chdb

Use when the user has tabular data (pandas DataFrame, parquet, csv, Arrow, json) and wants to filter, group, aggregate, join, or speed up slow pandas. Provides chDB DataStore — same pandas API, ClickHouse engine underneath. Also handles reading from S3, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, ClickHouse Cloud, Iceberg, Delta Lake as DataFrames and joining across sources. TRIGGER when: user mentions DataFrame, parquet, csv, "fast pandas", "speed up pandas", or cross-source DataFrame joins; user imports `chdb.datastore` or `from datastore import DataStore`. SKIP this skill for raw SQL syntax (use chdb-sql instead), ClickHouse server administration, or non-Python DataStore API work.

Use when the user wants to run SQL — especially analytical SQL — on local files (parquet/csv/json), URLs, S3 paths, or remote databases (Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, ClickHouse Cloud, Iceberg, Delta Lake) without setting up a server. Provides chDB — embedded ClickHouse SQL in Python with 1000+ functions, Session for stateful multi-step pipelines, parametrized queries, and cross-source joins via `s3()`, `mysql()`, `postgresql()`, `iceberg()`, `deltaLake()`, `remoteSecure()` table functions. TRIGGER when: user wants SQL on parquet/csv/files or across remote analytical sources; uses ClickHouse SQL features (window functions, windowFunnel, geoToH3, JSON path ops, Session, parametrized queries); imports `chdb` or calls `chdb.query()`. SKIP this skill for pandas-style DataFrame method-chaining (use chdb-datastore instead) or ClickHouse server administration.
