Mac SQL client that explains your database to you

[opal apex]

Hey folks, I built a sql client for mac where your entire db schema is available in LLM context. You can chat with your database or run an “LLM analysis” that uses system info (slow queries, indexes usage, connections, etc.) to give optimization tips. You just ask questions in plain english ("show me active users from last week") and it generates/runs the SQL.

Feedback would mean a lot:

ps: fully local, no third-party sdk/analytics, your machine connects directly to your db. Passwords are safely stored in your mac keychain.

Whats the difference from the llm just doing it while working?

it’s a full database client, not just a chat box with SQL output. You get a proper data grid, schema browser, query history, editing, etc.

like one thing I love there: you can preview referenced rows in one click without jumping tabs

Or do you mean using it together with Cursor? that’s a pretty different use case. It isn’t trying to plug into an agent, it’s a standalone database client where you work directly with your data.

"You just ask questions in plain english ("show me active users from last week") and it generates/runs the SQL."

Thats what i read, and the whole llm powered thing... And im wondering what the difference is from asking say claude code or cursor that?

because it isn't a good idea to let agents connect to any production or staging databases in the first place 😄
