## Description As part of https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/18072+ we want empower users and Duo to self-service analytics on GitLab. ### Goal & impact Customers can use Duo powered analytics to self-service their analytical needs: - Find and explore data available to them - Visualize and help explain data - Surface the visualization on our platform Thereby reducing customer reliance on product teams to surface platform data in bespoke analytics dashboards. ### Problem to solve Currently analytics in Duo is very limited because it's limited in what data it can query and it cannot visualize or analyze the result. ### Proposed solution To start, build a new agent, **Data Analyst**, that's powered by GLQL that users can interact with for their analytical needs. ```mermaid flowchart LR A[User asks question] --> B[Duo fetches data] B --> C[Duo visualizes data] C --> D[Duo understands query + result] D --> E[Duo explains result] E --> A style A fill:#6366f1,color:#fff style E fill:#10b981,color:#fff style B fill:#f59e0b,color:#fff style C fill:#f59e0b,color:#fff style D fill:#8b5cf6,color:#fff ``` Additionally the GLQL query should be exportable to dashboards, data explorer and work items.
