It runs on desktop and Docker, offers a CLI, a built-in AI assistant, and an MCP server, and its combination of light footprint and broad compatibility is what developers are discussing.

One write-up describes building an agentic data factory using Parquet, DuckDB and the Model Context Protocol, arguing that data engineering foundations matter more than credentials or access alone.
