Agentic schema drift auto-remediation
When the agent detects a schema change that would break a downstream semantic model, it now proposes and (with approval) applies a fix to the model YAML automatically. Includes a new drift.auto_remediate config option.
- New:
drift.auto_remediate: suggest | apply | offconfig option - Improved: drift severity scoring (breaking vs non-breaking column changes)
- New: Slack and email notifications for drift events
DuckDB connector + local development mode
Use DuckDB as a development-time warehouse for testing semantic models locally before deploying to Snowflake or BigQuery. The CLI now supports lmk dev which spins up a local DuckDB instance with your schema seeded from a sample snapshot.
- New: DuckDB connector (read/write)
- New:
lmk devcommand for local development - Fix: YAML validation now catches circular entity references
Sigma + Hex BI integrations
Loomkindle semantic models now push directly to Sigma and Hex as data model definitions. Metrics defined in YAML are automatically available as measures in both tools, with lineage tracked back to the source pipeline.
- New: Sigma integration (OAuth + model sync)
- New: Hex integration (dataset definitions)
- Improved: Lineage graph now includes BI layer nodes
REST API v1 + webhook support
The Loomkindle API is now stable at v1. Webhooks now support three event types: pipeline completion, schema drift, and agentic rerouting. All events include structured payloads with full context.
- New: REST API v1 (pipelines, metrics, schema)
- New: Webhook events (3 types)
- New: API token management in workspace settings
Multi-source pipelines + transform chains
Pipelines can now pull from multiple sources and apply a chain of YAML-defined transforms before loading to the destination. Transform steps are individually logged and observable.
CLI v0.2 + YAML schema validation
The CLI now validates semantic model YAML locally before sync, catching errors before they reach the cloud layer. Added lmk validate --strict for CI integration.
Private beta launch
Loomkindle private beta is live. Core features: Snowflake + BigQuery connectors, YAML semantic model authoring, basic ETL pipeline runner, and schema drift detection. 12 early access teams onboarded.
