Improvement1.12.6

dbt v1.12.6

dbt v1.12.6 includes improved v2 parser logging, fixes for wildcard FQN selectors, cumulative metrics parsing, and manifest persistence. Several bug fixes address parser output handling, nested model matching, and artifact uploads.

dbt-core 1.12.6 - October 14, 2026

Features

  • Announce dbt v2 availability as an INFO message on dbt --version, with a link to the v2 install docs (#)

Fixes

  • Relay the v2 (Fusion) parser's log output via --log-format otel instead of json-compat, dropping span noise, keeping fusion's error/warning codes, and fixing a latent bug where a stray fusion stderr line could abort the run under --warn-error (#)
  • Bare wildcard FQN selectors (e.g. -s "f_*") now match nested models regardless of subfolder depth (#)
  • Fix cumulative metrics with an input_metric and a top-level window field (v2 metric spec) incorrectly failing to parse with a legacy nested-type_params error (#N/A)
  • Fix compiled_code not persisted to manifest.json when using --use-v2-parser (#)
  • Include semantic_manifest.json in the artifact set uploaded by --upload-to-artifacts-ingest-api, matching other run artifacts (#N/A)
  • Validate that tarball package download locations stay within the dbt downloads directory (#)

Under the Hood

  • Rename internal "Fusion" naming to "v2" for the v2 parser integration (exceptions, module, and test names); no user-facing behavior change (#N/A)
