Questions become governed Cube queries — never raw SQL. Every step shows up below, including the ones the gate rejects.

The welcome screen. Suggestions come from what your model actually serves, views first.
The welcome screen suggests up to four questions based on your model. Click one, or type your own:
What was revenue by region last quarter?
You see each step as it happens:
- the agent searching the model for the right measures and dimensions;
- the Cube query it wrote — and, if the query was wrong, the rejection and the retry;
- the SQL Cube made from it;
- the result as a table and, where it fits, a chart.

One answer, top to bottom: the model search, a query the gate rejected with the nearest real name, the corrected query, the answer, and its rows.
The agent never writes SQL. Every query is checked against the model before it reaches the warehouse. More on what a chat shows in Ask questions.
