Text2Dashboard is a DataBrain-specific prototype (arXiv:2610.06914v1) that converts natural-language analytic requests into inspectable dashboards. The system combines an installable Codex plugin and a standalone Agent Runtime to pair schema-constrained model proposals with typed tools, persistent state, and deterministic Hooks for approval, audit, checkpointing, recovery, and failure handling; its pipeline resolves entities and metadata, enforces read-only SQL, composes dashboards, and runs static checks, dynamic preflight, and browser inspection. Evaluation on frozen real-DataBrain tasks and controlled Hook faults reported: metadata selection 4/4; four SQL tasks met semantic criteria (2/4 met exact output-column contract); the final release succeeded on four single-panel dashboard tasks, one two-panel task, and one existing-dashboard refinement while one parameterized task exceeded a step limit; all ten fault scenarios met specified outcomes without unapproved external side effects; model inference accounted for >97% of observed runtime. The authors note these small, DataBrain-specific results do not establish production readiness, general text-to-SQL accuracy, or an efficiency advantage over manual dashboard construction.
