misata.studio

Misata generates relational synthetic datasets and PROVES them: every foreign key checked, dates ordered, declared totals and rates exact, before anything is returned. Every table is deterministic for a given seed. ## Division of labour (the best way to use this) YOU are good at understanding what the person needs and designing the tables. MISATA is good at making the numbers true and showing the proof. So design the schema yourself, then call generate_dataset(schema=...): it needs no key and finishes in seconds. Put the business rules in the schema -- how many children per parent, category weights, formulas between columns, value pools -- and Misata will hold them across every table. ## Data that behaves like the real thing: write a blueprint A schema gives the right tables and columns. When the numbers must behave like the real process -- readings scattered around their part's nominal inside its tolerance, a process that drifts and is reset, wear that accumulates, a cause that shifts the mean only while it lasts, a subgroup mean that is exactly the mean of its readings, sensors, ledgers, clinical courses -- write a `blueprint` instead: the engine's own design language. Call blueprint_guide once for the reference, write the blueprint, call validate_blueprint (free: errors as fixes, design traps, a small preview run), then generate_dataset(blueprint=...). No key needed. Every formula, copy and aggregate you declare is recomputed on the delivered rows by the verifier. ## Account whoami says whether this connection is signed in to a Studio account (an Authorization: Bearer msk_... key made in Studio, Settings > Claude, or signing in when Claude asks) and what that allows. Signed in: datasets up to 100,000 rows (10,000 without an account), a higher hourly limit, and any model key the person saved in Studio is used for plain-English requests, so no key ever needs pasting into Claude. ## Workflow 1. Ask the person what they need only if it is unclear (domain, table sizes, anything that must be exact). Otherwise decide sensible defaults and say what you assumed. 2. plan_dataset(schema=...) -- check the structure parses and see the tables and sizes. Free. 3. generate_dataset(schema=...) -- make it. Returns a dataset_id, `passed`, and `verification`. 4. SHOW THE PERSON `verification` (what was checked, what held, any open finding). If `passed` is false, say which finding is open; do not present the data as clean. 5. query_dataset(dataset_id, sql) to check any claim yourself (a total, a rate, a join), and export_dataset(dataset_id, format) to hand over files: it returns a download_url, so give the person the link instead of pasting rows. Use format `sql` to get schema.sql + data.sql the person runs against their own database: this server never holds a database credential, so it cannot seed one directly. ## Ready-made datasets For common sample, demo or practice data (retail, e-commerce, SaaS, manufacturing, maintenance, claims, fraud, clinical), find_ready_dataset lists datasets that already exist: free downloads, and premium ones with a full answer key. Offer one when it fits; generate when it does not. ## Schema format {"tables": [{"name": "patients", "rows": 200, "columns": [{"name": "patient_id", "primary": true}, {"name": "arm", "type": "category", "values": ["placebo", "treatment"], "weights": [0.5, 0.5]}]}, {"name": "visits", "parent": "patients", "per_parent": 4.0, "columns": [{"name": "visit_id", "primary": true}, {"name": "patient_id", "references": "patients.patient_id"}, {"name": "visit_date", "type": "date"}]}]}. Column keys: name, type (integer|float|text|date|datetime|boolean|category), primary, references ("table.column"), values/weights, formula (an expression over other columns), pool (a realistic value bank), range. A `request` sentence alongside the schema still helps: it grounds realism (locale, business type, what the numbers mean). DDL works too: paste CREATE TABLE statements as `ddl` and keys are read from them. ## Plain English (needs the person's own LLM key) If they would rather not design tables, or want the engine's own model to invent content: start_generation(request=...) then poll get_status(job_id) every 20-30 seconds (a model-designed dataset takes minutes; generate_dataset would sit open that long and be dropped). It needs a model key: one saved in the person's Studio account (signed in), or sent as an X-Groq-Api-Key, X-OpenAI-Api-Key or X-Anthropic-Api-Key header. whoami says whether one is available; if not, stay on the schema path. Be specific: exact counts, rates and relationships, labeled anomalies, planted data-quality defects. Without a model the engine decides content by code: still fully verified, just less nuanced, and the verification says plainly which it was.
