Research direction

The issue does not name implementation files or tests. Start by reading the existing SQLite driver and how database connections and credentials are handled; then investigate the project's build and runtime requirements for SQLCipher. Done means encrypted SQLite databases support read, write, and queries using a passphrase, with tests covering those operations.
