Data Science at the Command Line, 2nd Edition (2021)
I'd like to call out one of my favorite pieces of software from the past 10 years: VisiData [1] has completely changed the way I do ad-hoc data processing, and is now my go-to for pretty much all use cases that I previously used spreadsheets for, and about half of those I previously used databases for.
It's a TUI application, not strictly CLI, but scriptable, and I figure anyone building pipelines using tools like jq, q, awk, grep, etc. to process tabular data will find it extremely useful.

SQLite interface(s) for creating complex queries with a table that has 68 million rows?
You can try Visidata

Terminal Based Programs?
VisiData is an awesome terminal spreadsheet tool. edbrowse for internet browsing.

Plugin for pretty rendering of data?
Have you ever tried out visidata? It's not vim, but it's a terminal app with vim-like keybindings for visualizing tabular data (and it can convert from other types like json). Not quite a neovim buffer, but you could always open visidata in a new terminal buffer.

Jaq – A jq clone focused on correctness, speed, and simplicity
Have you tried `gron`?
It converts your nested json into a line by line format which plays better with tools like `grep`
From the project's README:
â–¶ gron "https://api.github.com/repos/tomnomnom/gron/commits?per_page..." | fgrep "commit.author"
json[0].commit.author = {};
json[0].commit.author.date = "2016-07-02T10:51:21Z";
json[0].commit.author.email = "[email protected]";
json[0].commit.author.name = "Tom Hudson";
https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron
It was suggested to me in HN comments on an article I wrote about `jq`, and I have found myself using it a lot in my day to day workflow

jq 1.7 Released
And jless [1] and gron [2].
This is the first I'm hearing of gron, but adding here for completeness sake. Meanwhile, JSON seems to be becoming a standard for CLI tools. Ideal scenario would be if every CLI tool has a --json flag or something similar, so that jc is not needed anymore.
