dbt Cloud MCP server

Checked September 2026.

dbt Cloud's remote server reads a team's project metadata, models, sources, tests, lineage, job runs, and Semantic Layer metrics, and can trigger, retry, or cancel a job run. Tracing a model's lineage or querying a defined metric by dimension needs no CLI; the self-hosted dbt-mcp adds the dbt CLI commands themselves.

dbt Cloud MCP options

Every fact in a row comes from the publisher's own documentation.

Other ways to reach dbt Cloud data

One MCP server per tool still can't answer a cross-channel question.

Each server brings its own sign-in, its own definition of revenue, and data your assistant can't join to the rest.
