For the Python function I could do this:
```python
db[""cats""].create({
    ""id"": int,
    ""name"": str,
    ""score"": int, 
    ""weight"": float,
}, pk=""id"", not_null={""weight""}, defaults={""score"": 1})
```

The CLI tool only every creates tables as a side-effect of a `sqlite-utils insert` or `sqlite-utils upsert`. I can have them accept optional arguments, `--not-null colname` and `--default colname value`:
```
echo '{""name"": ""Cleo"", ""age"": 4, ""score"": 2}' | \
  sqlite-utils insert dogs.db dogs - \
    --not-null age \
    --not-null name \
    --default score 1

```python

And this:
