DuckDB is very addictive - be careful! After two or three weeks you discover that you use it in almost every complex command instead of jq/awk/sed/other venerable relic.
Everything that looks like json or csv - is a table for you. An app uses sqlite - you can read it too.
Effectively that means that almost all structured data around you could be queried whithout any transformation
