Quick brief

Use SQLMesh when an agent needs to review analytics-model changes before they hit the warehouse. The agent can diff models, preview impacted tables and backfills, and produce a safer rollout plan before any destructive or expensive run. The boundary is tightly pre-rollout planning and impact review for SQL transformations, not a generic SQL editor, BI tool, or warehouse platform listing.
