Sqemo MCP turns ER naming rules into deterministic outputs for schema agents

An MCP server for ER diagrams makes naming rules deterministic for agents
The author built an MCP server for the Sqemo ERD tool so agents can edit schemas without inventing inconsistent physical names like userid vs userId.
- The key idea is to treat physical names as computed, not typed.
- Teams register a glossary and naming rules once, then agents work in logical terms and call generatephysicalname to get deterministic output such as custno.
- Tools like checknaming and linterd catch drift, and the same checks can run in CI through a CLI.
- It ships with 34 tools, supports offline local .erd.json files, and can import/export SQL and DBML.
- The author is looking for feedback from people using agents on real schema work.
