dbt (dbt platform remote MCP)

Official MCP Paid, self-serve RevOps Infra RESEARCHED Checked 2026-09-07
RESEARCHED Facts from public sources with URLs. No usage claims. Nobody has run this tool. The other tier is BENCH-TESTED, which means Andrew personally ran the tool on a stated date and cannot be bought at any price. Across the whole directory that count is 1.

What it does
The transformation layer of the modern data stack: SQL models, tests and documentation compiled and run against a warehouse, with a hosted "dbt platform" (formerly dbt Cloud) that adds scheduling, a Semantic Layer, a Catalog and a remote MCP server.
AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it
dbt Copilot (AI-assisted model and test authoring) and the text_to_sql MCP tool are the AI surface; the docs state "Only text_to_sql consumes your dbt Copilot action allotment. Other MCP tools do not." The rest of the MCP is metadata, Semantic Layer queries and SQL execution.
RevOps role
The modelling layer between the warehouse and reverse-ETL; the MCP lets an agent read model lineage and metrics from the Semantic Layer and, with the right token, run SQL, instead of guessing at raw tables.
MCP server
Status bucket
Official MCP
Auth
oauth (beta) or token. The docs state "OAuth lets you connect to the remote MCP server without copying API tokens into your MCP client" and limit OAuth to "Starter, Enterprise, or Enterprise+" accounts; token auth sends "Authorization: Token YOUR_DBT_ACCESS_TOKEN" (or Bearer) plus an x-dbt-prod-environment-id header, and "If you plan to use execute_sql with token-based auth, you must use a Personal Access Token (PAT)"; "Service tokens do not work for execute_sql".
Parsed URLs
4 found in the mcp_url field
Endpoint probe
not probed yet

The vendor ships and maintains the server itself. A wrapper built by Zapier, Composio or a similar third party does not count as official. The status was established on 2026-09-07 and the MCP URL has not been probed live yet.

mcp_status, verbatim from the file:

official

mcp_url, verbatim from the file:

https://YOUR_DBT_HOST_URL/api/ai/v1/mcp (per account, for example https://cloud.getdbt.com/api/ai/v1/mcp/; docs: https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/dbt-ai/setup-remote-mcp; open-source local server: https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-mcp)

What this server exposes

Not harvested yet. Unmeasured, not empty: nobody has read this server's tool list, so this page says nothing about what it exposes.

141 of the 741 entries that record an official or community MCP server carry a harvested tool list. The other 600 are unmeasured, which is not the same as empty. Harvest last run 2026-09-27. The full roll up is on the tools index.

Command line

No CLI found by the 2026-09-27 harvest across vendor docs, npm, PyPI, Homebrew and GitHub. That is a probe result, not proof of absence.

Access gate
Gate bucket
Paid, self-serve
Can a solo operator reach it
Yes, by paying, no sales call

api_gate, verbatim from the file:

paid - the pricing page lists Developer as free (one seat, "3,000 successful models built per month", with no API access in its feature list), Starter at "$100 per user/month" whose feature list includes "API access", and Enterprise and Enterprise+ at custom pricing; the remote MCP's OAuth path is documented for Starter and above only.

API documentation

No documentation URL recorded.

727 of 1252 entries are in the same position. Blank is legal and it is published as blank.

GitHub health

Not measured. github_url, github_stars, github_last_commit and github_archived are null on every entry in this build.

The refresh rail specced in SPEC section 7.2 has not been run. An unstamped star count is a lie, so nothing is shown rather than something stale.

A github.com URL already appears somewhere in this entry, which is a seed for that rail and not a measurement of repo health:

Kind is a heuristic guessed from the repository name, topics and description, not a fact the vendor stated. A repository count is activity, not a verdict. Read 2026-09-08.

Jobs it can do

No job tag on this entry.

981 of 1,252 entries are untagged. An empty list here means nobody has tagged this, not that the tool does nothing. The vocabulary is closed, so a tool whose job is genuinely not in it stays blank rather than being forced into the nearest tag.

Sources

4 source URLs. Raw sources field, verbatim:

https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/dbt-ai/setup-remote-mcp, https://www.getdbt.com/pricing, https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-mcp, https://cloud.getdbt.com/api/ai/v1/mcp/

Notes, verbatim from the file
Probed 2026-09-07: POST of an MCP initialize to https://cloud.getdbt.com/api/ai/v1/mcp/ returned HTTP 401 with an nginx "401 Authorization Required" page; the control POST to /zzz-not-a-route on cloud.getdbt.com returned 405 MethodNotAllowed from a storage front end. The two paths are handled by different layers and the 401 is specific to the API route, but the control did not return 404, so this is recorded as a live auth-gated server behind a non-standard control result. The endpoint is per account (the docs say to copy the "MCP Endpoint URL" from Account settings, Access URLs), which is why the entry carries the pattern and a representative host rather than a single canonical URL. The free Developer plan is real but its pricing card lists no API access, so a solo operator should expect the remote MCP to need Starter. 2026-09-07: https://cloud.getdbt.com/api/ai/v1/mcp/ returned 401 to an MCP initialize POST (https://cloud.getdbt.com/api/ai/v1/mcp/).
