Explore a Cube semantic model

Read-only. Nothing here changes state, so you never need a dev-mode branch — which also means you can run any of it before you know what you're doing.

Preflight

Run this once at the start. Stop and report if either check fails; do not guess at credentials or invent a deployment id.

command -v cube >/dev/null || echo "Cube CLI not installed: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cube-js/cube/master/install-cli.sh | sh"
cube whoami || echo "Not authenticated. Interactive: cube login. Headless: set CUBE_API_URL + CUBE_API_KEY."
