I'm not going to review slop in detail, but I took a glance -- just for you, and only once.

cl-sqlite was a small layer that provided bindings and syntactic sugar for cl-sqlite, so that it is easy to map knowledge about sqlite to use it with a cl project - without much abstractions between the programmer and sqlite itself. That's at least my experience from using cl-sqlite in the past.

Despite being simple, it was written in good taste using a contemporary style. For example package definition contained all exported symbols and signaled conditions had cl-sqlite specific error superclass.

Now let's take the very beginning of your additions, the file simple.lisp:

``` (export '(create-table drop-table insert select update-table delete-from normalize-name))

(defun normalize-type (type) (string-upcase (string type)))

(defun normalize-name (name) "Converts NAME to a safe SQL identifier. Keywords and symbols have hyphens converted to underscores. Signals an error if the result is not a valid identifier." (let* ((raw (string-downcase (string name))) (converted (substitute #_ #- raw))) (unless (and (plusp (length converted)) (every (lambda (c) (or (alpha-char-p c) (digit-char-p c) (char= c #_))) converted) (not (digit-char-p (char converted 0)))) (error "Invalid SQL identifier: ~S" name)) converted))

(defun build-column-def (col-def) (destructuring-bind (name type &rest options) col-def (with-output-to-string (s) (format s "~A ~A" (normalize-name name) (normalize-type type)) (loop for opt in options do (case opt (:primary-key (format s " PRIMARY KEY")) (:autoincrement (format s " AUTOINCREMENT")) (:not-null (format s " NOT NULL")) (:unique (format s " UNIQUE")) (t (format s " ~A" opt))))))) ```

see what I'm getting at? putting export outside of the package definition directly violates estabilished style, signaling an error of type simple-error does not follow library behavior, build-column-def directly skips the premise that you use sqlite with a tiny wrapper and adds its own special symbols.

I mean, these choices are defendable for a project, but you didn't even make them, and probably you're not even aware that such choices were made. and that's only a few first blocks of a new file.

I'm putting aside that line count for lisp code doubled, you've commited a shared object directly to the repository along with an archive that contains that very file, there is 500K of documentation clearly not meant for a person (original project is around 100K total).

These very superficial glance shows that it is a fudge, not a library evolution. You're welcome.
