Runs SQL in your browser against the published ClinVar-GKM Parquet tables over
data.clinvar-gkm.org — nothing is downloaded to disk and no server runs the query. Best for
exploration: counts, schema, single-table and targeted lookups return in about a second. A query that runs
longer than 10 seconds is stopped, with the steps to download its tables and run it on your machine.
How it works. The DuckDB engine (~35 MB WASM, served from this site) loads on your first Run and
is cached by your browser afterwards. It reads Parquet with HTTP range requests, so count(*) and
DESCRIBE fetch only the file footer.
{BASE} in a query is replaced with the Parquet path. Parquet is derived from the JSON bundle and
overwritten every release, so there is one dataset, the latest; the Release label shows the release it was
built from, read from the live index.json.
The connection runs with SET threads=1 to stay gentle on the CDN; a parallel full scan of a big
table can trip rate limiting (HTTP 429); joins across the big tables belong on your machine, materialized once. To keep load on the shared service light, the console
runs at most one query every 10 seconds — the Run button greys out and a countdown beside it
shows when the next query is available — and stops any query still running after 10 seconds
(the engine reloads from your browser cache on the next Run). Multiple statements separated by ; run in order and the
last result is shown. Output is capped at 500 rows.
