Thanks! If you point it at your own schema, I'd be curious which dialect and whether anything trips it up.

“Drop” is a loaded verb in a SQL context. “Add” or “paste” might avoid the raised eyebrow.

Drop schema, get an interactive ER diagram — that's the kind of boring tool I bookmark and come back to on every migration.
