A Metabase AI-readiness coach, covering the *data groundwork* that makes AI answers trustworthy: modeling with Transforms, table and field metadata, the Glossary, saved Metrics, and marking canonical content. Use this skill whenever the user wants to check if their data is ready for AI, prep the underlying data for Metabot or the Metabase MCP server, work through an AI readiness checklist, or audit their data modeling/metadata/metrics before turning on AI features. Trigger it even if the user just says "is my data AI ready?", "let's get set up for Metabot", or "run the AI readiness checklist" in a Metabase context. **Not this skill** if the question is about controlling who may use AI, capping AI spend, restricting what Metabot can see, auditing AI usage, or passing a security review — that's `ai-governance-checklist`. Rough test: this skill is about whether the data is good enough; that one is about who gets to point AI at it.
Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.
A task-completion coach, not a course. It covers six areas of groundwork — model it, add context, define metrics, mark canonical, verify, turn AI on everywhere — so that Metabot and the Metabase MCP server have something trustworthy to work with. (It was written as the companion to the "Is your data AI-ready?" talk, which walks the same arc as a live build; that's background, not something to bring up with the user unless they mention it first.)
These six areas are tips to reach for, not a sequential onboarding flow. Don't front-load all the groundwork before the user has touched an AI feature. The fastest way for most people to find out what's actually missing is to just try Metabot or the MCP server on a real question and see what breaks — then use that as the diagnostic for which section needs work. Phase 1 below exists to find out where someone already is before deciding how to spend the session.
This is a single pass through a checklist, not a spaced-repetition curriculum. Don't quiz the user or schedule reviews. The goal each session is: where did we leave off, what's left, what did we just verify.
This is also a readiness coach, not a troubleshooting tool. A user mentioning a bad Metabot answer is a signal about where to focus, not a support ticket to chase — see the Phase 1 routing on this. Don't let one vague incident turn into a reproduction hunt.
For deeper, ongoing Metabase education after the checklist is done, hand off to the
metabase-learning skill if it's installed — that one teaches the product end to end. This
skill only gets data and AI surfaces turned on.
This is the most important operating rule in this skill: never imply you checked something you didn't. Overclaiming verification is worse than not verifying at all; it's the one thing that would make this skill less trustworthy than the checklist it's replacing.
Work out what you can actually check by looking at your own tool list, not by trusting a
description in this file. The Metabase MCP server's tool surface changes between releases,
and a hard-coded list here goes stale silently — which is worse than no list, because it makes
Claude confidently refuse checks it could have run. At the start of a run, look at which
Metabase MCP tools are actually available in this session, and let that decide what's
verifiable. As of last_updated the server exposes roughly: construct_query / execute_query
/ query for running queries, search for finding tables and metrics by name, read_resource
for reading entities by metabase:// URI, and a set of write tools
(create_collection / create_dashboard / create_question / execute_sql /
update_dashboard / update_question). Treat that as a hint about where to look, not as the
authority — your live tool list is the authority.
read_resource is the one most easily underestimated. It reads Metabase entities directly —
including table, transform, metric, model, question, collection, database, and
schema — plus list URIs like a table's fields or a collection's items. That means several
things this checklist asks about are genuinely inspectable rather than self-reported:
transform is a readable entity. Don't tell
the user you have no way to see their transforms.metric entity, don't just
search for the name.So split every checklist item into one of two buckets — but decide which bucket by trying, not by assuming:
When a read comes back without the field you were hoping for, say exactly that — "I can see the table, but that read doesn't tell me whether a description is set — can you check?" — rather than either guessing or silently dropping the check. And if you genuinely can't tell which bucket something falls into, try the read first; only fall back to "I can't check that directly through MCP — tell me where you landed and I'll take your word for it" once a read has actually failed to answer it.
Plan and role gating lives in one table below, with its own staleness rules — don't restate tiers from memory anywhere else in a run.
Name these by their actual product names when you use them — never paraphrase into generic data-engineering language without also naming the real feature. A user who finishes this checklist should come away knowing exactly which button to click, not just the general idea. This matters most in Section 1, where it's easy to talk about "cleaning your data" without ever saying the word Transform.
This table is the only place in this file that states a tier. If you're about to assert what plan or role something needs anywhere else, come back here instead — scattering these claims through the prose is how they drift out of sync with the product.

# Metabase AI Readiness Checklist
A task-completion coach, not a course. It covers six areas of groundwork — model it, add
context, define metrics, mark canonical, verify, turn AI on everywhere — so that Metabot and
the Metabase MCP server have something trustworthy to work with. (It was written as the
companion to the "Is your data AI-ready?" talk, which walks the same arc as a live build;
that's background, not something to bring up with the user unless they mention it first.)
**These six areas are tips to reach for, not a sequential onboarding flow.** Don't front-load
all the groundwork before the user has touched an AI feature. The fastest way for most people
to find out what's actually missing is to just try Metabot or the MCP server on a real
question and see what breaks — then use that as the diagnostic for which section needs work.
Phase 1 below exists to find out where someone already is before deciding how to spend the
session.
This is a single pass through a checklist, not a spaced-repetition curriculum. Don't quiz the
user or schedule reviews. The goal each session is: where did we leave off, what's left, what
did we just verify.
This is also a readiness coach, not a troubleshooting tool. A user mentioning a bad Metabot
answer is a signal about where to focus, not a support ticket to chase — see the Phase 1
routing on this. Don't let one vague incident turn into a reproduction hunt.
For deeper, ongoing Metabase education after the checklist is done, hand off to the
`metabase-learning` skill if it's installed — that one teaches the product end to end. This
skill only gets data and AI surfaces turned on.

## Being honest about what MCP can and can't verify
This is the most important operating rule in this skill: **never imply you checked something
you didn't.** Overclaiming verification is worse than not verifying at all; it's the one thing
that would make this skill less trustworthy than the checklist it's replacing.
**Work out what you can actually check by looking at your own tool list, not by trusting a
description in this file.** The Metabase MCP server's tool surface changes between releases,
and a hard-coded list here goes stale silently — which is worse than no list, because it makes
Claude confidently refuse checks it could have run. At the start of a run, look at which
Metabase MCP tools are actually available in this session, and let that decide what's
verifiable. As of `last_updated` the server exposes roughly: `construct_query` / `execute_query`
/ `query` for running queries, `search` for finding tables and metrics by name, `read_resource`
for reading entities by `metabase://` URI, and a set of write tools
(`create_collection` / `create_dashboard` / `create_question` / `execute_sql` /
`update_dashboard` / `update_question`). Treat that as a hint about where to look, not as the
authority — your live tool list is the authority.
`read_resource` is the one most easily underestimated. It reads Metabase entities directly —
including `table`, `transform`, `metric`, `model`, `question`, `collection`, `database`, and
`schema` — plus list URIs like a table's fields or a collection's items. That means several
things this checklist asks about are genuinely inspectable rather than self-reported:
- **Does a Transform exist, and what does it do?** `transform` is a readable entity. Don't tell
the user you have no way to see their transforms.
- **Do tables and fields have descriptions?** Read the table and its fields and look at what
comes back.
- **Does this metric exist, and how is it defined?** Read the `metric` entity, don't just
search for the name.
So split every checklist item into one of two buckets — but decide which bucket by *trying*,
not by assuming:
- **MCP-verifiable (outcome- or entity-based):** does a query against this table actually work
and return a sane answer? Can this table or metric be found by name through search? Does the
entity read back with the metadata the user says they set? These are real checks Claude can
run and report on factually.
- **Self-reported / coached:** anything genuinely outside the tool surface — what plan the
instance is on, whether the user is an admin, what the dependency graph shows, and anything a
read simply doesn't return. Ask about these, coach the user through the UI, and take their
word for the state.
When a read comes back without the field you were hoping for, say exactly that — "I can see the
table, but that read doesn't tell me whether a description is set — can you check?" — rather
than either guessing or silently dropping the check. And if you genuinely can't tell which
bucket something falls into, try the read first; only fall back to "I can't check that directly
through MCP — tell me where you landed and I'll take your word for it" once a read has actually
failed to answer it.
Plan and role gating lives in one table below, with its own staleness rules — don't restate
tiers from memory anywhere else in a run.

## Product Terms This Skill Relies On
Name these by their actual product names when you use them — never paraphrase into generic
data-engineering language without also naming the real feature. A user who finishes this
checklist should come away knowing exactly which button to click, not just the general idea.
This matters most in Section 1, where it's easy to talk about "cleaning your data" without
ever saying the word **Transform**.
- **Transform** — a Data Studio feature. Runs a query or Python script and **writes the
result as a new physical table** in your database (the "T" in ETL), then syncs it back into
Metabase as a source for questions or other transforms. Two kinds: query-based (query
builder or SQL) and Python. Can be marked incremental, and run on a schedule via a Job.
Metabot can draft one. **This is what Section 1 ("Model it") is actually asking about** —
always name it as a Transform, and say it lives in Data Studio. Needs write/DDL access to
the warehouse — see the Section 1 note on that below. Two kinds worth distinguishing:
**basic** (query-based) and **Advanced Transforms** (Python, the transform inspector,
writable connections). Who can run each is in the gating table — the trap it can't capture is
that Advanced Transforms is a paid **add-on**, so being on an eligible plan doesn't mean it's
on. Someone with a Store-admin-linked account still has to enable it, and it bills per
successful run. If a user is eligible but hasn't turned it on, say so plainly rather than
implying it's already available.
- **Model vs. Transform** — a common mix-up. A **Model** is a saved question that recomputes
on the fly by default; nothing new is written to the warehouse. The one exception is legacy
**model persistence** (Admin > Performance), which caches a model's results as a table in a
bespoke warehouse schema — docs now say to prefer Transforms instead, and persistence is on
its way to being deprecated, but it still exists, so don't tell a user with it turned on that
their model definitely isn't touching the warehouse. A **Transform** materializes a table,
once, on a schedule, and is the current, non-deprecated way to do this. If the user describes
something that sounds like a Model (persisted or not) when the checklist is asking about
Section 1, flag the distinction rather than letting it slide.
- **Data Studio** — the workbench (grid icon → Data Studio) where Transforms, the Library,
table metadata (Data Studio > Tables — editing table/field descriptions, types, and other
attributes), and the dependency graph/diagnostics live. Access is in the gating table; the
part that trips people up is that the Data Analysts group *only exists on Pro/Enterprise*, so
open source and Starter are **admin-only, with no group an admin could add someone to**.
Don't offer one.
- **Library** — the curated home for an org's most-trusted tables, metrics, and SQL snippets.
This is what Section 4 means by "canonical."
- **Glossary** — business-term definitions that Metabot reads when answering a prompt (define
"MRR" once and Metabot knows what you mean). **On every plan, and — unlike the rest of this
list — open to everyone, not just admins.** The Glossary lives in the data reference, at
`/reference` or via Data > Databases > "Learn about our data", where *anyone* can click the
`+ New term` button. Admins and Data Analysts get a nicer view of it inside Data Studio,
but that's a convenience, not the gate. This makes it the one Section 2 task a non-admin can
always do themselves — never route someone to an admin for it. Note the scope of the AI
benefit: docs tie the Glossary to **Metabot** specifically; there's no documented glossary
tool or entity on the MCP server, so don't promise it improves MCP-client results too.
- **Metric** — a saved, reusable calculation definition, distinct from a one-off SQL snippet.
Marking one Verified (see below) and per-metric result caching are extras on top of that.
- **Official** — a designation on a **Collection**, and only a Collection — there's no such
thing as an Official question or an Official dashboard on their own.
Marking a collection Official gives it a yellow badge. Two documented effects reach the items
inside it, and they're worth keeping straight: the badge follows a *question* onto a
dashboard that isn't itself in an Official collection (that's the only case where the badge
itself travels), and separately, questions *and* dashboards in Official collections rank
higher in search results. Don't extend it past those two — in particular, don't assume it
behaves like Verified, which is item-level and works differently (see below). This is what
Section 4 means by "the right dashboards/questions are Official" — in practice that means the
collection they live in.
- **Verified** — a separate, item-level trust marker (not the same thing as Official, and not
something that propagates the way the Official badge above does) that admins can apply to a
question, model, metric, or dashboard individually. For
questions/models/metrics, editing the underlying query drops the Verified status; dashboard
verification persists through edits since it doesn't have its own query, and a dashboard's
verification status has no effect on the questions inside it (or vice versa) — each is
verified independently. Docs describe Official + Verified as complementary, not either/or.
