Could you build this?
Partial A cross-platform desktop UI is vibe-codeable, but parsing DAX, Power Query (M), Fabric semantic models, and extracting capacity memory telemetry requires deep proprietary Microsoft ecosystem expertise.
What it would actually take: Requires interfacing with Microsoft Analysis Services client libraries (TOM/AMO, XMLA endpoints) or parsing Tabular Model Definition Language (TMDL) files. The tool must run AST parsers for DAX expressions and Power Query M code to build a static dependency graph and determine unused columns, alongside interrogating VertiPaq engine dynamic management views (DMVs) for memory usage. The hard requirement is deep domain mastery of the Power BI/Fabric internal object models and VertiPaq storage engine internals.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a analytics & bi tool for Legal yet.
