Package Exports
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@sdjz/usql) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
usql
Query any database from terminal. Feed your database to LLMs.

npm i -g @sdjz/usqlAI Integration
Generate a token-optimized schema dump for ChatGPT, Claude, or any LLM:
usql inspect ./myapp.db{"v":1,"d":"sqlite","t":{"users":{"c":{"id":"s","name":"s","email":"s"},"pk":["id"],"fk":[],"s":[{"id":"1","name":"Alice"}]}}}Paste this into your AI chat. It now understands your schema, relationships, and sample data.
usql inspect postgres://localhost/prod --pretty # Human-readable
usql inspect ./app.db --rows 5 # More sample rowsQuick Start
# Query any database
usql ./data.db "SELECT * FROM users"
usql postgres://user:pass@host/db "SELECT now()"
usql mysql://user:pass@host/db "SHOW TABLES"
# Use -c for complex SQL (avoids shell quote issues)
usql ./data.db -c "SELECT * FROM logs WHERE msg LIKE '%error%'"
# Output formats
usql ./data.db "SELECT * FROM users" --format=csv
usql ./data.db "SELECT * FROM users" --format=json
usql ./data.db "SELECT * FROM users" --full # No truncationDrivers auto-install on first use. Zero config.
