Local Structured Data Analysis
Analyzes supplied data rather than independently gathering or verifying it. Types, joins, missing values and aggregation choices can change conclusions. Extensions and remote data sources have separate execution and privacy implications from local analysis.
Keep originals; inspect schema and nulls; declare types; check key uniqueness; query a sample; reconcile totals; save SQL and outputs with source and version notes.
English-first editorial profile. Verify current interface languages and source-language coverage; multilingual input does not guarantee equal analytical quality.
Limits
Strengths, caveats, and risk
Local analytical queries make filtering, joins and aggregation reproducible.
Incorrect joins, inferred types and memory assumptions can produce misleading results.
A fast query can still amplify bad data; source coverage and transformation logic must be audited.

Use permitted documents, minimize personal data and review upload or publication permissions.
Keep original source files and inspect every transformation used to support a published claim. Official-source desk research only; not hands-on tested. Tool-specific caution: A fast query can still amplify bad data; source coverage and transformation logic must be audited.
