Snow CLI

Snow CLI is a command-line tool that lets you query Snowflake directly from your terminal. Because Claude integrates natively with Snow CLI, it can run Snowflake queries on your behalf automatically.

Step 1 - Update your configuration file​

Snow CLI stores named connections in ~/.snowflake/config.toml. Add the host parameter to route queries through Yuki:

[connections.default]
account   = "your-account-locator"
user      = "you@example.com"
password  = "*******"
warehouse = "your_warehouse"
host      = "snowflake-locator.yukicomputing.com"
note

Only the host parameter needs to change - all other values (credentials, account, role, warehouse) remain exactly as they are.

Step 2 - Run queries as usual​

No changes to your workflow are needed. Run queries the same way you always have:

snow sql -q "SELECT CURRENT_USER()"

Yuki intercepts the query transparently.

How it works with Claude​

Snow CLI uses a standard configuration file that Claude can read and update. Once the host parameter is set, Claude will automatically route all Snowflake queries through the Yuki proxy without any additional steps on your end.
