dbt Core MCP Server: Interact with dbt projects via Model Context Protocol

dbt-core-mcp is a Model Context Protocol server that enables AI assistants to interact with dbt projects without requiring any dbt dependencies. It respects the user's Python environment, automatically detects dbt version and adapters, and provides tools for querying metadata, executing SQL, running models, testing, and lineage analysis. It supports natural language control and smart selection based on changes.
