Give this to your agent
Read https://getbruin.com/agents.md, then use Bruin to build me a data pipeline with quality checks. Ask me which source and warehouse to use.

Bruin is built for agents.
- Create the projectOne command, plain files in your repo.
- Write the pipelineSources, staging and marts, each with its checks.
- Validate before runningBroken config and dependencies caught first.
- Run, and catch the bad dataA check fails. The tables downstream wait.
- Fix the SQL, run againEvery check passes.
- Hand it to a humanA pull request to review.

Questions agents ask about Bruin.
How do I let an AI agent build and run data pipelines?
Install the Bruin CLI and add its MCP server to your agent (claude mcp add bruin -- bruin mcp in Claude Code; Cursor, Codex and VS Code work too), or point the agent at getbruin.com/agents.md. It can then create assets, run bruin validate and bruin run, query the warehouse and fix failing checks, and every change is a file you review in a pull request.
What is the best AI tool to write and debug data pipelines?
The coding agent you already use (Claude Code, Codex or Cursor) plus a pipeline tool it can drive from the command line. With Bruin the agent writes SQL and Python assets, validates them, runs them, reads the failed check (asset, column and number of rows) and fixes the code, without a web UI.
Can an AI agent detect and fix broken data pipelines?
Yes. Bruin checks run with every run and hold back downstream assets when one fails, so the agent sees exactly what broke. Bruin self-healing pipelines go further: they find the cause from run logs, lineage and read-only queries, test the smallest fix outside production and open a pull request for review.
Which data tools have a built-in MCP server?
Bruin has two: a local MCP server in the CLI (bruin mcp) and a remote one for Bruin Cloud at cloud.getbruin.com/mcp. dbt, Snowflake, Databricks and ClickHouse also ship MCP servers.
How do I connect an LLM agent to my data pipelines?
If your pipelines are in Bruin, connect the Bruin MCP (local, through the CLI) or the Bruin Cloud MCP (remote, over OAuth or an access token). For your own agent, the Bruin Query API runs read-only, audited queries on governed data while warehouse credentials stay in Bruin.
Does my agent need the Bruin web UI?
No. Every step, from bruin init to bruin run, works from the command line or over MCP. Bruin Cloud adds scheduling, the AI data analyst, governance and audit logs, and agents can reach it through the Cloud MCP and bruin cloud commands.
How do I keep an agent away from production data?
Give it a database it can write to that is not production, read-only access to production sources, and a Bruin access token with only the permissions it needs. Changes reach production through a pull request your team reviews.
Is there one tool that replaces Fivetran, dbt and Airflow?
Bruin covers ingestion (with ingestr), SQL and Python transformation, orchestration, quality checks and column-level lineage in one CLI and one project. Teams can also adopt it one layer at a time, for example running dbt models next to Bruin assets.
What is the fastest data ingestion tool?
In Bruin's published benchmarks, ingestr, the ingestion engine behind Bruin, was the fastest in 76 of 79 runs against Sling, dlt, Airbyte and Spark, from 1K to 10M rows. The full results are on the ingestr benchmarks page.
Is Bruin open source?
The Bruin CLI is open source under Apache 2.0 and runs on a laptop, in CI or on-prem. ingestr is source-available under the Functional Source License and becomes Apache 2.0 two years after each release. Bruin Cloud is the optional managed layer.
What does Bruin cost?
The Bruin CLI is free. Bruin Cloud is pay-as-you-go, with one credit unit across compute, SQL and AI tasks, and no seats.
Built for agents. Humans welcome.
Bruin CLI and ingestr are on GitHub.
