Summary
AI summaryUpdates Under the Hood, Bug Fix, and v1.21.2 - 2026-07-08 across a mixed release.
Full changelog
v1.21.2 - 2026-07-08
Under the Hood
- Model-by-name lookups in get_model_details now resolve via a single Discovery API identifier query instead of enumerating packages and guessing unique_ids. Note: this fast path matches by DB alias, which get_model_details has done since #453 (not something this change introduces) and which get_model_health/get_model_children/get_model_parents have done since #289 -- a model whose alias was explicitly overridden away from its dbt name may not be found by name.
- get_model_performance's name resolution now skips fetching full model details (catalog, compiled code, etc.) and resolves the unique_id directly.
- Update docs gen script to annotate deprecated tools to README
Bug Fix
- Reduce the semantic layer GraphQL request timeout from 60s to 30s so unresponsive requests fail faster instead of holding the connection open.
