We're excited to announce duckdb-skills, a DuckDB plugin for Claude Code! We think the embedded nature of DuckDB makes it a perfect companion for Claude in your local workflows. The skills supported include: + read-file and query – uses DuckDB's CLI to query data locally, unlocking easy access to any file that DuckDB can read. + read-memories – a clever idea to store your Claude memories in DuckDB and query them at blazing speed. These are powered by two additional skills: + attach-db – gives Claude a mechanism to manage DuckDB state through a .sql file linked to your project. + duckdb-docs – uses a remote DuckDB full-text search database to query the DuckDB docs and answer all of your (and Claude's own) questions.

There are 5 million oil and gas wells across the US - but you want to know what's going on in your area. AI helps you cut through the noise. Draw a shape on the map, query the wells - AI tells you who's operating, what they're drilling, how deep they're going.

Let Postgres own the Iceberg catalog and delegate analytics to DuckDB. The result => transactional lakehouse updates with fast analytical queries. This isn’t a concept. It’s exactly what pg_lake delivers today. pg_lake combines a set of extensions and components that let you query and modify Iceberg tables (and other lakehouse formats) directly from Postgres. DuckDB is used to accelerate analytical queries and runs in a sidecar process called pgduck_server, which communicates with Postgres during query execution. How it works (diagram below): 1. An application sends a query to Postgres to calculate unrealized PnL (Profit and Loss) for the Disney ticker. 2. Postgres parses the query and identifies the part that computes the average price from historical lakehouse data. 3. That part is forwarded to pgduck_server for accelerated execution. 4. pgduck_server delegates execution to DuckDB, which queries the lakehouse (reusing cached data if available). 5. DuckDB computes the average price and returns it to Postgres. 6. Postgres joins the result with local portfolio data and computes the unrealized PnL. 7. The final result is returned to the application.

I imagine a world where your dreams manifest before your eyes in real time. A place where the landscapes of your mind no longer remain trapped in your imagination, but are instantly visualized by a companion who understands your thoughts perfectly. You simply envision a scene and your companion brings it to life, rendering every detail exactly as you imagined it.
