MotherDuck introduces a 'Guides' context layer that embeds business logic and data rules directly into the database to stop agents from guessing.

Why it matters: Without a dedicated metadata layer, agents often misinterpret schemas or lack the company-specific intuition needed for accurate data synthesis.
