Classical (Ptolemy / Lilly) essential dignities table: domicile, exaltation degree, day/night/common triplicity rulers, detriment and fall, plus Lilly’s scoring weights.

fields
string

Comma-separated dotted paths, relative to data, to keep in the response. A path is applied to every element of an array, so planets.name means the name of each planet. Paths that match nothing come back in _fields_unmatched; a list where nothing matches at all is a 400, because an empty object would be a confident wrong answer.

Example
planets.name,planets.longitude
precision
integer
<= 15

Round every non-integer number in the response to this many decimal places. Integers are left alone, because an id is not a measurement. Ecliptic longitudes ship with fourteen decimals by default; 2 is about a tenth of an arcminute.
