azuresql-db-dab
Stands up an instant no-code REST + GraphQL API over the local Azure SQL Database container using Microsoft Data API Builder (DAB). Use when a user wants to "expose my table as an API", "add a REST API over the database", "generate a GraphQL API", "put an API in front of SQL", "CRUD API without writing code", or "dab init / dab-config.json". Also the way to serve a built-in MCP endpoint FROM the database via DAB (an API surface DAB provides, not a separate SQL MCP server). Prefer this over hand-writing a controller/ORM API when the user just needs REST or GraphQL over existing tables. Triggers include "Data API Builder", "dab start", "instant API over Azure SQL", "expose entities as REST/GraphQL". Reach for this even when the user only says "give me an API for this database".
