It uses SQLGlot to parse SQL and extract column dependencies, then combines that with dbt's manifest and catalog metadata to build a complete lineage graph. The tool generates a static HTML file that requires no external services, cloud dependencies, or complex setup.\n\nYou run it after your normal dbt compile and dbt docs generate steps, point it at your target directory, and get back a browsable visualization of how data flows column-by-column through your models. It's designed for data teams who need transparency into their transformation logic without vendor lock-in or enterprise tooling overhead. The package supports a wide range of dbt adapters (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, duckDB, Postgres, Databricks, Athena, Trino, SQL Server, ClickHouse, Oracle, StarRocks) and has been tested against dbt-core 1.8.x through 1.10.x.","worth_installing":"Yes. Low install friction, no security vulnerabilities, permissive MIT license, and active maintenance make this a straightforward choice for dbt users needing column-level lineage visibility. The self-hosted, static-HTML approach eliminates vendor lock-in concerns. Install if your team uses dbt and wants transparent, flexible lineage tracking."},"id":"dbt-colibri","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/dbt-colibri","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/dbt-colibri.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/dbt-colibri/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-06-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"dbt-colibri","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A column lineage parser and dashboarding tool"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":90255,"position":13606,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.6"}
