Quick brief

dbt-checkpoint gives an agent a bounded repository guardrail workflow: run dbt-specific pre-commit checks, surface failures, and keep bad project hygiene from sliding into main. Invoke it when the real task is dbt project quality gating, not when you merely need the dbt runtime to execute models. The scope boundary is narrow and publishable: dbt-focused static and pre-commit checks, not a generic pre-commit framework card or a broad dbt product listing.
