Closes DEV-1758.

The bug

duckdb_engine's Inspector.get_table_names(schema=None) returns objects from every schema as bare names. Postgres, MySQL, SQL Server, Snowflake, BigQuery, ClickHouse and SQLite all restrict it to the connection's default schema, so DuckDB is the only exposed Tier-1 dialect. _build_one_model then wrote

sql_table = f"{schema}.{obj.name}" if schema else obj.name   # schema is None

so a non-default-schema object got an unqualified sql_table, the generator emitted FROM reports, and the query failed with table-not-found. Models in the default schema resolved through the search path, which is what made the breakage look partial rather than systemic — the reporter had 3 of 29 models working.

The same schema-blindness hit introspect_utils._get_columns_fallback: with schema is None it issued an information_schema.columns query with no schema filter, so main.reports(a) and s2.reports(b, c) produced one model with columns [a, b, c]. On DuckDB that is not a rare fallback — Inspector.get_columns always raises (pg_catalog.pg_collation does not exist) — so it is the primary column path.

Third defect: cli._run_datasources_create built its DatasourceConfig from name / type / connection_string / description only, using args.schema for the one-shot ingest and then discarding it, while schema_drift._collect_sql_table_diffs reads datasource.schema_name back. So datasources create --schema X --ingest followed by a bare slayer ingest scanned a different schema than validate-models inspected. (MCP's create_datasource already persisted it; the CLI was the odd one out.)

Not literally a regression from #283

Worth stating plainly since the issue title says otherwise: the sql_table assignment is byte-identical before and after #283, and --schema has always qualified correctly. What #283 changed is visibility — views are now ingested by default, and dbt materialises staging models as views, so a dlt+dbt DuckDB file that previously produced a handful of models now produces dozens, most of them in a non-default schema and therefore unqueryable. The issue's v7: sql_table: main.stg_reactions evidence comes from the dbt-import path (slayer/dbt/converter.py passes schema=rm.schema_name), not from bare slayer ingest. The bug is real and fixed as reported; only the framing is off.

Repro, before and after

$ slayer datasources create duckdb:///openfda.duckdb --name openfda_dlt_rest --ingest
$ slayer query '{"source_model":"reports","measures":[{"formula":"*:count","name":"cnt"}]}'

Before: (_duckdb.CatalogException) Table with name reports does not exist! Did you mean "openfda_rest.reports"? [SQL: SELECT COUNT(*) ... FROM reports AS reports]

After:

$ slayer ingest --datasource openfda_dlt_rest
Note: ingested schema 'main' only. Other schemas in this datasource: openfda_rest.
Re-run with --schema openfda_rest, or --all-schemas, to ingest them.        (exit 0)

$ slayer ingest --datasource openfda_dlt_rest --all-schemas
Created: reports (2 columns)          ->  sql_table: openfda_rest.reports
                                          sql_table: in_default

$ slayer query '{"source_model":"reports","measures":[{"formula":"*:count","name":"cnt"}]}'
reports.cnt
2

$ slayer validate-models --datasource openfda_dlt_rest
No drift detected.

What changed

Schema scope. One ingest pass covers one schema unless told otherwise: explicit --schema a,b / --all-schemas (schemas / all_schemas on the Python, REST and MCP surfaces), else datasource.schema_name, else the connection default. Multi-schema is opt-in because it changes what sql_table holds. schema_name is a fallback, never a conflict with an explicit flag; the genuine conflicts (schema+schemas, all_schemas+either) are rejected by one shared helper called from every entry point, so the CLI's add_mutually_exclusive_group is not the only thing holding the line. When exactly one schema is scanned and others exist, the run says which — a hint, not a failure, so the exit code is unchanged.

Two different strings. This is the part that is easy to get backwards, and I got it backwards first — the plan review's initial resolution said normalise tokens to bare, and direct measurement showed the exact inverse. With att_other.duckdb attached as aaa to att_main.duckdb, where shared exists in both:

accessor bare main qualified att_main.main
get_table_names ['in_default','shared','only_in_other','shared'] sweeps the attached catalog ['in_default','shared']
has_table('only_in_other') True False
_get_columns_fallback('shared') ['m','o'] union [] (fixed below)

get_schema_names() on DuckDB returns catalog-qualified tokens always, with or without an ATTACH. So the discovery token is carried exactly as enumerated, end to end, and is_default compares tokens in full — a last-segment comparison is precisely what made att_main.main and other.main both read as the default. The emitted qualifier is a different string: the bare last segment, since the connection's current catalog is already the right one and re-stating it would only break if the datasource were repointed.

test_column_fallback_never_unions_across_catalogs pins the ['m','o'] hazard directly, so the withdrawn rule cannot come back silently.

Both INFORMATION_SCHEMA fallbacks filter on table_catalog. table_schema alone holds the bare name, so a qualified token matched nothing. For the column fallback that meant a model persisted with zero columns and no error; there is deliberately no bare-token retry, since retrying bare is exactly what reintroduces the union. For the PK fallback — which on DuckDB is the path that actually runs, because its Inspector reports an empty constrained_columns even for a declared PRIMARY KEY — it meant every primary key silently dropped, and fan-out safety leans on Column.primary_key. Non-DuckDB dialects carry no catalog segment, so the predicate is never added and their emitted SQL is byte-identical to today's (TestFallbackSqlShape pins that).

With no schema at all the fallback can no longer be narrowed, so instead of unioning every match it groups rows by catalog+schema: one group is used, the default breaks a tie, anything still ambiguous raises. Lowest-sorted-wins was rejected deliberately — it swaps union corruption for wrong-table corruption, which is harder to notice. Per-object isolation turns the raise into a reported skip, so one ambiguous object never aborts the run.

Which objects get qualified. Only non-default schemas, so widening the scan never rewrites models already on disk and one datasource legitimately mixes both forms. A single explicitly-named schema is written verbatim, preserving today's --schema public -> public.orders. A multi-schema list is deliberately not verbatim: listing the default alongside another schema would re-qualify every existing model. --all-schemas means the current catalog only; attached catalogs are dropped loudly, with the exact --schema <catalog>.<schema> invocation that ingests them.

Merging. Re-ingest heals a missing qualifier but never rewrites an existing one. The repair has to participate in the short-circuit and the save gate (same reason source_kind does — a repair usually changes no columns, so a merge that only edits the model_copy(update=...) dict computes the fix and throws it away). Two schemas' same-named tables are never fused into one model: a schema mismatch skips, and — the case a schema comparison alone cannot see, because default-schema models are persisted unqualified — a bare persisted sql_table naming a real default-schema object also skips, rather than being repointed by the heal.

Collisions resolve in one phase over final model names with a 4-key total order (unsanitized beats sanitized, then default schema, then schema name, then object name) rather than successive passes, so the mixed case (s1.a__b sanitizing onto a real s2.a_b) is defined and the outcome never depends on inspector listing order. Losers skip, never suffix.

validate-models derives its schema set from the models being validated — no new flag — and keys the live map on the full <schema_token>.<object> identity plus shorter aliases. A contested alias resolves to the DEFAULT schema's entry, mirroring what the database itself does (FROM orders and FROM main.orders both land in the current catalog); it is dropped only when the default cannot break the tie. This is a data-loss path, not a false-positive nuisance: an unresolvable model becomes a WholeModelDelete, which validate-models --force-clean acts on.

Schema names that arrive from outside — a --schema argument, a persisted schema_name, the bare qualifier read back off a persisted sql_table — are upgraded to the enumerated catalog-qualified token before they reach an Inspector, since a bare token is precisely what sweeps ATTACHed catalogs. What the user typed is kept separately (ResolvedSchema.requested_as) and is what gets emitted, so resolving for discovery can never change the SQL persisted.

One dotted-name splitter (split_sql_table, everything before the final dot) replaces three parsers that disagreed about three-part names, so hand-written Snowflake db.schema.table and BigQuery project.dataset.table stop losing their catalog. That bug exists today, independent of this feature.

No new model field and no migration — the schema lives in sql_table, which is where the generator already reads it. SlayerModel stays at version 8.

Review round 1 (Codex)

Six findings on the first commit, four of them defects I introduced, all reproduced against DuckDB before fixing — see 558c06dc.

  • Bare schema names still swept attached catalogs. The token discipline covered the schemas we enumerate but not the ones handed to us. Measured: --schema main with a second catalog attached ingested that catalog's only_in_other and wrote it as main.only_in_other, which does not exist in the current catalog. Fixed by resolve_schema_token + requested_as, described above.
  • Dropping every contested alias was itself a data-loss bug. It was meant to avoid an arbitrary winner, but default-schema models are persisted unqualified by design, so the moment another schema gained a same-named table, a legacy sql_table: orders stopped resolving → WholeModelDelete → deleted by --force-clean. Now resolved the way the database resolves it.
  • The cross-schema guard failed open. A failed default-schema listing became an empty list, which reads as "no such object" and waved the qualifier repair through, repointing a model at another schema's table. Unknown is now distinct from empty and refuses the merge.
  • The PK fallback joined across catalogs. DuckDB names a PK constraint after its column, so a same-shaped table in an attached catalog gets the identical name; joining on constraint name + schema alone returned ['id', 'id']. The join now carries the catalog.

One finding rejected: emitting a 3-part sql_table for an explicitly-named catalog-qualified schema is by design (explicit means verbatim), and verified queryable on DuckDB.

SonarQube: # noqa: CODE — prose is malformed suppression syntax (python:S7632), so the reasons moved to their own line; extracting _index_live_entries also settled the cognitive-complexity finding on _live_schema_for_datasource; one composite test assertion split.

Tests

New tests/test_ingestion_schema_qualification.py: 135 tests over real temp .duckdb files (unit-scoped, the pattern test_cube_js_e2e_duckdb.py already uses — not integration-marked). Written before the implementation; the suite failed to import on IngestSchemaScope until the feature existed.

Full non-integration suite: 7520 passed, 5 skipped, 4 xfailed (7385 before this branch). Ruff clean. DuckDB integration suites re-run green.

Five changes to existing tests, all because the behaviour they pinned genuinely changed:

  • test_ingestion.py::test_without_schema asserted "table_schema" not in sql_str and 2-tuple rows. The schema-blind query now selects catalog and schema so it can group instead of union. Updated to assert what actually matters — still parameterized, and no :schema bound.
  • test_column_fallback_never_unions_across_catalogs asserted ["m","o"]; ORDER BY ordinal_position says nothing about which of two catalogs sorts first, and DuckDB returned ["o","m"]. Compared sorted.
  • Three more after review round 1: the discovery token is now qualified where those tests expected bare (test_requested_schemas_are_marked_explicit, test_multi_returns_objects_tagged_with_their_schema), and a contested alias now resolves instead of missing (test_ambiguous_short_keys_are_dropped_not_overwritten, renamed).

tests/test_ingestion_name_sanitize.py passes unchanged, including its s.table_name == "a__b" bare-label assertion — the schema-qualified skip label is used only when the object set actually spans more than one schema.

The PK regression above was caught by tests/integration/test_ingestion_jaffle_shop.py, not by the unit suite, because nothing in it asserted a primary key on DuckDB. TestPrimaryKeysAreSchemaAware closes that; both of its tests fail when the fix is reverted.

Docs

docs/reference/cli.md (new "Which schemas get ingested" section, both flag tables), docs/concepts/ingestion.md (new "Schema scope" section with the four-surface table), docs/concepts/models.md (when sql_table must be qualified), docs/configuration/datasources.md (schema_name and ingestion), .claude/skills/slayer-models.md, .claude/skills/slayer-overview.md, and a dated DECISIONS.md entry. No new pages, so zensical.toml nav is unchanged.

Known limitations, documented not fixed

  • --all-schemas covers the current catalog only. Schemas in an ATTACHed DuckDB catalog are reported as skipped with the explicit invocation that ingests them, rather than guessed at.
  • Under multi-schema ingest the YAML mixes qualified and unqualified sql_table values within one datasource. That is the deliberate consequence of not rewriting default-schema models.
  • A schema or table whose literal name contains a . stays unrepresentable. Pre-existing.

duckdb_engine's get_table_names(schema=None) returns objects from every
schema as bare names -- every other Tier-1 dialect restricts it to the
connection's default -- so _build_one_model wrote an unqualified sql_table
for a non-default-schema object and the generator emitted `FROM reports`,
which fails table-not-found. The same schema-blindness made
_get_columns_fallback union two same-named tables' columns together.

Ingest now resolves an explicit schema scope: --schema a,b / --all-schemas
(schemas / all_schemas on the Python, REST and MCP surfaces), else
datasource.schema_name, else the connection default. Multi-schema is opt-in
because it changes what sql_table holds; when one schema is scanned and
others exist, the run prints which and exits 0.

Two different strings, easy to conflate:

* the discovery token is carried exactly as get_schema_names() yields it
  (catalog-qualified on DuckDB), because the qualified form is the safe one
  -- with a catalog ATTACHed, a bare `main` makes get_table_names and
  has_table reach into it and makes the column fallback return the
  cross-catalog union. is_default therefore compares tokens in full.
* the emitted qualifier is the bare last segment; the connection's current
  catalog is already correct.

Both INFORMATION_SCHEMA fallbacks now filter on table_catalog as well as
table_schema. table_schema alone holds the bare name, so a qualified token
matched nothing: silently column-less models from the column fallback, and
-- on DuckDB, where the Inspector reports no PK even for a declared PRIMARY
KEY, so the fallback is the path that runs -- every primary key dropped.

Only non-default schemas are qualified, so widening the scan never rewrites
models already on disk; a single explicitly-named schema is written verbatim,
preserving --schema public -> public.orders. Re-ingest heals a MISSING
qualifier (participating in the short-circuit and the save gate, like
source_kind) but never rewrites one, and two schemas' same-named tables are
never fused into one model -- including the case a schema comparison alone
cannot see, where the persisted model is unqualified because it IS the
default schema's table.

Collisions resolve in one phase over final model names with a 4-key total
order, so the mixed sanitize/cross-schema case is defined and the outcome
never depends on inspector listing order.

validate-models derives its schema set from the models being validated and
keys the live map on the full <schema_token>.<object> identity, with shorter
aliases inserted only when unique -- an ambiguous alias is dropped so a
lookup misses rather than resolving to another catalog's same-named table.
That is a data-loss path: an unresolvable model is a WholeModelDelete that
--force-clean acts on. One dotted-name splitter replaces three disagreeing
parsers, so hand-written Snowflake db.schema.table and BigQuery
project.dataset.table stop losing their catalog.

No new model field and no migration -- the schema lives in sql_table, which
is where the generator already reads it.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to ae993

This PR changes schema discovery and model repair across ingestion, validation, and MCP. At the current head, models can still be rebound to the wrong catalog, metadata failures can become deletions applied by force-clean, and multi-schema requests can block MCP handling. These are high-impact merge-readiness risks, so the PR should not merge until they are fixed or explicitly accepted.

Six findings from the Codex review of the PR diff, four of them defects I
introduced, all reproduced against DuckDB before fixing.

**Bare schema names still swept ATTACHed catalogs.** The token discipline was
applied to the schemas we ENUMERATE but not to the ones handed to us: an
explicit `--schema main`, a persisted `schema_name`, and the bare qualifier
`validate-models` reads back off `sql_table` all went to the Inspector
verbatim. Measured, `--schema main` on a database with a second catalog
attached ingested that catalog's `only_in_other` and wrote it as
`main.only_in_other`, which does not exist in the current catalog -- the exact
bug class this branch exists to remove. `resolve_schema_token` upgrades such a
name to the enumerated catalog-qualified token, preferring the current catalog
when several expose the same schema name, and `ResolvedSchema` now carries
`requested_as` so the emitted `sql_table` stays what the user typed. Resolving
for discovery must never change the SQL we persist.

**Dropping every contested alias was itself a data-loss bug.** The live map
dropped a short alias claimed by more than one object, meaning to avoid an
arbitrary winner. But default-schema models are persisted UNQUALIFIED by
design, so as soon as another schema gained a same-named table, a legacy
`sql_table: orders` stopped resolving -- and an unresolvable model is a
`WholeModelDelete` that `validate-models --force-clean` deletes. A contested
alias now resolves to the DEFAULT schema's entry, which is what the database
itself does: `FROM orders` and `FROM main.orders` both land in the current
catalog. It is dropped only when the default cannot break the tie.

**The cross-schema guard failed open.** `_default_schema_object_names`
converted a failed listing into an empty list, which reads as "no such
default-schema object" and waved the qualifier repair through -- repointing a
model at another schema's table. Unknown is now `None` and distinct from
empty, and refuses the merge. Skipping a legal repair costs a re-run.

**The PK fallback joined across catalogs.** DuckDB names a PK constraint after
its column, so a same-shaped table in an ATTACHed catalog gets the identical
auto-generated name; joining `key_column_usage` on constraint name and schema
alone matched both and returned `['id', 'id']`. The join now carries the
catalog.

One finding rejected: emitting a 3-part `sql_table` for an explicitly-named
catalog-qualified schema is by design, and verified queryable on DuckDB.

Also from SonarQube: `# noqa: CODE — prose` is malformed suppression syntax
(python:S7632), so the reasons move to their own line; the alias indexing is
extracted into `_index_live_entries`, which also settles the cognitive
complexity finding on `_live_schema_for_datasource`; and one composite test
assertion is split.

Three existing tests updated -- they pinned the pre-fix behaviour: the
discovery token is now qualified where it used to be bare, and the contested
alias resolves rather than missing.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two findings from review round 2, both reproduced first.

**Two requests naming the same schema cancelled each other out.**
`validate-models` derives its schema set from persisted `sql_table` values, so
a datasource holding both `orders` (bare ingest) and `main.customers`
(`--schema main`) asks for `None` AND `main` -- which now resolve to the same
discovery token. Scanned twice, every object appeared as two rival claimants
for its own alias, the default-schema tie-break found no unique winner, and
the aliases were dropped from objects that have no rival at all. Measured:
BOTH models became WholeModelDeletes, i.e. the fix for the previous round's
data-loss bug had opened a wider one. Resolved tokens are now deduplicated
before scanning, and `_index_live_entries` collapses duplicate
`(schema_token, object)` pairs so the helper is correct whatever it is fed.

**The catalog upgrade assumed every dot is a catalog separator.** Postgres
allows `CREATE SCHEMA "foo.bar"` and lists schema names bare, so a request for
a nonexistent `bar` would have silently resolved to `foo.bar` and ingested a
schema the user never asked for. The upgrade is now gated on the dialect
actually enumerating catalog-qualified tokens, decided from its own default
schema token rather than from "does any name contain a dot".

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
… fallback

Two findings from review round 3.

**The gate could misclassify DuckDB as bare.** It asked
`qualified_default_schema()`, which falls back to the BARE default when the
current catalog cannot be determined -- and with attached catalogs supplying
several `*.main` tokens, that fallback fires. The gate then reported "this
dialect lists bare names", refused the upgrade, and re-armed the cross-catalog
sweep the upgrade exists to prevent. It now asks where the dialect's own
default schema turns up in its own enumeration: listed bare means bare tokens;
absent but present as some `<catalog>.<default>` means the dialect qualifies.
That is independent of catalog detection, and still keeps Postgres'
`CREATE SCHEMA "foo.bar"` from being read as a catalog.

**`None` was not normalised before the scan dedupe.** `None` and an explicit
`main` resolved to different values (`None` stays `None`) even though
`list_ingestable_objects` resolves both to the same token internally, so the
schema was introspected twice and correctness rested entirely on the
entry-level dedupe behind it. `None` now normalises to the default token up
front.

…758) with hidden internals (DEV-1759)

Wove internal-table classification into the per-schema scan (_scan_one_schema),
moved a mis-merged hidden_internals property back into IngestionScanReport, made
the collision/conflict skip reasons surface-neutral (no --exclude, added by each
renderer's header), and guarded per-schema listing in _live_schema_for_datasource
so a stale/dotted sql_table schema can't abort drift.

Compare the tie-break token in one shape.

by_token keys are catalog-qualified when the row carries a catalog (f"{catalog}.{schema_name}"). default_schema is the value produced by qualified_default_schema, which returns a bare name on bare-enumerating dialects. A bare default_schema such as public therefore never matches the key mydb.public, and the function raises on an ambiguity the default schema could have resolved.

_safe_get_columns hides this today, because it resolves schema=None to the default token before calling. The mismatch is still reachable for any direct caller that passes schema=None with a bare default_schema.

Compare the last segment so both shapes resolve.

_get_columns_fallback takes four parameters and _columns_in_schema takes three. Both are called positionally here and at line 307. The positional schema argument is easy to confuse with default_schema, which now sits next to it.

Do not silently ignore schema scope for demo.

These options also apply to slayer datasources create demo. That path calls _run_datasources_create_demo, which invokes ingest_datasource without schemas or all_schemas. For example, --schema missing still ingests the default schema.

Forward the parsed scope in _run_datasources_create_demo, or reject these options when connection_string is demo.

A bare fresh.sql_table bypasses the cross-schema guard.

The guard returns None whenever fresh_schema is falsy. The reverse pairing is therefore unprotected: the persisted model is bound to openfda_rest.reports, and a later default-schema scan produces a fresh model whose sql_table is the bare reports.

That pairing reaches _additive_merge_existing. _qualifier_repair returns None (the persisted value already carries a qualifier), so sql_table is kept, but the default-schema table's new columns are appended to the model that points at openfda_rest.reports. The model then declares columns its live table does not have.

Treat "persisted is qualified and fresh is unqualified" as a conflict as well.

Do not emit WholeModelDelete for failed introspection.

When _introspect_one_table raises, track the object identity and exclude its model from drift computation. Otherwise _resolve_live_table returns None, and validate-models --force-clean applies a destructive WholeModelDelete for metadata that was not successfully read. Add a regression test for this path.

Run auto-ingestion outside the MCP event loop.

Line 1509 calls synchronous SQLAlchemy introspection from an async tool. all_schemas=True can make this scan long enough to block unrelated MCP requests. Run _ingest with await asyncio.to_thread(...), as the async idempotent ingestion path does.

-                datasource=ds,

Preserve the selected scope when rendering an empty result.

A multi-schema or all-schema call leaves schema_name empty. _render_ingest_result then probes the datasource default schema, not the selected scope. An empty selected schema can therefore report “already in sync,” and a non-default schema with existing objects can report “No tables found.”

Use result.objects, which already represents the scoped scan, or pass schemas and all_schemas into the renderer for its fallback probe.

Use the datasource default schema for an unqualified sql_table.

split_sql_table(sql_table)[0] returns None for an unqualified name, so _live_schema_for_datasource scans only the connection's default schema. If datasource.schema_name names a different schema, the live map does not contain the model's table, _resolve_live_table returns None, and refinement returns False with no narrowing applied.

The module already has _parse_sql_table_with_default_schema for exactly this fallback, and _collect_sql_table_diffs in slayer/engine/schema_drift.py (lines 2174-2178) adds datasource.schema_name or None to its schema set. Align this call with both.

🐛 Proposed fix
+    schema_token, _ = _parse_sql_table_with_default_schema(sql_table, datasource)
     live = _live_schema_for_datasource(
-        datasource=datasource, schemas=[split_sql_table(sql_table)[0]],

…chema conflict

A bare ingest persists default-schema models unqualified; a later explicit
--schema <default> qualifies them (public.orders), which _cross_schema_conflict
wrongly flagged as a conflict and skipped. Thread the default schema name through
so a fresh object qualified with the default is treated as the qualifier repair
it is. Also label the two new cli.md fenced blocks (markdownlint MD040).

1063-1077: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Deduplicate requested schemas before scanning.

If schemas contains the same schema twice, this code creates duplicate ResolvedSchema entries. Discovery deduplicates objects, but ingest_datasource_report later scans each entry and can return duplicate models and internal-table records. Deduplicate resolved schemas by identity while preserving request order, or scan unique schemas only. Add a regression test for schemas=["s2", "s2"].

Use keyword arguments for multi-parameter calls.

Line [1030] passes arguments positionally to resolve_schema_token. Line [1319] does the same for _compute_transitive_closure. Line [1978] passes table_name positionally to StorageBackend.get_model. Convert these calls to keyword arguments.
