database-cli-query

When to use

Use when a task needs deterministic command-line connectivity tests or query execution against supported database engines, or when you need reusable CLI command examples for operators.

Output

• selected engine-specific command form
• required environment variables and auth assumptions
• executed query or metadata command
• result summary and any CLI limitations encountered

Workflow

1. Confirm the target engine and required auth shape.
2. Validate CLI availability and required environment variables.
3. Execute minimal connectivity/query command first (for example SELECT 1).
4. Run target query/filter and summarize outputs.
5. For engines without direct query CLI support, return the supported metadata path and fallback guidance.

Command

• ./commands/database-cli-query.sh <engine> [options]
