Snowflake Data Warehouse
Authentication
IMPORTANT: Credentials are injected automatically by a proxy layer. Do NOT check for SNOWFLAKE_PASSWORD in environment variables - it won't be visible to you. Just run the scripts directly; authentication is handled transparently.
Configuration environment variables you CAN check (non-secret):
SNOWFLAKE_ACCOUNT - Snowflake account identifierSNOWFLAKE_WAREHOUSE - Compute warehouseSNOWFLAKE_DATABASE - Default databaseSNOWFLAKE_SCHEMA - Default schema
MANDATORY: Schema-First Investigation
Always get the schema before writing queries.
GET SCHEMA / LIST TABLES → DESCRIBE TABLE → EXECUTE QUERY
Available Scripts
All scripts are in .claude/skills/database-snowflake/scripts/
get_schema.py - Get Database Schema (START HERE)
python .claude/skills/database-snowflake/scripts/get_schema.py
list_tables.py - List Tables
python .claude/skills/database-snowflake/scripts/list_tables.py [--database DB] [--schema SCHEMA]
describe_table.py - Table Column Details
python .claude/skills/database-snowflake/scripts/describe_table.py --table TABLE_NAME [--database DB] [--schema SCHEMA]
execute_query.py - Run SQL Queries
python .claude/skills/database-snowflake/scripts/execute_query.py --query "SELECT * FROM fact_incident ORDER BY started_at DESC LIMIT 10" [--limit 100]
Investigation Workflow
Incident Data Analysis
1. get_schema.py (understand available tables)
2. execute_query.py --query "SELECT * FROM fact_incident WHERE sev = 'SEV-1' ORDER BY started_at DESC LIMIT 10"
3. execute_query.py --query "SELECT c.customer_name, ic.estimated_arr_at_risk_usd FROM fact_incident_customer_impact ic JOIN dim_customer c ON ic.customer_id = c.customer_id WHERE ic.incident_id = '<id>'"
