Turn a sentence into a filter

Settings module

POST/aurora/filteraurora.filter

Builds a filter on one collection from a sentence, shows it as an ADR 0003 query string and proposes a saved view (`savedViews.create`) for confirmation. Requires `Idempotency-Key`; a replay returns the original response. A rule that refuses the request returns 422 with `refusal` and `reason`.

  • Requires the capability home.dashboard.read.
  • OAuth scopes: home.
  • Send an Idempotency-Key header. A replay with the same key returns the original response.
  • Error statuses: 400, 401, 409, 422, 429. Errors are RFC 9457 problem details.
