Changes in version 0.1.0 Initial release. - duckspending_connection() opens a DuckDB connection over the USAspending DuckLake archive at https://usaspending.grant-witness.us. Defaults to the latest snapshot; pass snapshots = "YYYYMMDD" to pin to a historical snapshot, or snapshots = "all" to attach every published snapshot at once and expose them as date-named schemas. The package caches both the connection and the catalog file per session for sub-millisecond repeat calls. - duckspending_snapshots() and duckspending_latest() discover available snapshots from a manifest on the archive (1 h disk cache). - duckspending_tbl(name, snapshot, conn) returns a lazy dplyr reference to any user-facing table. Convenience accessors for the headline tables: duckspending_subawards(), duckspending_assistance_transactions(), duckspending_procurement_transactions(), duckspending_agencies(), duckspending_recipients(). - duckspending_attach() / duckspending_detach() / duckspending_attached() manage extra snapshots on an open connection at runtime. Defensive argument-order check catches the common (conn, snapshot) swap with a clean error. - duckspending_describe() lists tables and columns across attached snapshots; the description column auto-populates from duckspending_descriptions() (per-session ETag/Last-Modified cache). - duckspending_view() and connection_view.duckspending_connection() integrate with the RStudio / Positron Connections pane. The pane preview pins wide partitioned tables to a single Parquet file at plan time so previewing source_procurement_transaction is <1 s over the network instead of ~130 s. DuckLake metadata tables (leaf names starting with _ or ducklake_) are hidden in the pane but remain visible via DBI::dbListObjects(). - Cached-catalog data path is rewritten in place to the absolute R2 URL on first attach; the probe opens the catalog read-only so concurrent R sessions don't fight over a writer lock. - Vignettes: getting-started, cross-snapshot, sql-escape-hatch. - R CMD check passes 0 errors / 0 warnings / 0 notes.
