Granted I'm the author, but until I get around to rewriting it from the ground up, I really think it saves a lot of time for editing single cells, querying, and viewing in a headless environment.

In Bubble Tea: fun, functional and stateful way to build terminal appsI'll plug https://github.com/mathaou/termdbms for people who need a terminal based SQLite management solution
In Ask HN: Have you used SQLite as a primary database?I made https://github.com/mathaou/termdbms with charm libraries and I highly recommend it. Very, very slick and easy to get started.
In Textualize – A framework for building Text User Interface applicationsI made a headless sqlite dbms (not nearly as feature rich as the real thing) for my own embedded development. It can show the values of any table, view specific cells, update cells with a text editor interface, beautifies json, and takes in SQL queries as well.
Got some bugs with formatting complex lines of text, but it works well enough for me. I plan on porting to Rust one of these days.

I'm adding line wrapping support for format mode. Managing SQLite db of poetry to test it's been fun.
