Summary
Connection hooks for dynamically resolving database credentials
Problem
Some workflows require dynamically resolving connection details (e.g. starting a local proxy and fetching credentials from a secrets manager) before a database connection can be established. The tool currently assumes static connection parameters, which makes these setups unsupported.
Proposed Solution
Add support for connection lifecycle hooks (pre-connect / on-connect) that allow running custom commands or scripts to dynamically supply host, port, username, and password at connection time.
Additional Context
Example use case:
- Start a local Cloud SQL proxy
- Fetch database credentials from a secrets manager
This pattern is common for cloud-managed databases and secrets-based auth.
