+- Prefer predictable `--name` values: `chain_<topic>_<YYYYMMDD>`.
 - Record long-lived chains in **context:DATAMODEL → Derived tables (Chain)** with the **full** SQL name you use (`datasets.…` or `database.schema.table`).
 - Promote join/grain findings to **context:DATAMODEL** when they should be shared or persisted (**`hotdata`** skill).

 3. Note the printed **`full_name`** (e.g. `datasets.main.orders`) — do not assume `datasets.main`.
 4. Inspect if needed: `hotdata datasets list`, `hotdata datasets <dataset_id>`.
