Explorer
Explorer is Dory's object browser for understanding database structure before you start writing or changing queries.
Current direction
The repository release notes describe Explorer as a unified, driver-aware interface with support for objects such as:
- Databases
- Schemas
- Tables
- Views
- Materialized views
- Functions
- Extensions
When to use it
- You are new to a database and need orientation.
- You want to inspect object names before writing SQL.
- You need to confirm that your connection exposes the expected schema.
Relationship to the rest of Dory
Explorer is upstream of the rest of the workflow. It helps validate structure for Connections, improves SQL authoring in SQL Console, and makes AI prompts more concrete in AI Chat.
