-## Response Structure
+## POST /preview
+
+Preview data from ABAP tables or CDS views directly from the ABAP system. This is useful for exploring table/view contents without writing queries.
+
+### Request Body
+
+```json
+{
+  "objects": ["SFLIGHT", "ZC_MY_CDS_VIEW"],
+  "type": "TABL",
+  "limit": 10,
+  "where": "CARRID = 'AA'",
+  "columns": ["CARRID", "CONNID", "PRICE"]
+}
+```
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `objects` | Array | List of table/view names (required) |
+| `type` | String | Object type (TABL, DDLS). Auto-detected if not specified |
+| `limit` | Integer | Maximum rows to return (default: 10, max: 100) |
+| `where` | String | WHERE clause filter (e.g., `CARRID = 'AA'`) |
+| `columns` | Array | Column names to display (optional) |
+
+### Supported Object Types
+
+| Type | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| TABL | Database table |
+| DDLS | CDS View/Entity |
+
+### Auto-Detection Rules
+
+If `type` is not specified, the system detects the type from TADIR:
+- CDS views (DDLS) are preferred if found in TADIR
+- Otherwise defaults to table (TABL)

+```bash
+1. Edit ABAP file(s)
+2. git add && git commit && git push
+3. abapgit-agent pull --files file.clas.abap
+4. Check for errors in output
+5. If "Error updating where-used list" → use inspect for details

+
+### Description
+Preview data from ABAP tables or CDS views directly from the ABAP system. This command retrieves sample data rows to help developers understand table/view contents without needing to query manually.

+
+### Usage
+```bash
+# Preview table data (auto-detect type)
+abapgit-agent preview --objects SFLIGHT
+
+# Preview CDS view data
+abapgit-agent preview --objects ZC_MY_CDS_VIEW --type DDLS
+
+# Preview with explicit type
+abapgit-agent preview --objects SFLIGHT --type TABL
+
+# Preview with row limit
+abapgit-agent preview --objects SFLIGHT --limit 20
+
+# Preview with WHERE clause filter
+abapgit-agent preview --objects SFLIGHT --where "CARRID = 'AA'"
+
+# Preview specific columns only
+abapgit-agent preview --objects SFLIGHT --columns CARRID,CONNID,FLDATE,PRICE
+
+# Vertical format (for wide tables)
+abapgit-agent preview --objects SFLIGHT --vertical
+
+# JSON output (for scripting/AI processing)
+abapgit-agent preview --objects SFLIGHT --json
