Multi-source BFS: all root nodes are seeded simultaneously at level 0. Each non-root node settles at the distance to its nearest root, with ties broken deterministically by lexicographic root name order.
Upstream BFS follows Src→Tgt edges to discover Src-side ancestors.
Downstream BFS follows Tgt→Src edges to discover Tgt-side consumers.
This direction convention matches the corrected SP (Option B fix): upstream_level = NULL for root objects with in-degree zero (correct) downstream_level = positive for all consumers (correct)
Filter application order:
SQL WHERE clause: fetch only edges matching include_containers (both Src and Tgt containers must match at least one pattern)
Python post-filter: exclude edges where either endpoint matches an exclude_objects pattern (applied before building adjacency)
BFS depth cap: enforced during queue processing
Node metadata (container_name, object_name, object_kind) is derived from the edge set and stored in a node registry during the fetch phase.
Inputs: root_node_list (required), max_depth_up, max_depth_down, edge_repository, +2 more.
graph_connectedComponentsGraph ConnectedcomponentsARead-onlyIdempotent
Identify all Weakly Connected Components (WCC) in the dependency graph.
Pure-Python implementation — no stored procedure required. Issues a single SQL SELECT to fetch the scoped edge set, then performs Union-Find WCC partitioning entirely in the MCP server process.
A connected component is a maximal set of nodes where every node can reach every other node when edge direction is ignored. This partitions the graph into isolated sub-graphs.
Use this tool for:
Understanding graph structure and partitioning
Identifying isolated sub-graphs
Scoping downstream impact analysis to a single component
Pre-filtering before cycle detection (cycles exist only within a component)
Identifying "islands" of related objects for migration or refactoring
Estimating blast radius

Inputs: container_pattern (required), edge_repository, exclude_objects.
graph_detectCyclesGraph DetectcyclesARead-onlyIdempotent
Detect circular dependencies (cycles) in the dependency graph.
Pure-Python implementation — no stored procedure required. Issues a single SQL SELECT to fetch the scoped edge set, then performs WCC partitioning followed by iterative DFS cycle detection entirely in the MCP server process.
Use this tool for:
Validating graph integrity (DAG property)
Finding objects that form circular references
Identifying stub-then-replace code patterns
Debugging topological sort hangs
Pre-deployment cycle checks
Arguments: container_pattern - str: CSV LIKE patterns for container scope. Supports wildcards (%) and CSV format. Examples: 'DFJ%' — single database family '%WBC%,%StGeo%' — multiple families 'DEV01_%,DEV02_%' — multiple prefixes
exclude_objects - str: CSV LIKE patterns to exclude from the scan. Matches against container name (or DB.Object if the pattern contains a dot). Default: '' (no exclusions)
edge_repository - str: Edge repository view/table conforming to the Graph Edge Contract (Src_Container_Name, Src_Object_Name, Src_Kind, Tgt_Container_Name, Tgt_Object_Name, Tgt_Kind columns).

Inputs: container_pattern (required), edge_repository, exclude_objects.
graph_edgeContractDDLGraph EdgecontractddlARead-onlyIdempotent
Generate DDL for a Graph Edge Contract-conforming table or view.
This tool does NOT require a database connection — it generates DDL text from templates. No SQL is executed. The conn parameter is accepted for ModuleLoader calling convention compatibility but is not used.
Required columns in the generated schema (6): Src_Container_Name, Src_Object_Name, Src_Kind, Tgt_Container_Name, Tgt_Object_Name, Tgt_Kind
Optional enrichment columns (2): Edge_Relationship — nature of the edge (ETL_INPUT, ETL_OUTPUT, DIRECT…) Transformation_Type — process category (ETL, FEATURE_ENG, AGGREGATION…) These are ignored by graph analysis tools but useful for visualisation.
AI-Native Data Product shortcut: If you are working within an AI-Native Data Product, the view {ProductName}Semantic.lineage_graph (Observability Module v1.5) already conforms to this contract. You do not need to generate DDL — pass that view's fully-qualified name directly as edge_repository on any graph* tool. Example: edge_repository='StGeoMortgage_Semantic.lineage_graph'
Arguments: conn: TeradataConnection (unused — accepted for ModuleLoader compatibility). target_database: Database in which to create the edge repository. For AI-Native Data Products this is typically {ProductName}_Semantic. Example: 'StGeoMortgage_Semantic' object_name: Name for the edge table/view. Default: 'EdgeRepository' output_type: 'TABLE' or 'VIEW'. TABLE: generates CREATE TABLE DDL + separate sample DML. Includes all 6 required + 2 optional columns. VIEW: generates a CREATE VIEW template for mapping an existing lineage source to all 8 contract columns. Default: 'TABLE'
Returns: list[dict]: Response payload containing: - ddl: DDL script (CREATE TABLE/VIEW + COMMENTs) - sample_dml: Sample INSERT statements + validation query (TABLE only; absent for VIEW) - output_type: 'TABLE' or 'VIEW' - contract_version: Contract version string
Inputs: target_database (required), object_name, output_type. Returns: result
graph_findRootObjectsGraph FindrootobjectsARead-onlyIdempotent

Use this for:
Finding starting points for downstream impact analysis
Identifying source tables and base objects in data pipelines
Discovering independent objects that can be safely analysed in isolation
Understanding data flow origins in a schema or database
Planning migration or refactoring by identifying foundation objects
Arguments: container_pattern - str: Database/schema pattern(s) to search. SUPPORTS WILDCARDS (%) and CSV.

'DEV01_StGeo_STD_T,DEV02_WBC_STD_T' - Specific databases
'DEV01_%,DEV02_%' - All DEV01 and DEV02 databases
WHITESPACE HANDLING:
Whitespace is automatically trimmed, so these are equivalent:
✅ '%WBC%,%StGeo%' (no spaces)
✅ '%WBC%, %StGeo%' (spaces after commas - OK)
HOW TO PASS IN CODE:
Python: container_pattern="%WBC%,%StGeo%"
JSON: {"container_pattern": "%WBC%,%StGeo%"}

Results are filtered by exclude_objects and object_types parameters
Returns list of root objects suitable for downstream impact analysis
Inputs: container_pattern (required), object_types, return_format, edge_repository, +1 more.
graph_traceLineageGraph TracelineageARead-onlyIdempotent
Analyse object dependencies in Teradata. Supports wildcards (%) and CSV patterns.
Hybrid implementation — no stored procedure required. Python constructs Teradata recursive CTEs that execute entirely server-side. Only the reachable subgraph crosses the network — not the full edge table.
Examples: 'DB.Table' (single), '%WBC%.%' (wildcard), 'DB.T1,DB.T2' (CSV)
Finds upstream dependencies (what the object depends on) and downstream dependents (what depends on the object). Returns nodes and edges representing the dependency subgraph.
When multiple patterns are provided via CSV, one upstream CTE and one downstream CTE is executed per pattern. Results are merged and deduplicated by Python before assembly.
Use this for:
Impact analysis: "What breaks if I change or drop this object?"
Lineage tracing: "Where does this data come from?"
Dependency discovery: "What does this object use?"
Pre-deployment validation: checking impacts before making changes

Default chunk retrieval count is configurable
Default values are provided as fallback
TECHNICAL DETAILS:
Strips the '/rag ' prefix if present from user questions
Creates query table if it does not exist (columns: id, txt, created_ts)
BYOM approach: Uses mldb.ONNXEmbeddings UDF for tokenization and embedding
IVSM approach: Uses ivsm.tokenizer_encode and ivsm.IVSM_score functions
Both approaches store embeddings in configured output table
Uses cosine similarity via TD_VECTORDISTANCE for semantic search
Returns the top-k matching chunks from the configured vector store
Each result includes chunk text, similarity score, and metadata fields
CRITICAL ANSWERING RULES:
Answer ONLY using retrieved chunks - no external knowledge, speculation, or inference
Quote source content directly without paraphrasing, summarizing, or rewriting
If no relevant context found: "Not enough information found in the provided context"
If partial context: "The available context does not fully answer the question"
Include document/page references when available (e.g., "On page 2 of 'demo_policy.pdf'...")
Execute entire workflow silently without showing function calls to user - only show final answer
LANGUAGE RESTRICTIONS:
Do not say "According to the context" or "The context says" - just quote directly
Do not say "It can be inferred that..." - no inference allowed
Use exact or near-verbatim quotes only
No paraphrasing, summarizing, or adding transitions between quotes
Copy content precisely - no expansion or interpretation
BEHAVIORAL REQUIREMENTS:
Execute all RAG workflow steps silently without showing tool calls to users
Only display final answers based strictly on retrieved context chunks
Do not use external knowledge or speculation - only quote retrieved content directly
RAG mode only triggers with explicit /rag prefix - do not enter RAG mode implicitly
Hide all tool execution steps from user
Provide clean, direct response with only the answer based on retrieved chunks
This is a complete end-to-end RAG workflow - no additional tools needed
EXECUTION: Run completely silently - user only sees their question and the final context-grounded answer.
Inputs: question (required), k.
sec_rolePermissionsSec RolepermissionsARead-onlyIdempotent
List the database-level permissions granted to a named Teradata role. Use when the user asks what access rights a ROLE has, what a role is allowed to do, or what permissions have been granted to a role. Do NOT confuse with user-level queries — use sec_userDbPermissions for a user's direct permissions or sec_userRoles for a user's role membership. Requires a role name.
Arguments: role_name - Role name to analyze. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: role_name (required), persist.
sec_userDbPermissionsSec UserdbpermissionsARead-onlyIdempotent
List the database-level access permissions (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, etc.) granted directly to a specific Teradata user across all databases. Use when the user asks what a named user can DO in each database — their access rights, grants, or privileges on database objects. Do NOT use to see what roles a user has — use sec_userRoles for that. Requires a user name.
Arguments: user_name - User name to analyze. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: user_name (required), persist.
sec_userRolesSec UserrolesARead-onlyIdempotent
List the roles currently assigned to a specific Teradata user account. Use when the user asks which roles a named user HAS, belongs to, or has been assigned. Do NOT use to see the permissions of those roles — use sec_rolePermissions for that. Do NOT use to see a user's direct database privileges — use sec_userDbPermissions for that. Requires a user name.
Arguments: user_name - User name to analyze. persist - If True, materializes result as a volatile table and returns table name
Inputs: user_name (required), persist.

TDQS
Scored across 47 tools
Most tools have clearly distinct purposes with explicit cross-references ('use X instead of Y'), making boundaries clear. Some overlap exists between base_tableUsage and dba_tableUsageImpact (both report table access/user activity), and the dense dba_* and qlty_* families could be confused at a glance, but the descriptions mitigate this well.
Prefix-based categories (base_, dba_, qlty_, graph_) provide useful structure, but case conventions are inconsistent: camelCase (base_readQuery), PascalCase (rag_Execute_Workflow, sql_Execute_Full_Pipeline), and snake_case (plot_polar_chart) are all mixed. Verb usage also varies, with some names lacking verbs entirely (base_columnDescription), though the names remain readable overall.
47 tools is well into 'tool sprawl' territory and exceeds the 25+ threshold for a heavy surface. The server bundles many distinct modules (RAG, SQL clustering, plotting, graph lineage, DBA, security, quality) into one MCP server, which makes scanning and selecting the right tool difficult. The count reflects breadth, but the scope is too large for a single coherent toolset.
For an analytics/observability-focused server, coverage is extensive: querying, metadata exploration, DBA monitoring, security permissions, data quality, lineage analysis, charting, and RAG workflows are all represented. The main gaps are write operations (no data modification, DDL execution, or user/role management), but these appear deliberately out of scope. Minor gaps like bulk export or scheduling are workable around.
