Shared patterns

Version argument — every read tool takes version: string in canonical form dtpr@YYYY-MM-DD[-beta], as returned by list_schema_versions. There are no aliases.
Errors — see Errors for the canonical code list. Common codes: invalid_arguments, unknown_version, element_not_found, unknown_variant, parse_error.
Locale filtering — pass locales: ["en"] (or omit) to keep only specific locales in localized strings.
Field projection — list_elements / get_element / get_elements accept fields: ["id","title",…] or fields: "all".
Pagination — list_elements returns meta.next_cursor when there are more rows. Pass it back as cursor: "…". See REST pagination.
