Description

There are a few things in there that could be useful for ggsql:

  • registerDataImporter — an extension declares file extensions it can read and generates the code that loads a file into a variable, shown to the user before it runs. Dragging a csv/parquet into Positron could offer "ggsql" and generate a SELECT … FROM 'file.csv'. It comes with a full filter/sort/view vocabulary (DataImportView, DataImportRowFilter, DataImportSortKey, …).
  • registerAgentSkillRoot / getAgentSkillRoots — registers a directory whose subdirectories each hold a SKILL.md. This will allow agents to automatically discover the ggsql skill

Research direction

Start at the project’s positron dependency declaration and compare its current version with 0.2.9. Update that dependency, then verify the project still resolves and passes its existing checks; done means the extension builds with the new version and can access the mentioned Positron APIs.
