SQL is the best exploratory interface for LLMs. But, most of Observability data like Metrics, Logs, Traces we have today are hidden in layers of semantics, custom syntax that’s hard for an agent to translate from explore or debug intent to the actual query language.

Large scale data like metrics, logs, traces are optimised for storage and access patterns and OLAP/SQL systems may not be the most optimal way to store or retrieve it. This is one of the reasons I’ve been working on a Text2SQL / Intent2SQL engine for Observability data to let an agent explore schema, semantics, syntax of any metrics, logs data. It is open sourced as Codd Text2SQL engine - https://github.com/sathish316/codd_query_engine/

It is far from done and currently works for Prometheus,Loki,Splunk for few scenarios and is open to OSS contributions. You can find it in action used by Claude Code to debug using Metrics and Logs queries:
