## Products

- onecall: One Call weather data — active, proxied; routes: current, timeline/1min, timeline/15min, timeline/1h, timeline/1day; licence ODbL-1.0 (OpenWeather).

## Rules of conduct

- Every error carries a code and, where a next step exists, a machine-readable next_action.
- Only 2xx data responses are billed; upstream failures are never charged.
- No credential ever appears in a URL. Keys are opaque bearers in the Authorization header.
