Contextloop Overview

Contextloop MCP server gives Claude Code, Cursor, and other data agents access to team-defined metric meanings, business terminology, and SQL rules. It captures user corrections as reviewable rules and tracks answer accuracy over time. Contextloop also exports these definitions to dbt MetricFlow and Cube YAML, without requiring warehouse access. Reach for it when agents need consistent data guidance rather than direct access to warehouse systems.

Primary Use Cases for Contextloop:
  • Provide agents with approved metric definitions
  • Ground data answers in team business terminology
  • Turn user corrections into reviewable SQL rules
  • Track agent answer accuracy over time
