Snowflake data cloud. dex explores schemas and authors dbt transformations with warehouse-aware cost guards.

Why connect Snowflake?

Connecting Snowflake means your team stops exporting it by hand and starts working with it directly inside Dex.

  • Query live data in Snowflake without exporting it or standing up a new pipeline
  • Keep dashboards and dbt models in sync with Snowflake instead of a stale nightly copy
  • Give teams governed, self-serve access to Snowflake under the same RBAC and audit trail as everything else

How it works

Connecting Snowflake to

Exmergo DexExmergo DexCost guard: compute time
1

Point Dex at Snowflake

Install Dex in Claude Code by running /plugin marketplace add exmergo/exmergo-agent-plugins and /plugin install dex@exmergo, then run /dex:explore against Snowflake. Dex connects with your Snowflake credentials directly, so they, and your raw data, never enter the model's context.

$ /plugin marketplace add exmergo/exmergo-agent-plugins

$ /plugin install dex@exmergo

$ /dex:explore

2

Explore before touching anything

/dex:explore profiles the schema it finds in Snowflake and proposes what to model before writing a single line of dbt.

$ /dex:explore

3

Author governed dbt models

/dex:transform writes and maintains the dbt models and tests that turn raw Snowflake data into trusted, reusable tables in your project.

$ /dex:transform

4

Stay inside a cost guard

Dex enforces a cost guard on every query it runs against Snowflake, so exploration never turns into a surprise bill.

5

Catch drift automatically

/dex:maintain flags it when Snowflake's schema changes and proposes the fix, instead of letting your dbt project silently drift out of sync.

$ /dex:maintain
