The chap that makes datasette (the video tour on the home page is an excellent way to spend 20 minutes) also makes a few handy tools for common sqlite manipulation tasks: https://datasette.io/tools https://datasette.io/tools
You can just “pipx install <tool>” to avoid polluting your system python install with dependencies (pipx handles creating virtual environments and putting the tools on your path).
Shout out for the apple healthkit one, i had fun using datasette to explore that db.
The hackernews to sqlite tool works fine (user name is case sensitive).
The page doesn’t document the most universal tool there - sqlite-utils but there’s a sphinx doc for it https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#transforming-tables https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#transfo... some of the transform features are nice time savers.
