# Rudder Lookout Integrations


{{< customreadfile "/includes/lookout/beta-callout.md" >}}

Each Lookout integration plugs a real tool into the chat agent, so you can ask for something in plain language and the agent acts through the same connection you would use yourself.

{{< info >}}
The agent can only touch a system when that integration is configured for your workspace, and the surface it gets is exactly what the integration provides. With nothing connected, the agent can still chat — it just has no external reach.

## Overview

The Lookout integrations fall into two groups:

- **Data and code systems**: RudderStack, warehouses, and GitHub — these give the agent the ability to read your data and inspect your control plane.
- **Access surfaces**: Slack and the Lookout MCP connection for external AI tools — these define where you can talk to the agent and who else can drive its tools.

## Supported integrations

| Integration | <div style="width: 350px;">What it unlocks</div> |
|-------------|------------------------------------------------|
| [Warehouses]({{< ref "lookout/integrations/warehouses.md" >}}) | Ask questions of your warehouse in natural language. Lookout supports PostgreSQL, Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery, Databricks, and ClickHouse currently, with **read-only** access |
| [GitHub]({{< ref "lookout/integrations/github.md" >}}) | Read repositories for context — files, commits, and pull-request diffs |
| [RudderStack]({{< ref "lookout/integrations/rudderstack.md" >}}) | Read and manage sources, destinations, transformations, Tracking Plans, and Audiences configured in RudderStack |
| [Link Repositories to Warehouses]({{< ref "lookout/integrations/sources.md" >}}) | Link GitHub repositories to a warehouse so the agent knows which code describes which data |
| [Slack]({{< ref "lookout/integrations/slack.md" >}}) | Chat with the agent from a Slack DM or a bound channel |
| [External AI Tools]({{< ref "lookout/integrations/external-mcp.md" >}}) | Let approved external AI tools call a curated set of Lookout tools through the Lookout MCP |

## How the integrations work

Each integration is wired into the agent only when it is configured. Warehouse tools appear once a warehouse is connected, and repository tools appear once repositories are linked. You connect a system once, and the same connection powers chat, dashboards, audiences, and Slack.

Most integrations are connected by a workspace admin, because connecting a system is a workspace-level decision. Once connected, the agent can use it on behalf of any member.
