KarthikSandXuanwo 180eaaf68e fix!: reject unsupported remote connection and table options (#4486)
Fixes #4399.

Remote connections currently discard local-only settings, including
table write options that determine storage format. The synchronous
Python client also binds the fourth positional `create_table` argument
to `on_bad_vectors`, so an intended overwrite is sent as a create.

This change aligns the remote Python signature with
`DBConnection.create_table`, preserves the legacy remote timeout
keywords, and raises `ValueError` for other unknown connection keywords.
The shared Rust client rejects unsupported connection, create, and open
options before sending HTTP requests; open validation also runs before a
table-cache hit. Python reports these as `NotImplementedError`,
including explicit `enable_v2_manifest_paths=False`. Supported
Enterprise connection-level storage options remain available.

This implements option 2 from the issue: explicit rejection. It
deliberately does not add unverified server write parameters. Calls that
previously supplied ignored options must omit them to use server-managed
storage and caching. Database URI prefixes are already preserved on
current main and are unchanged here.

Regression tests cover Python sync/async, TypeScript create/open calls,
and the Rust remote client, including empty-table creation, overwrite
mode, and cached table handles. Python API documentation describes the
behavior and corrected positional order.

Reconciled with main at `0ea932da`, preserving upstream blob and
error-handling tests and updating the Python test that previously
expected open options to be ignored.

Validation on the merged source:

- Rebuilt the Python native extension; 304 tests passed across remote
options, database, remote database, and session suites.
- Rust remote database suite: 135 passed. Rebuilt the Node native
extension; TypeScript remote suite: 62 passed. TypeScript compilation
and documentation generation passed.
- Full Python SDK lint and formatting pass (159 files); full TypeScript
lint and formatting pass (66 files). Rust formatting and `git diff
--check` pass.
- Repository-wide Python lint/format reports existing issues in
unchanged `docs/web-tests` files (49 lint findings and 11 formatting
files).

Environment: Ubuntu under WSL2, Linux x86-64, CPython 3.12.13, Rust
1.97.0, and Node.js 22.16.0. Locked dependencies and the repository `ci`
build profile. Remote tests use HTTP fixtures; this does not claim
validation against the original ARM64 single-node deployment.

Documentation review follow-up: added a draft Enterprise migration note
in `docs/web/basics/sdk.mdx`. It explains that `db://` connections
reject local session/cache and per-table storage/write options, while
supported connection-level Enterprise storage options remain available.
Following the repository's release conventions, the note stays in an MDX
comment below the migration list until the behavior is released. Vale
3.24.0 with the pinned LanceDB style package reports no findings; `git
diff --check` passes. This follow-up changes documentation only.

BREAKING CHANGE: Remote connections now reject unsupported local
session/cache and per-table storage/write options instead of silently
ignoring them. Callers must omit these options and use server-managed
storage and caching; supported Enterprise connection-level storage
options remain available.

Integration with current main preserves its synchronous API signatures,
including the remote `create_table(mode=None)` default, and the table
compatibility defaults. The positional-order repair is already on main
via #4608; this PR retains the distinct unsupported-option rejection
behavior.

CI follow-up: the inherited IVF search-effort test occasionally measured
recall 0.375 against its unchanged 0.5 threshold after random index
training. A matching local reproducer observed this once in 30 builds.
The fixture now places the eight exact neighbors together, preserving
the 16-partition setup, two writes, all probe/precedence assertions, and
the recall threshold. The adjusted fixture returned recall 1.0 in 100
builds; the full query and remote suites passed (102 tests). This
stabilizes test data and does not change search behavior or promise
production recall.

Brendan Clement 486f6c66bb docs: revise getting started and concepts (#4491)
This PR is part of the documentation revamp. Once the full set of PRs is
merged, we’ll publish the combined site to staging for review before
updating docs.lancedb.com.

The introductory pages are inconsistent, and the old PR split asked
reviewers to review some pages twice.

This brings the final quickstart, connection guide, architecture and
Concepts pages together. It clarifies OSS and Enterprise, simplifies
naming rules and includes the navigation and diagram fixes from #4489.

Function and Secret details on the Concepts pages are MDX comments until
their release, and CONTRIBUTING.md explains how to write docs before a
release.

Includes #4532. Ingestion, search and integrations are in #4533; data
workflows, SQL and operations are in #4534. Each MDX file has one PR
owner.

Local assembly, Mint validation and link checks pass. The Function pages
stay published from `main` until #4534 hides them, so hold publication
until the complete stack is integrated.

Jack YeandBrendan Clement 47b7babc08 docs: bring the open-source documentation into this repository (#4122)
Move the public website pages into `docs/web` beside the SDK, with
shared navigation and executable example sources in `docs/web-tests`.
The combined website is assembled by
[lancedb/docs#355](https://github.com/lancedb/docs/pull/355), with six
Enterprise replacements from
[lancedb/sophon#7681](https://github.com/lancedb/sophon/pull/7681).

This includes Function guidance, runnable Quickstarts, regenerated
snippets, production contact/demo fixes, the legacy SQL route, and the
LeRobot redirect. LeRobot remains attributed to Geneva; all 34 Geneva
pages remain in the docs repository until Function officially launches.

Materialized-view guidance follows the full rebuild refresh introduced
by #4373: local refresh writes the complete result, has no `full`
argument, supports `source_version`, and no longer requires stable row
IDs. Deployment SQL refresh options and stable-ID setup are qualified by
version/configuration. Function input guidance distinguishes ordinary
stored columns from computed inputs supported by newer deployments.

**Validation:** independently accepted local checks include 95 Python
tests (real Enterprise excluded), eight TypeScript tests, Rust
Quickstart, snippet parity, typos, deterministic assembly, Mint
validation and links/anchors/redirects. The combined baseline retains
all 181 production routes and 17 legacy redirects. Examples ran locally
against source-built Python SDK 0.40.0b13; existing GitHub workflows do
not run `docs/web-tests`. New main at `069b2f7d` is 0.41.0b0 and adds
computed Function inputs; that SDK was not exercised by the accepted
tests. Latest prose corrections receive focused site validation.

**Merge/rollout:** merge this and #7681 before #355's combined CI, which
reads producer `main`. This is migration infrastructure: section
overlays, source-owned skills and automatic versioned paired releases
remain follow-ups. The current manual publisher is transitional. Hosted
validation, a supported SDK/Enterprise release pair and a real
Enterprise walkthrough remain pending.

Production Mintlify watches `lancedb/docs:deploy-freeze`, directory
`docs`; preserve that source through review. The separate SDK GitHub
Pages reference workflow rebuilds on main merges.

**Updated-head CI (9a50f8db):**
[Typos](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/actions/runs/37654185443/job/112904990558),
[PR
title](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/actions/runs/37654179507/job/112904974595)
and
[Aikido](https://app.aikido.dev/featurebranch/scan/215386145?groupId=74229)
pass. Critical findings in the example lockfiles were patched: all Sharp
copies use 0.35.5, protobufjs 7.6.6, tar 7.5.22, quinn-proto 0.11.19,
zerovec 0.11.8 and zerovec-derive 0.11.6. The SDK's product dependencies
are unchanged. The revised lockfiles pass eight TypeScript examples,
HuggingFace decode/resize/crop/rescale/normalize plus AVIF roundtrip,
and Rust Quickstart. Aikido passing does not mean every advisory is
cleared; npm still reports 29 high and five moderate advisories in the
example dependency graph. No scanner bypass or suppression was added.

The Function prose correction passes combined/standalone Mint,
deterministic assembly, routes and assets. The revised 325-file site
checksum is
`175bec06864abb400dd292e667ba93448c0479b8359fd7bf6146afabf9040647`. This
PR remains open for independent review; further merges are on hold.
