Description

Hi there,

I'm working with spinning up datasette instances as part of a system which has multiple sqlite dbs in an archive. I'm wondering about how easy it would be to add a /health/ endpoint to Datasette or whether something like that already exists?

Should i just make a PR or do you have any kind of feature design process?

Thanks!

Stephen

Research direction

The issue does not identify any files, tests, or entry points. First determine whether Datasette already has a health-check endpoint and clarify what /health/ should report for instances with multiple SQLite databases. A finished change would need an agreed endpoint design and tests covering its behavior.
