Summary

Fills in the dbt MetricFlow integration page with details that landed with the CLI's native MetricFlow translation, and cross-links it from the Metrics reference.

Changes

  • references/integrations/dbt-metricflow.mdx
    • Added a Requirements subsection covering dbt Core 1.6+ (manifest v10) and CLI-only availability (server-side translation is on the roadmap).
    • Documented ${TABLE} qualification of bare-column expr values.
    • Documented percentile-value normalization between the legacy 0–1 fraction and the latest 0–100 scale.
    • Added agg: percentile without a numeric percentile to the "not supported yet" table.
    • Called out that ratio / derived / cumulative / filtered metrics and server-side translation are roadmap items.
    • Tightened the example's follow-up sentence to describe the translated metrics in Lightdash terms.
  • references/metrics.mdx
    • Added a callout in "Adding metrics to your project" pointing MetricFlow users to the integration page so they don't duplicate metrics in meta.metrics.

Context

Reflects the CLI change in lightdash/lightdash#25478, which reads semantic_models and MetricFlow metrics from the dbt manifest and translates the supported subset into Lightdash metrics on lightdash compile / preview / deploy.
