A Mac app for Postgres and SQLite that lets AI agents inspect permitted data and propose changes for review.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-17 issue.
For
Mac users connecting AI agents to databases
Worth noticing
The page describes a 1,000-row cap and a 10-second limit on every query.

Field notes

The described workflow separates reading from writing: an agent can run permitted SELECT queries, while proposed INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE operations wait for a person to review the affected rows and commit or reject them. The page also gives users table-level access controls, column masking, and a query log that includes refusals, such as a query blocked for potentially scanning 4.1 million rows.
