Got it — noted that production runs on PostgreSQL. What would you like to do with that?

Noted — nightly ETL job runs at 02:00 UTC. Let me know what you'd like to do with that.

Also note that our analytics warehouse is BigQuery.

Which store should a new reporting dashboard read from?
risk LOW
proposer posthocnon-trivialmode TOOL
model
BigQuery, your analytics warehouse. Reporting dashboards should read from there rather than the PostgreSQL production database, so you avoid putting analytical query load on the transactional system and instead hit a store that's built for that access pattern. Just keep in mind the data is only as fresh as the last ETL run (02:00 UTC nightly), so if the dashboard needs intraday data you'd want to revisit ETL frequency.

Full harness trace — flagOn · seed 3

The harness runs on every turn. Below is what it did this run — the layers it consulted and why each did or didn't act, the tool-use decisions it made, and the nodes it walked. Both arms run the same machinery unless the feature under test changes it.
