Convert a Hex project (SQL cells, single-value/METRIC cells, EXPLORE charts, app layout) into a Sigma data model and matching workbook. Discovery via a Hex project export file (Hex's REST API does not expose cell content), calc translation, DM + workbook creation via REST, layout, and warehouse parity verification.

Take inventory of an IBM Cognos Analytics estate and produce a migration-readiness readout — content-tree counts, per-artifact conversion complexity (scored against the Cognos→Sigma converter's exact coverage), an estate-wide auto-migration percentage, a named gap analysis, and an effort/wave plan. Use when a user wants to scope a Cognos→Sigma migration, audit Cognos sprawl, or pick which modules / reports to convert first. Read-only, all-free, ~Tableau-assessment-style pre-scoping that complements (does not replace) a deeper paid engagement.

Migrate IBM Cognos Analytics content to Sigma. Use when the user has a Cognos Data Module, Framework Manager package, report (Report Studio / CA Reporting), or dashboard (exploration) and wants to recreate it in Sigma. Converts Data Module JSON → Sigma data model and report-spec XML → Sigma workbook, translating the Cognos expression DSL and flagging constructs with no clean Sigma analog. Dashboards (exploration JSON) are hand-authored per refs/dashboard-migration.md (tabs → separate Sigma pages). Discovery via the CA REST API.

Take inventory of a Sisense estate and produce a migration-readiness readout — ElastiCube/Live model counts, dashboard counts, a widget-type histogram, JAQL complexity, dataset/connection mix, and per-dashboard AUTO / HINT / MANUAL / UNHANDLED tags scored against the sisense-to-sigma converter's actual coverage. Use when a user wants to scope a Sisense→Sigma migration, audit BI sprawl, or pick which dashboards to convert first. Read-only, all-free pre-scoping over the Sisense REST API.

Migrate Sisense to Sigma. Use when the user has a Sisense instance — ElastiCube or Live data models and dashboards — and wants to recreate them in Sigma. Pulls the source live over the Sisense REST API (data model schema export + dashboards/widgets), converts the model to a Sigma data model and the dashboards to a Sigma workbook (pivot2→pivot-table, indicator→KPI, chart/*→chart, filters→controls), translates JAQL formulas to Sigma formulas, and verifies data parity by running JAQL against Sisense and comparing to the Sigma query. For a full migration it lands the source data in Snowflake so both tools read the same warehouse. Translates what maps cleanly and flags what doesn't (custom JAQL, BloX/plugin widgets, scripted dashboards) instead of emitting wrong logic.

Take inventory of a Metabase instance and produce a migration-readiness readout — collection-tree counts, per-artifact conversion complexity (scored against the Metabase→Sigma converter's exact coverage), an estate-wide auto-migration percentage, a named gap analysis, and an effort/wave plan. Use when a user wants to scope a Metabase→Sigma migration, audit Metabase sprawl, or pick which models / questions / dashboards to convert first. Read-only, all-free, ~Tableau-assessment-style pre-scoping that complements (does not replace) a deeper paid engagement.

Migrate Metabase content to Sigma. Use when the user has Metabase questions, models, or dashboards and wants to recreate them in Sigma. Converts MBQL cards/models (+ database metadata) → Sigma data model and dashboards → Sigma workbooks, translating MBQL expressions/aggregations and flagging constructs with no clean Sigma analog. Discovery via the Metabase REST API (API key or session token) — works on open-source and Pro/EE alike.

Convert a Looker instance (LookML semantic model + dashboards) into a Sigma data model and matching workbook(s). Use when the user has Looker content — LookML projects, explores, or dashboards (user-defined OR LookML-defined) — and wants to recreate it in Sigma. Discovery via the Looker REST API 4.0 / Looker MCP server (or LookML files offline), model conversion via the convert_lookml_to_sigma converter, dashboard → workbook conversion from the Looker Dashboard API JSON, build via the Sigma REST API, and 3-way parity verification against the source warehouse — driven by `scripts/*`.

Migrate MicroStrategy (Strategy One) content to Sigma. Use when the user has MicroStrategy dossiers, reports, or a classic schema (attributes / facts / metrics) and wants to recreate them in Sigma. Extracts the dossier + full semantic model over the MSTR REST API into a bundle, converts it to a Sigma data model + workbook, reproduces Analytical-Engine row-collapse quirks deterministically, and verifies row-level parity. Live-validated with exact parity on the classic-schema grid path.

Convert a Power BI report + semantic model into a Sigma data model and matching dashboard. Use when the user has a Power BI report (in Power BI Service / Fabric, or a .pbix/.pbit file) and wants to recreate it in Sigma. Covers connecting to Power BI with no Entra app, extracting the model (TMSL) + report layout (PBIR/Report-Layout), converting via the sigma-data-model MCP, posting the data model + workbook via REST, and parity verification. Can also author dashboards back INTO Power BI via the Fabric write API.

Convert a Qlik Sense / Qlik Cloud app into a Sigma data model and matching workbook. Use when the user has a Qlik Cloud tenant/app and wants to recreate it in Sigma. Discovery via qlik-cli (Engine + REST), Qlik-expression → Sigma-formula translation via the convert_qlik_to_sigma converter, data model + workbook creation via the Sigma REST API, and parity verification against the source warehouse. Requires qlik-cli + a Sigma SIGMA_API_TOKEN.

Convert an Amazon QuickSight analysis or dashboard into a Sigma data model and matching dashboard. Use when the user has a QuickSight analysis/dashboard and wants to recreate it in Sigma. Covers AWS-CLI extraction of the analysis definition + datasets + data sources, calc-field / data-prep translation via the convert_quicksight_to_sigma MCP, posting the data model + workbook via the Sigma REST API, layout, and parity verification against the same warehouse.

Convert a Tableau datasource or workbook into a Sigma data model and matching dashboard. Use when the user has a Tableau datasource, TDS file, or Tableau workbook and wants to recreate it in Sigma. Discovery, calc-field translation, data model + workbook creation via REST API, layout generation, and parity verification — driven by `scripts/*.rb`.

Convert a ThoughtSpot model/worksheet and its Liveboards into a Sigma data model and matching dashboards. Use when the user has a ThoughtSpot instance (or exported TML) and wants to recreate it in Sigma. Covers discovery (TML export), data-model conversion, workbook build, layout, and parity verification driven by scripts/.

Take inventory of a Power BI / Fabric tenant and produce a migration-readiness readout — environment counts, per-semantic-model DAX complexity (measures / calc columns / calc tables / RLS / DirectQuery / warehouse sources from M), per-report visual complexity, refresh history, a DAX-convertibility score against the Sigma coverage buckets, and a value/cost-ranked migration shortlist. Use when a user wants to scope a Power BI→Sigma migration, audit BI sprawl, or pick which reports to convert first. READ-ONLY — never writes to Power BI or posts to Sigma. Lightweight, device-code auth (no Entra app). Feeds the powerbi-to-sigma conversion skill.

Use to scope a Qlik→Sigma migration or audit BI sprawl. qlik-cli driven; hands off to qlik-to-sigma.

Take inventory of a Tableau Cloud site and produce a migration-readiness readout — environment counts, licenses, datasource mix, refresh history, per-workbook usage, per-workbook complexity (via .twb gap-scan), and a value/cost-ranked migration shortlist. Use when a user wants to scope a Tableau→Sigma migration, audit BI sprawl, or pick which workbooks to convert first. Lightweight (~90s) MCP-driven pre-scoping; complements Hakkoda's deeper Assessment App rather than replacing it.

Take inventory of a ThoughtSpot instance and produce a migration-readiness readout — models/worksheets, Liveboards, Answers, tables, connections, per-object usage (views + distinct users from TS: BI Server), per-Liveboard chart-type mix and complexity, ownership concentration, Embrace-vs-Falcon data-source patterns, and a value/cost-ranked migration shortlist. Use to scope a ThoughtSpot→Sigma migration or audit BI sprawl. Read-only.
