PBI Query

Query authoring and execution through run_query.

Query workflow

1. Discover schema first: list_model { "operation": "list", "spec": { "type": "tables" } } — one call per type (tables, columns, measures, relationships; spec.type takes exactly one value) — or { "operation": "search", "spec": { "query": "<name>", "mode": "name" } } for a named object. Never invent table, column, or measure names.
2. Pick the run_query operation:
   • execute — results and validation queries.
   • test_access — role-by-role RLS validation (requires top-level query and spec.roles).
   • analyze and vertipaq belong to performance work — hand off to mcp-engine-dax-performance.
3. Keep the first execute scoped: TOPN of at most 100 rows with an explicit ORDER BY, or a targeted aggregation. Expand only after the shape is confirmed correct.
4. Treat null in results as DAX BLANK semantics, and truncated: true as a row cap, not missing data.

Author safely

• Read dax-query-guide before writing new or corrected query text — quoting, naming, and structure rules live there.
• Add ORDER BY to any multi-row output so results are stable and comparable across runs.

Report results

After query work, report:

1. The exact DAX text run and the run_query operation used.
2. Row count returned and whether results were truncated.
3. The answer to the user's question, stated separately from raw output.
