SnapQL is an open-source desktop app (built with Electron) that lets you query your Postgres database using natural language. It’s schema-aware, so you don’t need to copy-paste your schema or write complex SQL by hand.

Everything runs locally — your OpenAI API key, your data, and your queries — so it's secure and private. Just connect your DB, describe what you want, and SnapQL writes and runs the SQL for you.

Can you please add support to add descriptions of each column and enumerated types?

For example, if a column contains 0 or 1 encoding the absence of presence of something, LLMs need to know what 0 and 1 stand for. Same goes of column names because they can be cryptic in production databases.
