datasette-queries. I released the first alpha of a new plugin to replace the crusty old datasette-saved-queries. This one adds a new UI element to the top of the query results page with an expandable form for saving the query as a new canned query:

It's my first plugin to depend on LLM and datasette-llm-usage - it uses GPT-4o mini to power an optional "Suggest title and description" button, labeled with the becoming-standard ✨ sparkles emoji to indicate an LLM-powered feature.

I intend to expand this to work across multiple models as I continue to iterate on llm-datasette-usage to better support those kinds of patterns.

For the moment though each suggested title and description call costs about 250 input tokens and 50 output tokens, which against GPT-4o mini adds up to 0.0067 cents.
