Syntax highlights the query. Output in a table, CSV, JSON, or Apache Arrow. Supports non-interactive queries from the CLI rather than using the TUI. ### Tradeoffs Requires an ADBC driver to exist, which means you can’t query some popular databases like MySQL, Clickhouse, etc. This review reflects Console’s assessment at publication on 2026-06-18.
