Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema

How to install Semantic Link Labs?▼

Run `npx skills add microsoft/semantic-link-labs --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills in this suite globally.

What does Semantic Link Labs do?▼

It is a Python library for Microsoft Fabric notebooks that manages semantic models, reports, lakehouses, and capacities. It adds tools like Best Practice Analyzer, Vertipaq Analyzer, and Direct Lake migration on top of Semantic Link.

How to optimize a slow DAX query?▼

The dax-optimization skill analyzes your query, trace timings, and query plan against a rule catalog to pinpoint issues like CallbackDataID, high cardinality columns, and missing DIVIDE, then suggests concrete fixes.

Can AI convert SQL to DAX measures?▼

Yes. The sql_to_dax skill translates SQL aggregations, window functions, and CASE statements into semantically correct DAX using iterators, CALCULATE, and DIVIDE.

Does it work with Claude Code and other AI agents?▼

Yes. All skills follow the standard SKILL.md format and work in Claude Code, Cursor, and other compatible AI coding agents.
