898ronin/api — reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a small Python Django API using the existing project setup. I want it to manage simple records, like items, with the basic actions a normal admin would need, add a record, see the full list, view one record, edit it, and delete it.

Please make it work locally with a simple database, so the data is still there after I restart the server. Add clear validation and friendly error responses when something is missing or wrong. Keep the structure clean and easy to understand, because this looks like an early project and I may want to extend it later.

Also include a quick way for me to try the API, either through the browser, an admin page, or simple curl examples. Update or add brief instructions for installing requirements, running migrations, starting the server, and testing the main endpoints. Look up current docs online if you need to.
