Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. For integration with upstream/downstream systems, a model's OPTIONS endpoint might need to be customized, say to allow a different CORS response.

HEAD would complete the support for all "read" verbs. It just needs to return what GET will return, minus the payload.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the routing mechanism in the codebase to understand how HTTP methods are currently handled and implement support for OPTIONS and HEAD verbs following similar patterns.
