We have a lot of event data in ClickHouse and need an API that can serve it in pages so our frontend doesn't load everything at once.

Can you build an API at localhost:3000/api/events that supports pagination?

Let me build the API. Based on the exploration, I need to:

1. Create a Node.js project in /workspace with Express
2. Connect to ClickHouse at localhost:8123, database analytics
3. Serve GET /api/events with limit, offset pagination
4. Return { data, total, hasMore }
5. Order by ...

The API is running at `localhost:3000/api/events`. Here's what it does:

**Endpoint:** `GET /api/events?limit=20&offset=0`

**Pagination params:**
- `limit` — items per page (default 20, max 1000)
- `offset` — rows to skip (default 0)

**Response shape:**

Ensure consistent ordering \n(e.g. by event_ts, event_id) so pages don't overlap or skip rows.\nAPI must handle limit and offset (or equivalent) query params.\n```\n\n### **Assertions to Pass**\n\n1. **Functional**: API responds, returns data array\n2. **Correct**: Total matches source count (15000), limit respected\n3. **Robust**: Offset returns different pages, no `SELECT *` queries\n4. **Production**: Connection env vars available, no hardcoded connections, README/docs present\n5. **Performant**: First page under 300ms\n\n### **No Existing Project Files**\n- No `package.json` in `/workspace` or root\n- No Docker compose files\n- No existing API code\n- Project is ready for implementation from scratch"
