/-/databases previously listed every attached database (including
filesystem paths and sizes) to any actor with view-instance, while the
homepage and every other endpoint filtered by view-database. The
endpoint now only lists databases the current actor is allowed to view.
JsonDataView data callbacks may now be async.

/-/actions.json now returns {"ok": true, "actions": [...]} instead of a
bare JSON array, so the response can grow additional keys without a
breaking change. The debug_actions.html template reads data.actions,
and the endpoint is now documented in docs/introspection.rst.

/-/plugins.json now returns {"ok": true, "plugins": [...]} instead of a
bare JSON array, so the response can grow additional keys without a
breaking change. The `datasette plugins` CLI command still outputs a
plain array.

JsonDataView now injects "ok": true into dict responses, covering
/-/versions, /-/settings, /-/config, /-/threads and /-/actor. The
homepage JSON, /-/jump, the three /-/schema endpoints, /-/allowed,
/-/rules, /-/check, POST /-/permissions and the table /-/autocomplete
endpoint set it explicitly.
The remaining top-level array endpoints (/-/plugins, /-/databases,
/-/actions) will be converted to objects in separate commits.

All JSON error responses now use a single format built by the new
datasette.utils.error_body() helper:
{"ok": false, "error": "...", "errors": ["..."], "status": 400}
- error is all messages joined with '; ', errors is the full list,
status always matches the HTTP status code
- The exception handler no longer emits the legacy title key in JSON
(it is still available to the HTML error template)
- The permission debug endpoints (/-/allowed, /-/rules, /-/check,
POST /-/permissions) no longer return bare {"error": ...} objects
- JSON renderer SQL errors keep their rows/truncated context keys but
now include the canonical keys as well
- _shape=object misuse (queries or tables without primary keys) now
returns HTTP 400 instead of 200 with an error body
- Method-not-allowed 405 responses use the canonical shape
Adds tests/test_error_shape.py covering all four previous shape
producers, updates affected tests, and documents the format in a new
'Error responses' section of docs/json_api.rst.
Implements section 1 of stable-api-recommendations.md.

Render omitted auto integer primary key values as muted auto text in the bulk insert preview so generated IDs are easier to understand.
Expose the auto primary key flag in insert UI metadata and cover the preview behavior in Playwright.
New create-view and drop-view actions.
Also fix a related bug in analyze_sql_tables(): SQLite's authorizer fires a spurious SQLITE_DELETE callback against the view name when a view is dropped (the same thing it does for dropped tables), which was incorrectly surfaced as a delete-row requirement on the view. Broaden the existing drop-table-delete suppression to cover dropped views too.
Closes#2819
- Add foreignKeyTargetsPath to create table page data
- Filter hidden tables from database-level foreign key target results
- Update JSON API docs and tests for filtered targets
Returns a list of tables with a single primary key, and for each one
the name of that primary key column and its SQLite type affinity.
This will be used by the create table UI to suggest foreign keys.
- Add add_foreign_key, drop_foreign_key, and set_foreign_keys operations.
- Validate flat fk_table and fk_column arguments with Pydantic.
- Document the API and cover inferred primary-key and validation cases.
- Add fk_table and optional fk_column support to create-table columns.
- Validate create-table requests with Pydantic while preserving existing errors.
- Document the API and cover inferred primary-key and validation cases.

- Extract reusable helpers for database and table action permission preloading.
- Precompute those permissions before building table-page HTML data.
- Document the default table actions plugin.
- Add POST /<database>/<table>/-/alter with Pydantic validation and dry-run support.
- Support add, rename, alter, drop, primary-key and reorder operations, including allow-listed default expressions.
- Document the endpoint and cover schema changes, validation, permissions, events and dry runs.
