## DuckDB
File-backed local connector using `@duckdb/node-api`. DuckDB support is
local-file only in v1.
### Connection config
```yaml title="ktx.yaml"
connections:
warehouse:
driver: duckdb
path: data/warehouse.duckdb
```
KTX opens the configured file read-only and fails if the file is missing,
points to a directory, or uses `:memory:`.
### Features
| Feature | Supported | Notes |
|---------|-----------|-------|
| Tables & views | Yes | Via `information_schema.tables` |
| Primary keys | Yes | Via `duckdb_constraints()` |
| Foreign keys | Yes | Via `duckdb_constraints()` |
| Row count estimates | Yes | Exact count via `SELECT COUNT(*)` |
| Column statistics | No | - |
| Query history | No | - |
| Table sampling | Yes | - |
| Nested analysis | No | - |
