planning-refactor-mart

You can plan a dbt mart refactor by identifying a bounded mart-domain unit from selected targets and generating a markdown plan of refactor candidates. The process proposes staging, intermediate, and mart models while ensuring no models are mutated.

A bounded mart-domain unit in dbt data modeling is a selected set of targets that form a cohesive logical group. Identifying this unit allows you to propose staging, intermediate, and mart refactor candidates with clear dependencies and execution order.

Yes, planning mart refactors requires access to the active project root, catalog, manifest, and dbt context. These components validate the proposed staging, intermediate, and mart candidates against the plan-file-contract and dbt project standards.

Generate a markdown refactor plan by applying the planning flow to a bounded mart target set. You specify a plan output path, and the flow drafts staging, intermediate, and mart candidates with dependencies, enforcing governance via the plan-file-contract.

The primary limitation is that this dbt mart planning process is planning-only and does not mutate dbt models. It is strictly bounded to analyzing the staging, intermediate, and mart layers you select and outputting a markdown plan of refactor candidates.
