- Contextual prompts: seaweedfs:dbname>

🛠️ **Production Features:**
- Comprehensive error handling (JSON + user-friendly)
- Query execution timing and performance metrics
- 30-second timeout protection with graceful handling
- Real MQ integration with hybrid data scanning

📖 **Complete CLI Interface:**
- Full flag support: --server, --interactive, --file, --output, --database, --query
- Auto-detection of execution mode and output format
- Structured help system with practical examples
- Batch processing with multi-query file support

💡 **Advanced WHERE Integration:**
All extended operators (<=, >=, !=, LIKE, IN) fully supported
across all execution modes and output formats.

🎯 **Usage Examples:**
- weed sql --interactive
- weed sql --query 'SHOW DATABASES' --output json
- weed sql --file queries.sql --output csv

+# SeaweedFS Enhanced SQL CLI Features
+
+## 🚀 **ENHANCED CLI EXPERIENCE IMPLEMENTED!**
+
+### ✅ **NEW EXECUTION MODES**
+
+#### **Interactive Mode (Enhanced)**
+```bash
+weed sql --interactive
+# or
+weed sql  # defaults to interactive if no other options
+```
+**Features:**
+- 🎯 Database context switching: `USE database_name;`
+- 🔄 Output format switching: `\format table|json|csv`
+- 📝 Command history (basic implementation)
+- 🌟 Enhanced prompts with current database context
+- ✨ Improved help with advanced WHERE operator examples
+
+#### **Single Query Mode**
+```bash
+weed sql --query "SHOW DATABASES" --output json
+weed sql --database analytics --query "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM metrics"
+```
+
+#### **Batch File Processing**
+```bash
+weed sql --file queries.sql --output csv
+weed sql --file batch_queries.sql --output json
+```
+
+### ✅ **MULTIPLE OUTPUT FORMATS**
+
+#### **Table Format (ASCII)**
+```bash
+weed sql --query "SHOW DATABASES" --output table
+```
+```
++-----------+
+| Database  |
++-----------+
+| analytics |
+| user_data |
++-----------+
+```
+
+#### **JSON Format**
+```bash
+weed sql --query "SHOW DATABASES" --output json
+```
+```json
+{
+  "columns": ["Database"],
+  "count": 2,
+  "rows": [
+    {"Database": "analytics"},
+    {"Database": "user_data"}
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+#### **CSV Format**
+```bash
+weed sql --query "SHOW DATABASES" --output csv
+```
+```csv
+Database
+analytics
+user_data
+```
+
+### ✅ **SMART FORMAT AUTO-DETECTION**
+
+- **Interactive mode:** Defaults to `table` format for readability
+- **Non-interactive mode:** Defaults to `json` format for programmatic use
+- **Override with `--output` flag:** Always respected
+
+### ✅ **DATABASE CONTEXT SWITCHING**
+
+#### **Command Line Context**
+```bash
+weed sql --database analytics --interactive
+# Starts with analytics database pre-selected
+```
+
+#### **Interactive Context Switching**
+```sql
+seaweedfs> USE analytics;
+Database changed to: analytics
+
+seaweedfs:analytics> SHOW TABLES;
+-- Shows tables in analytics database
+```
+
+### ✅ **COMPREHENSIVE HELP SYSTEM**
+
+#### **Enhanced Help Command**
+```sql
+seaweedfs> help;
+```
+Shows:
+- 📊 **Metadata Operations:** SHOW, DESCRIBE commands
+- 🔍 **Advanced Querying:** Full WHERE clause support
+- 📝 **DDL Operations:** CREATE, DROP TABLE
+- ⚙️ **Special Commands:** USE, \format, help, exit
+- 🎯 **Extended WHERE Operators:** All supported operators with examples

+### ✅ **ADVANCED WHERE CLAUSE SUPPORT**
+
+All implemented and working in CLI:
+
+```sql
+-- Comparison operators
+SELECT * FROM events WHERE user_id <= 100;
+SELECT * FROM events WHERE timestamp >= '2023-01-01';
+
+-- Not equal operators  
+SELECT * FROM events WHERE status != 'deleted';
+SELECT * FROM events WHERE status <> 'inactive';
+
+-- Pattern matching
+SELECT * FROM events WHERE username LIKE 'admin%';
+SELECT * FROM events WHERE email LIKE '%@company.com';
+
+-- Multi-value matching
+SELECT * FROM events WHERE status IN ('active', 'pending', 'verified');
+SELECT * FROM events WHERE user_id IN (1, 5, 10, 25);
+
+-- Complex combinations
+SELECT * FROM events 
+WHERE user_id >= 10 
+  AND status != 'deleted' 
+  AND username LIKE 'test%'
+  AND user_type IN ('premium', 'enterprise');
+```
+
+## 🛠️ **COMMAND LINE INTERFACE**
