Agents
Agents
Use Altertable's agent in the app, or connect your own AI client through MCP. Agents can inspect catalogs, run SQL, and create analyses or data apps within the access you grant.
If you are new to Altertable, set up with your agent to connect MCP and get a first answer from your stack. The CLI is optional for terminal commands and local files.
Start with a question
Use Ask Altertable for questions in the Altertable app. If you already work in Claude, ChatGPT, or another AI client, connect that agent instead.
Add capabilities when you need them
- Use the CLI with agents for local files and terminal workflows.
- Add business context when the agent needs your metric definitions or project knowledge.
- Configure MCP to adjust environment access and scopes.
- Schedule recurring work when a question should run repeatedly.
