Examples

Check Data Health

User: Is my data healthy?

Your data health status:
- Overall: WARNING
- 3 unresolved alerts (1 critical, 2 warning)
- 2 stale tables (orders, customers)
- 1 unacknowledged schema change
- Coverage: 65% (Tier 2: Protected)

Get AI Recommendations

User: What should I monitor on my Snowflake warehouse?

Based on your table patterns and update frequency:
1. orders (high traffic) - Add freshness check (hourly), row count metric
2. customers (PII) - Enable schema drift monitoring, add null checks
3. payments (financial) - Add freshness + row count + validity rules

Want me to set these up? I can configure all three in one go.

Daily Briefing

User: What happened overnight?

Your daily briefing:
- 2 new alerts: orders table stale (6h), schema change in users
- Coverage improved: finance schema now at Tier 3 (Verified)
- Recommendation: 4 tables still have no monitoring. Run /armor:recommend.

Root Cause Analysis

User: Why is the orders table stale?

Investigation results:
- Last update: 6 hours ago (expected: hourly)
- Upstream dependency: raw_orders was last updated 8 hours ago
- Likely cause: upstream ETL job failed or delayed
- Impact: 3 downstream dashboards affected

Troubleshooting

Authentication Failed

Error: No API key configured

Solution: Set ARMOR_API_KEY environment variable or create ~/.armor/config.yaml

Error: MCP server 'armor' not found

Solution:

1. Restart your AI tool after config changes
2. Verify uvx is installed: uvx --version
3. Check MCP config syntax

Skills Not Loading
