Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified.
Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: In env.py import the declarative Base and all model modules, set target_metadata = Base.metadata (or a list of MetaData); use include_name/include_object to exclude tables not managed by the models. Option: Wire models into env.py [evidence: official_recommended_action] Applies when: See record scope. Steps: 1. from myapp.models import Base # ensure all model modules are imported 2. target_metadata = Base.metadata 3. alembic revision --autogenerate -m init Expected: Command proceeds without the error. Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
