# Warehouse contracts for Snowflake

Your Snowflake schema is not a contract. Generate one from the governed model.

Import your estate with keys, audit it, then generate coremodels_tables.sql back out: CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE DDL with native types from the vendor mixin, NOT NULL from checks, informational PRIMARY KEY / FOREIGN KEY declarations, and COMMENTs carrying descriptions plus governed allowed values for taxonomy-constrained columns.
