Share Data with MotherDuck
Use this skill when you need to distribute a MotherDuck database without copying data. Shares are read-only, zero-copy database clones and should be treated as explicit provisioning operations.
Source Of Truth
- Prefer the current MotherDuck sharing docs and SQL reference first.
- If the MotherDuck MCP
ask_docs_questionfeature is available, use it before falling back to public docs. - Keep the sharing model aligned with the documented behavior:
- zero-copy and metadata-only
- database-granularity sharing
- read-only recipients
- owner-controlled update mode
Prerequisites
- MotherDuck connection established via
connect - Source database identified via
explore - Share SQL validated via
