In-process analytical SQL database. Its CLI queries CSV, Parquet and JSON files directly with SQL, no import or server needed, so agents can sample and aggregate large files. Officially maintained.

Framework for writing data transformation models in SQL or Python, with a Terraform-like plan/apply flow, virtual data environments, unit tests and table diffs, and transpilation across 10+ SQL dialects. A Linux Foundation project and an alternative to dbt.

Helps agents write geospatial SQL for PostGIS, DuckDB, BigQuery and Snowflake: inspect schemas and keep query costs in check, then render results as interactive maps to review and correct. Needs Python and your own database or warehouse; maps use Dekart, which can run locally in Docker.

Official DuckDB skills: query local or S3 CSV, Parquet, Excel and JSON files with SQL or plain language, attach databases, convert formats, analyze spatial data and look up documentation. Needs the DuckDB CLI; tested only on macOS and Linux.
