## Summary Adds `Table::get_lsm_write_spec` returning `Option<LsmWriteSpec>` — the read counterpart to the existing `set_lsm_write_spec` / `unset_lsm_write_spec`. Returns `None` when the MemWAL LSM write path is not enabled; otherwise reconstructs the spec (mode, shard column, `num_buckets`, `maintained_indexes`, `writer_config_defaults`) exactly as installed. ## Changes - **Rust core (`NativeTable`)** — reconstructs the spec from `mem_wal_index_details()`, resolving the shard column from its Lance field id via the dataset schema. This is a raw metadata read, so it is unaffected by `describe_indices` system-index filtering. - **Remote (`RemoteTable`)** — reads the `__lance_mem_wal` system index through `index/list` with `include_system: true` (so the curated `list_indices` surface stays unchanged), then parses the index `details` JSON. It matches the index by name and ignores `index_type`, so no client `IndexType` variant is needed. It uses the **server-resolved `column` name** from the details (Lance field ids do not travel to the remote client). - **Python + TypeScript bindings** — sync and async, mirroring `set`/`unset`, with round-trip tests (bucket / identity / unsharded, plus `None` when unset). ## Tests - Rust: native round-trip unit test + remote mock-endpoint tests (present + absent). All green (`cargo test --features remote -p lancedb`). - Python/TS: round-trip tests added; binding-runtime execution runs in CI. ## Dependencies for the remote path The remote path is complete on the client side but depends on two out-of-repo pieces to work end-to-end: 1. **lance** — emit the server-resolved shard **`column`** name in the MemWAL index `details` JSON (field ids can't reach the client). See lance-format/lance#7667. 2. **server** — honor `include_system` on `index/list` so the `__lance_mem_wal` entry is returned for this read. Against an older server (no `include_system`), the remote getter degrades gracefully to `Ok(None)` rather than erroring. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Usage
Basic Example
import * as lancedb from "@lancedb/lancedb";
const db = await lancedb.connect("data/sample-lancedb");
const table = await db.createTable("my_table", [
{ id: 1, vector: [0.1, 1.0], item: "foo", price: 10.0 },
{ id: 2, vector: [3.9, 0.5], item: "bar", price: 20.0 },
]);
const results = await table.vectorSearch([0.1, 0.3]).limit(20).toArray();
console.log(results);
