Comment 1 — Report Layer Overview
Here's the new 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 at a glance.
32 visual types, data binding, themes, and filters. All from the terminal.
No connection needed. It reads and writes PBIR JSON directly, auto-syncs with Desktop, and supports bulk operations.
One command to add a chart. One command to bind data. One command to apply your brand theme.
Comment 2 — 32 Visual Types
𝟯𝟮 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗲𝘀 you can add from one command.
Bar, line, column, area, scatter, combo, donut, waterfall, treemap, funnel. Cards, KPIs, gauges. Tables and matrices. Slicers for every use case. Azure Maps. Even decorative elements like shapes, images, and textboxes.
pbi visual add --type bar --page overview --name my_chart
That's it. Claude picks the right type, you describe what you need.
Comment 3 — Build a Report in 6 Steps
Full report from an empty folder in 𝟲 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀:
- Scaffold the project
- Add pages
- Add visuals
- Bind data
- Apply theme
- Validate
All steps work offline on PBIR files. Desktop auto-syncs when it's open. You can chain these in a single prompt and Claude handles the sequence.
Comment 4 — Desktop Auto-Sync
The part that makes this actually usable: 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗸𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼-𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗰.
CLI writes PBIR files, takes a snapshot of your modeling work, then reopens Desktop with everything intact. Both layers preserved.
No more closing Desktop manually. No risk of losing unsaved model changes. It just works.
Comment 5 — Just Ask Claude
This is what it actually looks like in practice.
"Add a bar chart showing revenue by region to the overview page, and apply our corporate brand theme."
Claude runs the commands: adds the visual, binds the data, applies the theme, syncs Desktop. Then you say "filter it to top 10 regions" and it adds a TopN filter.
No drag-and-drop. No manual binding. Just describe what you want on the page.
Comment 6 — Two Layers, One CLI
The full picture: 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 + 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 side by side.
Semantic Model Layer uses live .NET interop for measures, tables, relationships, DAX. Report Layer uses PBIR file operations for visuals, pages, themes, filters.
7 Claude skills for modeling. 5 for reporting. 27 command groups. 125+ subcommands total.
Comment 7 — Architecture
How the dual-layer architecture works under the hood.
Modeling side: TMDL export/import, DAX engine, schema control. All through direct .NET TOM interop.
Reporting side: Visual builder, data binding, theme engine. All through PBIR JSON file operations.
One CLI bridges both. Claude picks the right layer automatically based on your request.
Comment 8 — Command Showcase
Side-by-side command showcase for both layers.
𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴: model export, dax run, add-measure, table list, relationship list, model import.
𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: add-visual, bind-data, add-page, list-visuals, update-theme, export.
30+ commands across both layers. AI-native from the start.
